Session Description
A newer church took the concept of teaching our children words that are important to build and maintain relationships with others–like words of thanks and apology–to develop the concept of liturgical words which we use in our relationship with God or during worship. They coined the term "vertical habits" to describe this practice and it as a very effective framework of which to build these terms of growing in our relationship to God and worship. This panel hosted by Betty Grit discusses these "vertical habits." This concept is also being workshopped and implemented in more established churches where most people have grown in the church their entire lives.

Children and Youth Learn and Practice "Vertical Habits"
A newer church took the concept of teaching our children words that are important to build and maintain relationships with others–like words of thanks and apology–to develop the concept of liturgical words which we use in our relationship with God or during worship. They coined the term "vertical habits" to describe this practice and it as a very effective framework of which to build these terms of growing in our relationship to God and worship. This panel hosted by Betty Grit discusses these "vertical habits." This concept is also being workshopped and implemented in more established churches where most people have grown in the church their entire lives.
