22:6
Why we're focusing on getting children and teens to read the Bible with new
Bible reading ministries
New church: Christ the King Lutheran begins to minister to 22:6 kids



People are not reading the Bible enough. When Christians don't read the Bible it causes them to fall into behavior and thinking that can lead to sin. The Devil uses sin to attack humans. God knows this and that is why the church tells people to read the Bible and apply its lessons to life.
Beginning in fall of 2026, God began to bless 22:6 with two new Bible reading ministries. One is aimed at teens aged 13 to 19. On Sundays, they read and discuss a chapter of the Bible and snack on pizza. On Wednesday, kids of all ages gather under a tent on a playground and a 22:6 Activities Trainer reads the Bible to them. So far 25 to 30 kids are involved. They are coming and bringing friends. Praise God! Pray that they will learn God's word and apply the lessons to life. Pray for conversions to faith in Jesus Christ.

22:6 reached out to children and families in Waskom, Texas and Marshall, Texas. They were given Bible flyers on what Christians believe and what God's plan is for marriage. Which is that only men and women should marry. The outreach was well received. It's inspiring to see all the Pro-Life billboards in Waskom. On the way back to Louisiana, there was a brief outreach in the 70th Street area in Shreveport. One family and friends participated in a prayer for God's guidance and blessings in this New Year 2026 and beyond.

The Bible says God's plan for marriage is that 1 man marries 1 woman. Period. No other marriage plan is approved by God or the Bible. Read: Genesis 2:24, Leviticus 18:22, Romans Chapter 1.

What does 22:6 mean?
22:6 comes from Proverbs 22:6 in the Bible which says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
"Without you, I would have had no one to teach me about Jesus."--A 9 year old participant
100% of participants in 22:6 polled said, as adults they will take their children to church.
