Hi everyone! I'm sorry I have been so long since the last article that was posted. It has been a crazy few weeks around here, and I am sure it has been much the same for all of you!
Let's continue on the faith development theme and comment on this article about helping kids own their faith. It will be good to help us focus in on helping those kids that DO grow up in the church transition to a more mature faith. It also presents some intriguing thoughts on just how to do that. Which ones do you agree with? Are there any ideas you disagree with?

Faith Development
As we prepare for camp, we come knowing that each of our campers comes with a different background in faith development that is influenced by their past experiences. We also know faith is developmental in terms of their age and how they view life in general. This blog post from last year gives a good description of how important community is in faith development by stage.
