My son desperately wants to go to VBS. I have no problem with him going, but I don't want him too confused by what they teach there. I have taught him that God exists and that Jesus was a good man who had a lot of wisdom. I have also taught him that we don't know for sure what happens after you die, but that you do go on -death is not the end.
He is seven years old and I have been careful to answer his questions without heaping too much upon him at this point. I want him to be open minded and use his intellect when it comes to forming his opinions of the spiritual world, rather than judge people or condem someone to hell simply for not believing as he does.
My sister and nephew are going to this VBS as well as several kids from his class. It is a fun week, but I am unsure of how to prepare him for this.Perhaps I will just say "that is how they believe, this is what we believe..." What is your opinion on his going?
