The gospel of Jesus Christ is urgent for our children. Our kids need to hear the gospel early, often, and repeatedly–just like we do!
Share the gospel. Every day.
We don’t share the good news of Jesus Christ with our kids so they will “make a decision for Jesus”. You can let go of that pressure. No, we share the good news so that we are faithful to our calling as Christian parents. We share the gospel so our kids will know it by heart.
For a fun (and eternally productive) project this week, print out this poster of this short gospel message. Hang it in your dining room. Rehearse it each day with the kids. When they know it by heart, work on learning the Bible verses together. This set comes with both the ESV and KJV.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ
We all need to be reminded of these gospel verses for salvation:
- God is holy. (Isaiah 43:3a)
- We have all fallen short of his holy and righteous standard. (Romans 3:23)
- Our sin has separated us from him. (Isaiah 59:2)
- God made a way for us to be restored to himself by sending Jesus, the Son of God and God the Son, to die for our sins–in our place. (Ephesians 2:4-9)
- To be saved, we must:
- Believe in Jesus. (John 3:16)
- Confess him with our mouths. (Romans 10:9-10)
- God the Holy Spirit lives within us once we are saved. (2 Timothy 1:14)
- The Holy Spirit grows fruit in our lives. (Galatians 5:22-23)
- He helps us repent of our sins. (Luke 13:3)
- We can trust the Holy Spirit to grow fruit while we seek to abide in Jesus through reading the Bible and praying. (John 15:5)
This simple lesson is one you’ll want to repeat to your kids over and over while they’re growing up. It’s truly the most important thing you can teach them.
