Teaching Children to Have Faith
Faith is having inner strength and confidence based upon a trust in a higher power. Children learn to have faith by watching those around them and seeing the way they act and react. Pray together. Keep your language clean. Set a good example, showing your faith by the way you live.
Also teach by precept. Share your thoughts and feelings about sacred things, as appropriate. Tell them personal stories that are true, simple, and sincere, without exaggeration or embellishment. If you sincerely say, “This happened to me,” it adds credibility to your words. There is no room to dispute what you have said. Avoid telling them sensational or speculative stories, as these tend to create doubt, rather than strengthen faith. First or second hand stories are best, after that they get really “iffy,” especially a story that has been going around on the Internet. However, you could invite someone to tell their own true story to the children.
Consider a service project where the children demonstrate their faith and love of God by their actions. We love whom we serve.
“ I will show thee my faith by my works.”
James 2:18
