_Research by Barna indicates that 75 to 85 percent of adult Christians made their initial faith commitment before age 15. At 32%, the highest probability of people accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior occurs between the ages of 5 and 13. That means sharing Christ with younger children could have a 5 to 8 times greater impact than evangelizing the same number of older children or adults.

Despite this age group’s openness to the gospel, Barna’s evidence also suggests that children’s ministry is not the highest priority for churches. About 41 percent of those at church on any given Sunday are under age 18. Yet, less than 15 percent of the church budgets go to youth and children’s ministries.

Campus Crusade for Christ has developed some of the most effective and widely used evangelism tools in the last half century. Think about the impact of the Four Spiritual Laws tract and its derivatives. More than 3 billion copies of the Four Laws have been printed and distributed worldwide. It is popular because of its simple, clear presentation of the gospel. For decades Campus Crusade has offered children’s versions of these tracts. But this year, they wanted to take it a step further.
