Redefining Children's Ministry in the 21st Century by Becky Fischer Pdf

Research shows that by the time many children are thirteen years old they feel they know everything there is to know about the Bible and God, and feel no further need of attending church. Could this be because we have underestimated their spiritual potential, and been content to feed them a repetitive spiritual diet of basic Bible stories over and over again? Just how many ways can we repackage Noah's Ark anyway? It's time the collective body of Christ re-evaluate children's ministries and redefine what valid, disciple-making, equipping children's ministry really is.

How can we inspire children for God?Children in the 21st century have the need for security and friendship as well as for fun and having joy of life. If we want to build the church of the future and reach the next generation, we should focus our children's ministry accordingly. This is actually not that difficult, we just have to be willing to be challenged. In this book not only the basic elements of children's ministry are clearly presented, but also practical ways to fill the children's ministry in your church with new life. No mother, no father wants the own children to lose faith in God as they grow up. In our church we experience how children are enthusiastic about Jesus and carry this enthusiasm into their circles of friends, kindergarten and school.The first generation has now grown up. And they still have the passion for Jesus.

Russian Version by Becky Fischer Pdf

"This book by Becky Fischer book has opened my eyes to the seriousness of the crisis in contemporary children's ministry. It showed me how devastating the consequences can be if the church does not make radical changes. While translating this book I have experienced the conviction of the Holy Spirit many times. He revealed to me the areas in the church and in my personal life where an urgent transformation must take place, because I am also a mother of two sons. On the other hand, Becky gives practical guidance that all parents can implement immediately as well as church leaders. This book made a strong impression on our entire team, all those who worked on preparing the book for printing. Yula, who worked on editing the texts, who is also one of our children's ministers immediately began to apply the principles. The changes which took place in our children's ministry began right after reading the first few chapters. I believe that this message is extremely urgent for today. Let's raise up a generation of radical servants of Jesus Christ. Those who are listening to His voice and obeying His will to heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, and to preach the Good News of Jesus to a lost world.

Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus by David M. Csinos,Ivy Beckwith Pdf

Attract kids to church, the logic often goes, and you get parents in the pews. All that's left, then, is to get the kids out of the way. Here children's ministers David Csinos and Ivy Beckwith draw on research in human development and spiritual formation to show how children become disciples and churches become centers of lifelong discipleship. For too long, the local church has focused primarily on programs for children rather than ways of doing ministry with children. But in light of emerging missional movements, the church is changing and forming a new kind of ecclesial culture. And children's ministry must follow suit. Csinos and Beckwith propose a new way of thinking for these modern churches—they suggest that children can contribute to our theological understandings, as well as invest in and practice Biblical justice just like adult church members. Here is a unique resource that explores children's ministry in light of true spiritual formation and discipleship.

But Children Matter by Kenneth G. Warren,John S. Knox Pdf

Often, a disconnect exists between the way pastors, children's ministry volunteers, and churches describe the health and impact of children's ministry volunteers (and the overall functioning of an ongoing children's ministry). The volunteer dysfunction that is evident in many churches goes beyond the building scenario or the current strategy that leadership is pursuing. If one asks the pastor of just about any local church how the children's ministry is going, most pastors will respond positively. However, if speaking with a children's ministry volunteer, one is likely to hear, "I am burned out, but I feel obligated to serve here because we have such a shortage of volunteers and I do love these kids." Too often, there is no program in place to monitor the health of the ministry. Official training is lacking, church vision is blurred, and many children's ministry volunteers feel like they are nothing more than large-group, unpaid babysitters. This book analyzes these problems and provides pragmatic, systematic steps to a healthier, more robust children's ministry.
