Because nothing says “radical hospitality” like a “no children in church” sign. Sheesh!
From the article, the two United Methodists churches explicitly welcome children in worship, criers and all. Represent!

I'm dumbfounded!
nurseries are pretty cool.

I can't imagine visiting a church of that size for the first time and leaving a 1-year-old with strangers at a 2-story indoor playground. The whole concept sounds so authoritarian. I rebel!
I wonder if have a similar sign barring people with colds. All that coughing can be distracting, you know.
Of course, that would affect the well-to-do elderly in the congregation and not just the young adults with children, so I doubt that would be approved.
very wrong. very different from what Jesus himself had said.
What's the point of having children who don't understand sitting in church being a distraction to those that want to hear a message? All churches provide nurseries, always thought it lazy on the part of parents who didn't take their children/babies there.
Picture didn't show up in yourpost, so you loose a bit.
