In kids ministry, it's important to start with a focus on simplicity and humility. Connect with kids, share the Gospel, and be a faithful steward of resources. Listen to kids and create a safe space for them to feel heard and seen.
“The goal in the beginning is not to do well, but to begin.” - John Maxwell
Effective teaching and presentation strategies for Kids Ministry leaders includes interactive and visual aids, experiential and participatory elements, and connecting with kids. Incorporate these strategies into your practice to engage and inspire young minds.
Teaching methods for engaging kids in church:
EPIC is a teaching method for engaging and connecting with kids using experiential, participatory, and image-driven approaches. Visual aids enhance kids’ understanding of the concepts you are teaching. The goal is to connect with kids through the teaching process.

Connecting with Children is a leader training about listening to kids and learning how to better connect with them so they know that you care. When adults can learn to be better listeners to kids, kids will be better communicators with adults.

The Gospel for Children is a series on how to share the Gospel with kids, explaining key elements and ways to present to them. This series offers strategies to help kids understand and grow in their faith.
When sharing the Gospel with kids, we must be honest about sin and that the penalty for sin is death, while also sharing the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. We must emphasize their need to trust in God's message and not rely on their personal efforts to save them, while also realizing that it is God who will do the work of salvation in them not us. Trust me, kids can understand the Gospel. We need to present it clearly and allow God to do the work.

Where Do You Find Your Purpose? | 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
Mister Brown • 1 Corinthians 15:3–4, 1 John 3:1, 2 Corinthians 5:21
As a Kids Ministry leader, where do you get your worth and value from? Where do you find your purpose? Leaders tend to get their worth and value from what they do. All of your significance, value, and worth comes from two main things: being created in the image of God and being a child of God. Identity, purpose, and value comes from the finished work of Jesus Christ. "...Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures..." - 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

The Trinity - Mind Blown! 💥
Mister Brown • Psalm 145:3, Psalm 86:8–10, Matthew 6:6–13
The Trinity can be confusing. It doesn't make it wrong. It means God is beyond our human understanding. The Trinity means there is one God in three persons. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Watch this video for one way to explain the Trinity.

Where Should We Invest the Most In Kids Ministry?
Mister Brown
Where should we invest the most in Kids Ministry? My perspective on what is most important for training and discipleship in Kids Ministry.
Can Kids Be Saved???
Mister Brown • Romans 1:16
Can kids be saved? At what age can a child accept Jesus as their Lord and savior? The Gospel doesn't have an age limit on it. It's not about the kid's ability to communicate with God. It's about God's ability and desire to communicate with kids.
Bible Verses:
Romans 1:16
Teaching Kids Not to Worry But To Pray
Mister Brown • Philippians 4:6–7
Kids have a lot they are worried about. That is why teaching them how to pray is essential. Teach them to worry about nothing and pray about everything, Philippians 4:6-7

Don’t Ask, If You Don’t Want To Know
Mister Brown
Don't ask kids yes or no questions if you don't want to get a no answer. Instead, ask an open-ended question, tell them what you are going to do, or just do it and don't ask them anything. As a Kids Ministry leader or volunteer, there are some instances where you do NOT need to ask questions.
