Launching a New Kids Church!
 

This past Sunday was exciting! It was the culmination of a summer of prayer, dreaming, planning, networking, recruiting and team building – but we launched our ALL NEW kids church program for this fall called The Outpost. Launching a new theme is exciting! But it also is strategic. As a ministry, our leadership team established four aims for our children’s ministry:

  • Engage Children
  • Delight Parents
  • Excite Volunteers
  • Bring Visitors Back!

We are driven by the vision of Church becoming the highlight of a child’s week – because when kids encounter God, their lives are changed, and eternity is impacted!

 

How, then, do you create an experience that will engage kids, delight parents, excite volunteers and bring visitors back? You create something unique, fun, interactive, and meaningful.

 

Read more about how we did this at my church, and see pictures of the transformation on my blog.

Is Excellence Killing the Church?
 

What kind of church are you building? An excellent one? Or a good one? Sam Luce explains the difference, and how we can make the Gospel more relevant. 

 

"If you regularly attend church conferences you will no doubt hear the rallying cry for excellence in the church. In some ways this is a good thing. I am all for pastors working hard and doing all they can do to reach people with the greatest message ever told. Where excellence starts to kill the church is when we make our church a polished flawless exhibition that we invite people to be impressed by. 

 

When the church takes its cue from the business world and perfects its processes so that it can extend its reach and solidify its brand, we have lost our way."

Looking for the PERFECT HALLOWEEN OUTREACH for the kids in your neighborhood?

We have an amazing opportunity at Halloween. We don't have to knock on doors to share the Gospel. Hundreds or thousands of kids may be knocking on YOUR DOOR! When they do, you can give them something that could change their lives.

 

For less than $2 each, you get 50 CDs packaged individually in sleeves ready to give to kids. Give them away at Harvest and Fall events, pass them out to visitors, or give to families to share with kids in their neighborhoods who don't know Christ.

 

Don't just give out candy and cultivate goodwill. Give the Gospel and the gift of God's Word as well. Even better than a gospel tract!
