Equipping Children’s Ministry Volunteers
Whether you are part of your church’s children’s ministry, or thinking about serving in children’s ministry, the Children’s Ministry Volunteer Handbook is for you!
Too often, people view children’s ministry as a place to drop off the kids so the adults can listen to the sermon, uninterrupted. They fail to see the power and potential of children’s ministry.
In Matthew 19:13-14, Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” While we may see the naivete of children as a detriment, Jesus sees it as a strength—there is beauty in the simplicity of the gospel. Investing in children’s ministry is a worthwhile and crucial part of the church.
This practical handbook features insights from six authors, all experts in the field of children’s ministry, with over 100 years of combined experience. They will help guide you through the challenges and joys of children’s ministry—and how it is vital to the Kingdom of God.
