| "...teach to evangelize... evangelize
to teach" J. Irvin Overholtzer, founder
of CEF
"I highly recommend TCE to any Christian who has a burden to reach lost children and train Christian children to live for Christ. I appreciate the emphasis on a balanced Christian experience that makes Christ preeminent in the child's personal life, home life, church and school." Warren W. Wiersbe "A child of five, if properly instructed, can as readily believe and be regenerated as anyone." Charles F. Spurgeon "The only way on God's earth you will solve the problem of reaching the masses is by getting hold of the children." "It is not the will of your Father which is in Heaven, that one of these little ones should perish." Jesus Christ |
