A friend of mine is a teacher in a town near Springboro, Ohio. We were discussing how she was trying to include Jesus in her lesson about Christmas, without getting fired. She told me that not one of the children, in her 2nd grade class, go to church.
How is that possible? Not even one child, out of a class of over 20, goes to church. They don't even know about the simplest of Bible stories. Why is it that we took prayer out of school? I have to wonder if it wasn't so that our kids wouldn't start asking questions about God, and we might have to get up early on Sunday and take them to church.
I'm sorry, but that is one of the saddest things I have heard. I worry, what has the world come to that so many don't even know why we celebrate Christmas. Christ came to earth to save us. He left heaven, to be a cold little baby, born in a barn and our kids don't even know that this was the greatest gift we could have ever been given. We really need to encourage our kids to invite a friend to church, and pray for those who don't know Christ our Savior.
