Leading Your Child to Christ: Biblical Direction for Sharing the Gospel

Leading Your Child to Christ

Biblical Direction for Sharing the Gospel

You want to lead your child to Christ, but you often wonder exactly what you should be saying and sharing with your child. How do you know what parts of the gospel to share?  How do you know if your child is really understanding the good news of the gospel or just trying to please you?  With decades of experience in children’s ministry and as a father, Marty Machowski outlines the core truths of the gospel and explains them in ways a child can understand in Leading Your Child to Christ. Using reflective questions, he helps you understand how to live the gospel openly with your children, allowing them to see how Christ is changing you, as well as how he desires to love and bring change to their lives.

About the Author

Author Marty Machowski is a Family Life Pastor at Covenant Fellowship Church in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, where he has served on the pastoral staff for more than twenty years. Marty leads Promise Kingdom, the gospel-centered children’s ministry of Covenant Fellowship. He and his wife Lois and their six children reside in West Chester, Pennsylvania. He is also the Executive Editor for Children’s Resources at New Growth Press.

Marty Machowski is passionate about teaching the gospel to children through family Bible study time as well as kids Sunday school, so he writes for both audiences. He explains, “As parents and children’s ministry workers, we must make sure that every child in our care knows the gospel of Jesus Christ and where they stand in relationship to the gospel.” His kids Bible materials, The Gospel Story for Kids products, are designed to do just that.

Marty Machowski, who studied Industrial Design in college, learned to combine the creativity of art with the discipline of mechanical engineering. He reflects on how his background specifically prepared him for his current ministry as an author. “Thinking up the hundreds of object lessons for the Gospel Story for Kids curriculum used problem solving creativity I learned as an industrial designer. It was exciting and challenging to create fun games and object lessons for kids which communicated the biblical concepts of the weekly lessons.”
