Download or read book Children s Ministry on Purpose written by Steven J. Adams and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 289 pages. 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.

Download or read book 20 20 Vision written by Raymond Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 2023-05-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have been in generational ministry for nearly forty years and can sav that I have seen possibly every form of kids ministry out there. Many have been a hive of activities bursting onto the scene, and then disappearing as quickly as they came. This unfortunately seems to be the legacy of many kids' ministries as they sought to entertain another generation. The question one must always ask: "Where and what is the fruit of those ministries?" That is what I love about Ray and Nancy Baldwin. The fruit of their ministry speaks for itself. They have been passionate about equipping a generation to operate in the Kingdom of God here and now. Walking into a number of the services I was astounded by what I saw. It was something I had not personally seen or witnessed before. A generation ministering beyond their shoe size effortlessly encountering God's presence and power. May you be blessed as you read this book. May you be encouraged and equipped as they share their hearts and the mandate that God has placed upon their lives. This is a dangerous book! Your kids' ministry will never be the same, and neither will you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical Strategies for Gospel-Centered Children's Ministry When building a children's ministry at a church, there is so much to consider: Which curriculum should we use? How many volunteers do we need? How do we keep parents in the loop? And that's before we run into stalled check-in computers, missing activity sheets, and floors that need to be vacuumed.

This practical resource covers a variety of topics ranging from creating child protection policies to putting together lesson plans to catechism, helpful for children's ministers and volunteers alike as they disciple children with the powerful message of the gospel.
