One of the evangelistic ideas for Moore College mission this year is a night held at the school where our host church takes Scripture lessons. There will be a panel taking questions and speaking on the topic of 'Answering your children's questions about God.'
My favourite Scripture moment from when I taught at Lidcombe Primary was when I was talking about the background to an Old Testament story being a war between God's people Israel and the country next door. One of the children put up their hand and politely asked, "Was that the first world war?"
Kids have no concept of time, hey? If I was quicker on my feet I would have answered "No, the first world war was between Adam and God." Though in hindsight I'm not sure how well wit works with children.
