Passing The Baton Of Faith To The Next Generation

May 7, 2023 • Pastor Chad Thompson • Deuteronomy 6:4–12, Judges 2:6–10

Bottom line: When we incite the wonder of God in children, model our faith's authenticity before them, and partner with others to influence them, we can pass the baton of faith to "our" next generation.


We have to think with the end in mind. We need to be "next generation" thinkers. We need to think about how to pass a genuine "saving" faith and authentic "living" faith to the next generation, ie our own next generation, our children. One hundred years from now only one thing will matter and that is a person's personal relationship with God. If it is the only thing that matters one hundred years from now, it better matter to us today, because it does matter.


This message looks at three things we can do as parents and as a church to help pass the baton of faith to "our" next generation.

1) Incite the wonder of God in the next generation

2) Illuminate the authenticity of your faith to the next generation

3) Influence the next generation with strategic relationships
