Teach Your Children They are Whole

Original Post By: Elizabeth Esther
In her post Elizabeth reflects on a powerful message that she received as a child in her church, the message is a simple one but clear "you are broken, you are unworthy". This sort of message is one that can be deeply damaging for a child and can lead to years of doubt and shame. Elizabeth goes on to talk about the damaging after effects of this message


" Even though I left an abusive church ten years ago, I’m still cleaning up the wreckage of the destructive belief that says I’m deeply, inherently broken"
 
along with the message she wishes the church and parents would teach their children

"When I teach my children the Gospel, I don’t start with: “You are bad, therefore you need Jesus.” I start with: “Before you were born, God loved you.” I start with God’s love and I end with God’s love." 

The message she spreads and wants children to hear is one of love, its one that teaches them that they are whole and that God has loved them from the start.
