THE MOST EFFECTIVE MINISTRY TOOL
We live in a rapidly changing culture where something "new" is always
just around the corner! Keeping up in ministry can be a real challenge
as we seek to engage today's kids with today's tools. As the saying
goes, "Just when you think you have all the answers, they change all
the questions."
This week, we're excited to feature a Q&A with Chris Waters, a pioneer in reaching today's
kids via media. In our forums, he'll be leading a discussion regarding the challenges of
engaging today's media-savvy kids. In addition, we'll hear more about his
own efforts to capture the imaginations of today's kids with his award
winning video series, Angel Wars. (Don't miss the Kidology exclusive
video clip of the latest installment in the series... hitting stores today!)
Remember that no
matter what tools may come and go, the most effective ministry tool
will always be YOU... praying, studying, teaching,
loving and just being Jesus to the kids God brings in to your life. So
be hi-tech, be current, be cutting edge, but never stop being YOU!
Because
Jesus Loves Children,
Karl D. Bastian - a.k.a. "The Kidologist"

FAMILY MINISTRY: TRADING ONE EXTREME FOR ANOTHER
Are "FIC" (Family Integrated Churches) really better? Or are we merely trading one ineffective extreme for another?
Karl Bastian, the Kidologist, tackles this question in this new article about the challenges of equipping and empowering parents vs. reaching kids who don't have the benefit of believing parents.

ROOM RAIDING
From the Network Forums: "Almost every week I find that someone has raided our Kid's Church room for supplies or equipment.
...I have two questions. First, I would like to know how have others dealt with issues like this? And do you think that it is unreasonable that there are some things that I just don't lend out?"
