Kids Minstry from Anywhere
Find New Ways to Disciple Your Kids
Because of COVID our spaces are emptier and quieter than they have ever been. We are all mourning the loss of gathering. We all want to be back together.
Your default reaction might be to wait and watch and wonder: what’s going to happen next? When will this all be over, so we can get back to normal? But while we wait, time is slipping away.
We can’t afford to wait for the old normal to come back. We can’t afford to wait for our kids to come back to us. We have to actively, urgently, seek out new ways that we can go to them wherever they are. The mission is too important. The gospel is too urgent.
Here you’ll find strategy ideas, eBooks, training videos, and Bible study resources to help you reach, teach, and disciple your kids in new ways.
