3 Reasons to Teach Your Kids the Bible

December 3, 2025 By Peter Krol

Ken Mbugua offers 3 reasons to teach your kids the Bible:

  1. It is your God-given, joyful privilege.

For those reasons, we’ve sought to provide help with teaching not only the content of the Bible but also the skills for children to read and understand it themselves.

As Mbugua declares, “The call to teach our children about God is not a modern idea but a timeless command rooted in Scripture.”
