Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like an imperceptible virus, children’s ministries across the nation have been infected with a crisis of leadership. While on the surface they can sustain the status quo, their true potential and effectiveness is being invisibly undermined by shortcomings in leadership, vision, training, wellness, and spiritual maturity. Complicated by burnout, waning volunteer commitment, and troubling cultural shifts, the task before these leaders has never been more perilous. Yet despite these mounting challenges, the war for the hearts and minds of the next generation demands that we level up in our leadership. Inspired by her unwavering commitment to excellence in children’s ministry, Esther Moreno invites leaders to soberly assess the impact their leadership has on the health and vitality of their own ministry spaces. Leveraging her own 20+ year journey in children’s ministry, Esther goes beyond the superficial symptoms to offer root cause remedies for the common leadership deficits preventing children's ministry leaders from becoming everything God has called them to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many children’s ministries are a flurry of activity, run by dedicated volunteers and staff who put in long hours and work hard for the good of the children and parents they serve. Yet despite good intentions, many children’s ministries today are not effective. They lack purpose and intentionality. A twenty-five year veteran of children’s ministry in the local church, pastor Steve Adams has ministered to families in multiple churches, from tiny church plants to his present position at Saddleback Church. In this book, Steve applies the revolutionary insights of the Purpose Driven Church to children’s ministry and leads readers on a journey of discovery, showing them how to develop an intentional ministry process that moves children toward spiritual health while building a healthy ministry environment for those who work with kids. You will learn how to ask and answer five simple but powerful questions: Why are we on this journey? Where are you and where are you going? Who are we trying to reach? How will we move our children towards spiritual health? What are the essential elements necessary for the journey? There is no single key to a successful children’s ministry, nor is there only one way that works for everyone. But there is a proven process you can follow and Steve shows how children’s ministries all over the world are reaching their God-given potential by discovering their biblical purpose, avoiding the traps of frustration and burnout.
