What should a kids pastor do first?
Most leaders jump straight into programs, curriculum, events, volunteer recruiting, and problem solving. But before you decide what your ministry does, you need to decide what your ministry is.
In this episode, Karl introduces The Kidology Way and explains why every children's ministry needs a clear philosophy of ministry. You'll discover why so many leaders feel pulled in a hundred directions and how a simple, biblical framework can bring clarity, confidence, and long-term effectiveness.
Before you build a ministry, make sure you know what you're building.
