Noise in Church

Is your church child-friendly? You may assume they are, but how well do they tolerate disruptive children? Are they viewed as a nuisance or as an asset? It’s tempting for young parents to think their kids will never be anything less than perfect. This short video is a great discussion starter to address the challenge of making churches more sensitive to families.

Small-Group and Leadership Questions:

Watch the video and ask participants to respond to the following questions:

1. When is your church the noisiest?
2. Is the noise level in your sanctuary distracting?
3. Can you think of why mothers might not want to use the Mother’s Room?
4. Could the problem in this video have been solved without negative confrontation?
5. Which would you rather have, a quiet dead church or a noisy growing one?
