When a child with special needs comes to your church, how can you help that child know Jesus and have a vital relationship with God? Jesus never requires anything but faith--but as Paul says, "How shall they hear?" Children with special needs may not fit into typical kids' ministry programs, frustrating parents, children and teachers, too.
