Church curriculum people, please read this....

The lessons are so mind-numbing boring. It's not the teachers. It's you, the curriculum people. Of course the teachers don't know how to teach. They plumbers and hair stylists. The manuals should make up for that, but instead have dumb questions and canned answers. No interesting conversations. Just safe and boring, offending no one and pleasing no one. I coax my teenagers out of bed to go to church and then hear their report after church. They hate it. It's the walking (sitting) dead in there. The teachers ask questions that have a predetermined answer, and none of the kids want to respond. My son asked an interesting question and the teachers got nervous and quickly moved on. I know my kids aren't exaggerating because it's the same way in Gospel Doctrine. We either need to go to one hour church or reinvent the curriculum.
