I found this great discussion at internetmonk.com. There is some great feedback in the comments that follow.
How can families with young children have a continuing participation in church life? Is it impossible? Should they worship as a family? Should one parent go with older children?
How can churches make this time more manageable for families with young children? Is the answer more nurseries and children’s programs? Or is the answer a different experience of the church altogether?
What’s your experience, both as a family and as a church? And what’s your advice?
