CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL
Second, Sunday School is important because of how people are taught. Sermons are important, but they are one-size-fits-all lectures with little opportunity for discussion or questions. But, in Sunday School, you can ask questions, discuss, and share personal insights and experiences as you really dig into the Scriptures.
Third, Sunday School is important because it is age specific. Preschoolers don't have the same understanding of sin, grace and many other Christian concepts as adults. And, the problems and concerns that junior high students face are much different from those of senior citizens. That's why, in Sunday School, we divide students according to their age, interest and education so that they can get the maximum benefits from each lesson.
Fourth, Sunday School is important because of the fellowship that it promotes. We all need friends. We all need Christian friends, persons that we can share with, confide in, laugh with and be accountable to. And, Sunday School is one of the best places to see such Christian relationships develop.
