“Family Discipleship in a Small Congregation,” a guide produced by LCMS Family Ministry, provides practical ideas congregations can use to help parents implement a family discipleship routine in their homes that will help both parents and children grow in the faith.
It also provides questions that each congregation can ask to help focus on providing family-friendly events, and it explains how the primary role of the congregation in family discipleship is “to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ” (Eph. 4:12). This ministry happens both at church and at home.
Building a strong family discipleship program is possible and this guide provides tips to help, no matter the size of your congregation.
