At Calvary Revival Church Chesapeake, we believe the biblical model for ministry and discipleship begins with family. In fact, we have come to understand that without living out our faith at home, it is impossible to truly fulfill the Great Commission and make disciples. After much study and prayer, and after considering all the biblical admonitions concerning the church, family, and ministry to children, our church has moved away from the Sunday School/Children’s Church model. Instead, we are encouraging and equipping parents to oversee the teaching their children receive at church and to take seriously God’s mandate to disciple their children. Families remain together during the services; church time is family time, our family and the family of God. By joining in the main services children will experience the teaching of God’s Word and begin to understand the importance of preaching. Just as we enjoy doing other things together as a family, we should more so enjoy worship, instruction and fellowship as a family along with our brothers and sister in the faith.
