Sunday Schools and Youth Groups, Part 3: The History of Sunday Schools (Mat. 19:4)

Summary

The sermon discusses the history and scriptural perspective on Sunday schools and youth groups, emphasizing that these are modern inventions not authorized by Scripture. The speaker advocates for family integrated worship, where families worship together rather than segregating by age or group. He stresses the biblical responsibility of parents to teach their children God's ways rather than relying on Sunday schools or other institutions. The history of Sunday schools is traced back to the late 1700s in Britain, originally as a means to teach poor children to read, not primarily for Bible education.
