Explain this in Children’s worship…
The church in this article is inviting “responsible handgun owners” to bring their guns to church to celebrate the 4th of July and the 2nd Amendment. According to the article, they will promote gun safety.
hmmm…Interesting. That would be a difficult lesson in Children’s worship. At school the students are not allowed to make guns out of the Legos or blocks or even point their fingers like guns. Oh, when questioned about their Lego creations, they have a safe answer: “It’s a wand or I’m a police officer.” Something safe like that.
Of course, gun safety can be taught at church and in children’s classes, but it definitely would be a creative lesson, deserving much study and preparation time.
I don’t think that’s the route I need to take in children’s worship with the children in attendance at my current church at the current time.
Here is a follow-up link to the church in Kentucky bringing unloaded guns in holsters to church.
