SO DON’T ASK!

Luke 18:16 (NRSV) - But Jesus called for them and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs."

To give a "children's sermon"
is quite a daunting task,
and many pastors stumble
when they begin to ask
some simple sounding questions,
their preaching skills to flaunt.
What happens when they don't get
the answers that they want?
With sometimes shocking candor
and innocence a child
can make a congregation
go absolutely wild.
So those who ask a question
of children must have nerve.
If it's too open-ended,
they'll get what they deserve!
