Kidmin Talk #173 - Unintended Devastating Consequences of Adult Ministry Trends to Kidmin
Pastor Karl opens a big Can of Worms on this podcast with a topic he has discussed privately and in seminary classrooms but never publicly until now. What adult ministry trends have had a negative impact on Children’s Ministry - and how can and should children’s ministry leaders adapt in response? It’s a thought-provoking discussion sure to challenge and stimulate. You've likely never heard this theory before on how some positive trends in adult ministry have had a negative impact on children's ministry. Stewards of kids ministry need to react wisely and proactively - the future is at stake.

The Great Commission - Matthew 28:18-20
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 1Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
