What Makes a Ministry Successful?
 

There is no shortage of books or online articles on success – but what does success look like in Children’s Ministry? You’ll be glad to know the keys to success in kidmin are FREE. They don’t require a big budget or a specific resource. Budgets and resources can help, but don’t be fooled by thinking they are the key. In fact, they can at times lead you away from real success.

 

There are many helpful products and resources available to children’s ministry leaders that can help, but again, at the end of the day, it is not the resources that are key. It is the implementation of these four simple principles. These principles existed before any of the products and resources, and should Christ tarry, they will still be true 100 years from now, long after today’s resources are forgotten. Never mistake the resource for the solution!

 

These four principles are not a trend. They are not a fad. They are not beholden or dependent upon any person or website or product. They are the biblical mandate for children’s ministry, and they have and will stand the test of time.

 

The sooner you begin to wrestle with how to implement these into your ministry, the sooner you will begin to see dramatic results in the lives of your children. Even better, decades from now, you will still be seeing results.

 

So what are the Four Secrets to a successful children’s ministry? Curious? Find out here.
