You have been called to serve in children's ministry. It is an important and rewarding calling. But it's not always easy. There are frustrations and difficulties. At times you might feel tired and overlooked. You might question if what you do matters. There might come a day when you reach the point of burnout and think about giving up.

But children's ministry is worth it.

Week in and week out you have the opportunity to share the love of Jesus with boys and girls. You are doing more than babysitting or just passing out cookies and coloring sheets. You are sharing the Gospel, discipling believers. You are making an eternal difference. You have the BEST. JOB. EVER.

This leadership devotional is for you, kidmin leaders. Allow yourselves to be grounded in the Word of God and strengthened by His message to you, each week. Remember, since God has called you, He has equipped you to do His work. And you are not in this alone.

We are stronger together!

All the believers were united in heart and mind. And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. Acts 4:32, NLT

Explore God's amazing plan for Christmas with this family devotional for Advent.

Right from the beginning, the serpent lied to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden - and he has been lying ever since. But right from the beginning, God told us his amazing plan to send Jesus.

Each of the 25 readings looks at one of the serpent's lies from Genesis 3, and then shows how the glorious truth of Christmas beats it every time! There is even space for each family member to make their own notes.

So get each family member a copy of A Jesus Christmas and a Bible, and find ten minutes a day in December to look at God's word together and dwell on the good news of Christmas.

There is a growing realisation across mainstream churches that age-segregated models of connecting with children, young people and families are not working. Drawing on their extensive experience, Suzi Farrant and Darren Philip set out a vision for bringing the generations back together to become the intergenerational church we are designed to be. In conversation with the writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, they develop a theological rationale for intentional intergenerational relationships of mutuality lived out within the core activities of the church.

Through an exploration of the Christian practices of humility, hospitality, participation, discipleship, joy, worship, discernment and testimony, they call the church to re-discover its DNA as an all-age community of transformation.

How to raise a godly man in a godless world

Perhaps there has never been a more challenging time to raise children than in today's culture. Parents are having to address challenges that their parents never had to with them. And while the core elements to raising children are the same, parents need wisdom for applying them to this day and age.

That's what this book is about: navigating the times and raising a generation of men on godly principles--sons who are ready, able, and motivated to represent God during their days of sojourning on this earth. Pastor and author Mike Fabarez will help parents pass the faith on to their sons, in prayer that the promises of God extend to the third and fourth generations... and beyond.

Parents will be equipped to:

• Envision their son's future every day
• Set his spiritual trajectory
• Build a home that grows godly men
• Address the rebellion in their son's heart
• Prepare him to face the world and contribute to it
• Help their son toward a right view of play and leisure
• Navigate the teenage years

There is an epidemic of grown men with the maturity of young boys. Be a parent who saves your child from prolonged adolescence. Scripture says, The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him (Prov. 23:24). Children are a gift from the Lord. Read Raising Men, Not Boys to steward the gift of parenting and shepherd your sons to be men of God.

Many children's ministries are a flurry of activity, run by dedicated volunteers and staff who put in long hours and work hard for the good of the children and parents they serve. Yet despite good intentions, many children's ministries today are not effective. They lack purpose and intentionality.

A twenty-five year veteran of children's ministry in the local church, pastor Steve Adams has ministered to families in multiple churches, from tiny church plants to his present position at Saddleback Church. In this book, Steve applies the revolutionary insights of the Purpose Driven Church to children's ministry and leads readers on a journey of discovery, showing them how to develop an intentional ministry process that moves children toward spiritual health while building a healthy ministry environment for those who work with kids. You will learn how to ask and answer five simple but powerful questions:

• Why are we on this journey?
• Where are you and where are you going?
• Who are we trying to reach?
• How will we move our children towards spiritual health?
• What are the essential elements necessary for the journey?

There is no single key to a successful children's ministry, nor is there only one way that works for everyone. But there is a proven process you can follow and Steve shows how children's ministries all over the world are reaching their God-given potential by discovering their biblical purpose, avoiding the traps of frustration and burnout.

When children have a listening companion who hears, acknowledges, and encourages their early experiences with God, it creates a spiritual footprint that shapes their lives. Lacy Finn Borgo draws on her experience of practicing spiritual direction with children as she introduces key skills for engaging kids in spiritual conversations, offering sample dialogues, prayers to use together, and ideas for play, art, and movement.
