Good News Club Targets Children Across U.S. for Summer Salvation; Portland Fights Back

The Good News Club curriculum is filled with over 5000 references to sin and thousands more to obedience, punishment, and Hell. It stresses Old Testament narratives of a retributive God who must punish sin, warns children that they will suffer an eternity in Hell if they refuse to believe, and stresses complete obedience as the supreme value. Good News Club tells children as young as preschoolers that they have "dark" and "sinful" hearts, were born that way, and "deserve to die" and "go to Hell."
