“Two
combined influences make a greater impact than just two influences.”
We
believe the church is called to partner with parents to raise their kids to Love God, Love People & Serve the World as a
family. Yellow represents the Light of Christ. Red represents the love of a
family. We use the color Orange to illustrate this partnership.
Each child & family will
experience three environments Horizons has created where this partnership
takes place:
The Foyer - Large group
experiences-FamTastic & Bible story times in TotTastic & KidTastic.
The Living Room - Guided play & learning with
specific activities that help kids apply each week’s Bible story in TotTastic
& KidTastic.
The Kitchen - Small group experience where an
adult leader builds relationships with 8-10 kids each week in TotTastic &
KidTastic. The small group leader is
encouraged to “get to know” mom & dad, so the partnership is continued.
“There are two powerful influences
in the world - the church and the home. They both exist because God initiated
them. They both exist because God desires them to use them to demonstrate His
plan of redemption and restoration. If
they work together they can
potentially make a greater impact than if they work alone. They need each
other. Too much is at stake for either one to fail. Their primary task is to
build God’s kingdom in the hearts of men and women, sons and daughters.” - Reggie
