Why Child of a King?

We live in the Golden Age of information, but reading comprehension has sunk. The Church has been given the most profound Truth, but we struggle with Biblical literacy and critical thinking.

God has commanded His followers to actively allow Him to transform us by renewing our minds, but the Christian Church is often seen as anti-intellectual or unwilling to ask hard questions without giving overused platitudes and conversation enders.

The King’s Children need to know the family business and our role in it.

THE PURPOSE & THE POSTURE

Maturity in Christ.

Colossians 1:28–29

We proclaim Him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, so that we may present every man complete in Christ. For this purpose also I labor, striving according to His power, which mightily works within me.
NASB 1995

Thought submitted to Christ.

2 Corinthians 10:5

We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ,
NASB 1995
