A blog put out by Grace Community Church, entitled Pulpit, recently put out a two part series on evangelizing your children (Part 1 & Part 2).  Obviously this is an important issue to think through and one which requires much wisdom.  This is where our evangelism must begin and will naturally pour forth if we have truly embraced the gospel ourselves. 

It is worth reading the whole articles but here are the main points.

Part 1- common pitfalls in evangelizing your kids

1. Oversimplifying the Gospel of Christ

2. Coercing a Profession of Faith

3. Assuming the Reality of Regeneration

4. Assuring the Child of Salvation

5. Rushing the Ordinance of Baptism

Part 2- practical keys to evangelizing your kids

1. Setting a Consistent Example of Godliness

2. Proclaiming the Complete Gospel of Christ

3. Understanding the Biblical Evidences of Salvation

4. Encouraging Possible Signs of Conversion

5. Trusting the Absolute Sovereignty of God
