Is Sunday School Dead or Alive?

Sunday School in the 21st Century is it dead or alive?

What does the future hold for Sunday School? It’s a question that Christian educators working at all levels must ask. Why do we see some Sunday Schools that are exciting and growing? Whilst others are dead, dying or somewhere in between just holding their own, with the same programmes and attendance.

England has a rich history of beginnings and steady growth. Platowing through the latter half of the last century. Today most Sunday Schools fall into the last category - just holding their own.

There seems to be an abandoning of traditional Sunday School lessons in favour of writing their own curriculum. Whilst others used denominational or independent publishing they made major changes to adapt the material to the needs of the children.

The Bible teachs us to " Train a child in the way that they should go:

and when they are old they will not depart from it.

Proverbs Chapter 22 verse 6
