The toy room represents how we interact with our kids. Family matters greatly to God and people who follow Jesus should have a different approach to parenting than the rest of the world. The Gospel influence of parents should show up in the culture the create, the vision the have for their kids, and the priorities they establish.

The next generation is essential to the ongoing advance of the Gospel. It is the responsibility of every disciple of Jesus—parents, grandparents, friends, and people of the church—to raise up the next generation of disciples of Jesus.
