Dancing With the Kids

Posted by chuck maxwell on February 17th, 2009 filed in Chuck's blog

“I have this friend” who was telling me about being at a Valentine’s church event with his wife. Both of his kids were there with dates as well. There was a special moment when he realized that his whole family was on the dance floor at the same time. That would not have happened when my friend was a kid. His parents were way too old and his church not quite that “open.” But he and this church have obviously done something right if kids can come to a church event where their parents are and participate freely and not feel at all awkward or inhibited. Not sure I’ll know the feeling. I’m a pastor and can’t dance anyway. But you never know.
