Shawn says, "It is all about keeping it simple so everyone can run the race together and with The Essentials necessary to create a successful Children's Ministry Department in your church, for your city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children know God. They encounter God in diverse ways as they walk along the spiritual journey. Amidst this diversity, four distinct avenues for connecting with God emerge in the lives of children: word, emotion, symbol, and action. These are the four spiritual styles, broad approaches to spirituality and faith through which children experience God and make sense of their lives in the world around them. Children's Ministry that Fits blends insightful research, relevant theory, and practical ministry into a guidebook for discovering and understanding children's spiritual styles. Drawing from theology, personal experience, and the spiritual lives of children, David M. Csinos offers practical wisdom that will help pastors, parents, and teachers to move beyond one-size-fits-all approaches to children's ministry and begin nurturing the spiritual lives of children in welcoming and inclusive environments.
Download or read book Kids Ministry that Nourishes written by Jana Magruder and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2016-10-15 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does your Kids Ministry provide the nourishment needed for children and families to thrive in the gospel? Much like healthy food is necessary for growth and sustenance, so is the biblical nutrition we serve to our young ones. Just as He said to Peter, Jesus commands us to “feed my lambs.” This means more than crackers and juice, attractional programming, and fun activities. All of these things can be part of Kids Ministry, but should not be the heart of it. Kids Ministry that Nourishes will help guide preschool, children, and preteen leaders in churches of all shapes and sizes to champion a ministry philosophy based on three essential nutrients. Author Jana Magruder shows how these are the nutrients that help Kids Ministries provide the nourishment needed for children and families to thrive in the gospel.
