Is it possible for something similar to happen today? Will children who\u2019ve never been told about Jesus see Him and those who\u2019ve never heard of Him get the message? (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Romans%2015%3A21&amp;version=NIV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Romans 15:21<\/a>).<\/p><p>Can we once again hope to see vast numbers of children and youth imitating and reflecting the life of Jesus wherever they are?<\/p><p>I believe we can.

Are our children encountering images of Jesus sculptured by our cultural assumptions, religious traditions and personal opinions, or do they see Jesus revealed in the Word?<\/p><p>We must eliminate every obstacle preventing children from establishing their identity in the real Jesus. <strong>To birth a Jesus generation, we must strive to teach and model nothing less and nothing more than what it looks like to sound and act like the true Jesus.<\/strong><\/p><p>Is Jesus becoming the primary reason for our children\u2019s existence? The authentic Jesus, not a facsimile of Him, must define who they are and how they think about themselves.<\/p><p>Identifying with a particular brand of religion is not the same as embracing Jesus and being embraced by Him. There\u2019s a world of difference between children who identify with being Baptists, Anglicans, Lutherans, Catholics, or Pentecostals, and children who identify with the person, teachings, and life of Jesus.<\/p><p>Bringing the right Jesus into focus is critical. <strong>Do your children have a religious identity or a Jesus identity?<\/strong> Are their lives defined by doctrinal and denominational beliefs, or are their lives structured and ordered by Jesus?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-60119399 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"60119399\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-24741551\" data-id=\"24741551\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-2352c83d\" data-id=\"2352c83d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6017944b elementor-blockquote--align-right elementor-blockquote--button-skin-bubble elementor-blockquote--skin-border elementor-blockquote--button-view-icon-text elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"6017944b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tDo your children have a religious identity or a Jesus identity?\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-q-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Do+your+children+have+a+religious+identity+or+a+Jesus+identity%3F&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fonehopecanada.ca%2Ffr%2Fhow-to-raise-a-jesus-generation%2F\" class=\"elementor-blockquote__tweet-button\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fab fa-twitter\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-blockquote__tweet-label\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3709701a\" data-id=\"3709701a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-818af29 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"818af29\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f9f1eae\" data-id=\"f9f1eae\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ba18e98 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ba18e98\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We\u2019re heading in the right direction when children look to Jesus to shape and form them into Jesus-looking people. Only when the ways of Jesus become our children\u2019s ways can we say His identity defines their identities.<\/p><h4><span style=\"color: #15b577;\"><strong>Help children inhabit Jesus\u2019 Story.<\/strong><\/span><\/h4><p>To develop their identities in Jesus, children must actively study and contemplate the life of Jesus. If children don\u2019t spend significant time engaging with Jesus\u2019 Story, other stories will shape them. Children need to be embraced by Jesus\u2019 Story and hold onto it as their story.<\/p><p><strong>The more children dwell in His Story; the more His Story will dwell in them.<\/strong> This requires a regular rhythm of reading, reflecting, and responding to God\u2019s Word.<\/p><p>God won\u2019t birth a Jesus generation without a renewal of Bible engagement. A return to God\u2019s Word has underpinned every revival of faith. For a Jesus generation to flourish, children need to connect with Jesus\u2019 Story in ways suited to their preferred learning styles and dispositions.<\/p><p>Every child is unique. Some children like to hear the Story, some need to act it out, others enter into it through play-based approaches, and some make connections through visual mediums. Most children require a combination of different Bible engagement practices to interact with the Story meaningfully.<\/p><p>The most transparent view of Jesus is in the Gospels. Our role is to help children step into the narrative of Jesus\u2019 life, death, resurrection and ascension, and find their part in it. We must immerse children in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John if we\u2019re going to help them know Jesus well enough to model their lives on Him. After all, the primary way for children to centre themselves in Jesus is through seeing what Jesus does, listening to what He says, and understanding who He is.<\/p><h4><span style=\"color: #15b577;\"><strong>Encourage children to live wholeheartedly for Jesus.<\/strong><\/span><\/h4><p>The beliefs and attitudes of significant adults in a child\u2019s life critically influence who they will become. Children thrive when we set high expectations. Claudia Johnson, the wife of President Lyndon B. Johnson, once said, \u201cChildren are apt to live up to what you believe of them.\u201d<\/p><p>We must set high expectations without high pressure. Encourage children to be fully and unreservedly devoted to Jesus. There can be no sitting on the fence. Children can\u2019t have one foot in the world and one foot in the community of faith. It\u2019s all in or all out. Nineteenth-century British missionary Hudson Taylor said, \u201cChrist is either Lord of all, or is not Lord at all.\u201d<\/p><h4><span style=\"color: #15b577;\"><strong>Make it personal.<\/strong><\/span><\/h4><p>Here\u2019s where we get serious about whether we want to raise a generation of children who enthusiastically centre their identity, activity, and witness totally in Jesus. When the music fades, will we be found faithful?<\/p><p><strong>Lukewarm disciple-making in the home will not spawn a Jesus generation. Parents need to take the leading role in their children\u2019s faith formation<\/strong>. Lacklustre faith formation in the church and school will not yield a Jesus generation. Educators and children\u2019s ministry workers must major in Jesus-centric teaching.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-5d2a35a4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5d2a35a4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-4f6f4a8f\" data-id=\"4f6f4a8f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-10a0f45e\" data-id=\"10a0f45e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78c0d481 elementor-blockquote--align-right elementor-blockquote--button-skin-bubble elementor-blockquote--skin-border elementor-blockquote--button-view-icon-text elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"78c0d481\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tLukewarm disciple-making in the home will not spawn a Jesus generation.
