Sharing stories with your kids is a great way to build their faith and make special memories together. At Tell the Story Studios, we believe that every family can create meaningful moments that reflect the greatest story ever told. Here are some fun and creative ways to share stories and nurture faith at home.
Read MoreGod speaks to us in many ways. Sometimes, He chooses to speak to us through dreams and visions. For instance, He may show you pictures, images, etc of something He wants you to know for yourself or someone else. A while back, I was sitting in a meeting and God showed me a vision! I’m going to share it with you today because this is for you, too!
Read MoreIn January 2003, I was diagnosed with adult-onset epilepsy, I was told I would have it for the rest of my life. It was horrible news for me, my family & my friends. This was a really big problem. It was huge like a mountain! We felt scared, sad, and we cried... a lot!
Read MoreWhat are some things we know about kids? They like to play, and ask lots of questions. They are easily upset and self-centered. We also know that they are quick to believe and want to feel big and important! Sound like anyone you know? (insert laughter)
Knowing these things, how can we present the gospel to kids in such a way that they will experience the love and power of God’s Word? That’s easy...include them in the story! We can do this by using all the senses we possibly can to illustrate the gospel.
Read MoreAs a child, I was always so excited when my dad (aka my pastor) would schedule a kids evangelist and host a kids event at our church. I remember sitting in my seat with my head bowed, as kids evangelist, Cowboy Steve, lead all the kids in prayer. During that quiet moment, God spoke to my heart to tell me I would be a kids minister some day.
Read MoreSuper easy activity that kids LOVE to do!
FALL IN LOVE WITH JESUS - HIS LOVE COLORS OUR WORLDVIEW!
While working on this activity with your kids, talk about all the colors of the leaves. How beautiful and wonderful are the fall leaves that God created for us to enjoy!
Read MoreWhat is recruiting anyway? In kids ministry, recruiting is assimilating a person from regular church attender to super star volunteer on your team… Woohoo!
In order to build a ministry and keep it moving… every church, big or small, should be in a constant state of recruiting.
Do you ever find yourself struggling to keep up with all the demands of kids ministry? Is it difficult to find enough volunteers, or are you scrambling each week to have everything ready for the weekend? I’ve been there many times, and these three keys have opened the door to successful wins in kids ministry.
Read MoreChange is a beautiful thing!
I love change. I would say that I love change more than most people…. especially in ministry. I’m not talking about a complete overhaul, (although sometimes it is necessary, and I love it!) but I’m talking about tweaks here and there that will bring life to an area that seems to be overlooked or challenging.
There are two important things to do when trying to figure out which areas need change….
Read MoreAre you new to kids ministry or looking for ways to learn how to be a more effective leader?
This is what I have learned over the last 22 years in kids ministry:
It happened last Sunday morning in Trinity Kids, ages 3-9 years old. We had just talked about this Bible Story: Jesus blesses the children. Then we talked about how important all the kids must be to God. We talked about the fact that God sees them all.
Read MoreDo you have a plan in place in case of a medical emergency in your #KidsMinistry? Being prepared with an Emergency Responder Team is a really big deal that is often overlooked in churches.

Read MoreIt’s Sunday morning, and the families of your church are wanting to quickly drop off their kids into your kids ministry so they can get to the worship service. With everyone in a hurry...
Read MoreAre you looking for a fun, inexpensive craft for the holidays? You can use these colored pastas to make all kinds of fun stuff!
Read MoreOn one of our family outings... You know the kind where you just drive to see where you end up? My youngest daughter, Hannah, asked me the question, "Mom, why are you driving down this road?"
Read MoreYou don't have to take a lot of time. Begin with a Bible verse. Talk about what it means. Ask your kids what they need to pray about, then talk to God about it. You don't need a special formula to pray (talk to God). Just speak to Him as you would talk to your friend.
Read MoreI'm so excited to share this resource with you! I first heard about this book at the GROW Leader Conference at Church of the Highlands in July. My great friend, Beverly, knew I wanted it.... and she surprised me with it during the conference! Isn't she a great friend?

Read MoreWhen my girls were younger, I remember some nights of being so tired that I felt like just going to bed and skipping prayer and Bible reading time with them. I have to admit that there were some nights that I skipped it, but those times were very rare because one of my girls would always say, "Mommy, aren't you going read to me and pray with me?"
