Children's Ministry Overview
Children’s Ministry. In this quick and effective short course we are going to answer the important question, “How do I minister to kids?” If you’re considering volunteering or you are already serving in children’s ministry then this course is perfect for you.
This course is a great introduction to thinking practically about children’s ministry. Children are a vital part of any church community, they are the future of the church as well. This subject involves much more than simply thinking about playdough or craft – it takes you to God’s word to help shape your understanding of children’s ministry practice.

About your instructor

Ps Andrew Austin
Former Children's Pastor at Berwick Churches of Christ. Have you ever considered why God instituted family? What's Jesus opinion of the family? What role does the family have in society? God has designed the family and the role that the family and faith play in children's lives is critically important. My hope is that you find clarity into the important role family plays in society today.
Course reviews
Highly practical!
Highly practical in providing effective tools for self evaluation and enabling performance driven goals to be successful.
Refresher and reminder
very interesting to see all subjects from different view points as opposed to one dimensional view.
Doing Good and practicing this is essential in our day to day walk with Christ.
I have been trying to do this with God in my walk this year to develop in this area, I ask God to show me who he wants me to minister to today or send someone who needs to hear from you. Quite often He doe’s and it has been happening in various ways. I have been excited to explore this in more detail as I fundamentally think it will help in my daily walk with doing God’s will, but for personal growth and development as well as expanding my ability to outreach to many. Thank you for your ability to share about purposing / activating this in study and teaching format.
