Don’ts
1
Don’t Make Assumptions Don’t assume that the child is unsaved. Don’t assume that every child is the same. Get to know the child.
2
Don’t Be Disrespectful Keep your phone on silent. Show genuine love and respect in the way you speak with the child.
3
Don’t Confuse the Child Avoid using spiritual jargon. Use words that the child can understand.
4
Don’t Only Ask Yes/No Questions Ask a variety of yes/no and open-ended questions to check on the child’s understanding.
5
Don’t Frighten the Child into Accepting the Gospel Don’t dwell on the topic of hell.
6
Don’t Think That Your Job is Over Once the Child Accepts Christ Continue to follow-up with the child. If you can’t do this personally, connect the child with a local church.
