Two weeks ago, we published a survey on preaching. One of our commenters, JND, suggested that we post a survey on Sunday School. So, here is your chance to express your opinions about Sunday School. In many denominations Sunday School is just a program for children; however, in the SBC we provide classes for all ages. Chuck Kelly in his book on evangelism in the SBC (How They Did It) posits that evangelism through the Sunday School was a key factor in the growth of the SBC. I certainly agree with that. Sadly, it seems fewer churches emphasize Sunday School these days, and fewer still use Sunday School as an evangelistic method. Still, most SBC churches offer Sunday School, and here is your opportunity to comment.
- Do you attend Sunday School? Why or Why Not?
- Does your Sunday School use curriculum from Lifeway? If so, which one?
- What teaching style do you or your teacher use? Lecture, discussion, small groups?
- Should a female teach a class comprised of both women and men?
- How has Sunday School changed during your lifetime?
- Do you have any pet peeves about Sunday School?
For example, I hate it when the teacher just reads the quarterly to the class.
- How could Sunday School be improved?
Ok, dear readers, share your answers and opinions.
