Instead of distracting a crying, sullen or energetic child with books, toys or cellphones, try refocusing them on elements of the service. “Look, there’s the bread and the wine. Can you pray like the presider? Where’s the water? What words do you know from the ‘Holy, Holy, Holy’ or the Lord’s Prayer?” The more you go, the more your children will answer those questions for you.
J. Arthur Blyth is the father of two young children and is married to a pastor. He does other things when nobody has a skinned knee.
