Sunday morning shouldn't feel like survival. In this episode of Discipleship for Dads, Kevin Swanson, Todd Strawser, Bill Roach, and Danny Craig talk through how to actually help your children engage in corporate worship — not endure it.
Their conviction is simple: kids belong in the service, sitting under the preached Word alongside the whole body of Christ. But how do you get a two-year-old through a two-hour service? The men get honest and practical, sharing what's worked (and flopped) in their own families over the years.

What you'll hear:

• Why worship is a 3-day experience — and how Saturday night sets up Sunday

• The dad's heart problem behind every rushed, distracted Sunday morning

• Age-by-age tactics: toy bags and tracing sheets for the little ones, note-taking for the older ones

• How to teach even a 4-year-old to sing (hint: it starts at bedtime)

• "Downloading" the sermon on the way home — without roasting the pastor for lunch

• Sending your kids out with a job: someone to encourage, someone to pray for, someone to serve


Out of the mouths of babes and nursing infants, You have ordained strength (Psalm 8:2). Let's raise a generation that loves the gathering of God's people.
