Summary

Today on The Sword and The Trowel, Tom Ascol and Graham Gunden talk about children in times of gathered church worship. We have a responsibility to raise our children in the Lord, but what does that look like on a Sunday morning when they're wiggly and fussing? Tom and Graham share their perspectives both as Pastors and Fathers, and offer some challenges to the mainstream thinking about children in church.
