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.

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
Overall teachings on Pastoral Care - everything!
Some things i can relate to and others i have learnt more how to!
To be a better student of the Word
Well done
Grow, Reality, Options, Way Forward (GROW)
I have completed a Masters in Community Management however to learn much of the principles (if not all), are founded in biblical ethics and are relevant to pastoring a church or leading a group of people is delightfully fulfilling. Oh to love God and make Him known.
Thank you Andrew and each guest for your wisdom and experiences shared for our gain. God bless.
