The Bible is an adult book, written with language and concepts most suitable for adults. That, however, doesn't mean children can't learn from it. They too need the transforming work of Scripture in their lives. This PowerPoint presentation looks at how their developmental characteristics affect the way you teach the Bible to them.
When merely read silently at a normal pace, without stopping to reflect on or discuss the questions, the presentation is approximately 8 minutes.
