Is your Kids Ministry creating disciples or providing daycare? It’s an honest question I think we all should be asking ourselves, so we are incorporating the next generation into the body of Christ. Join me in this discussion with Pastor Travis Osborne.

Bible Verses:
Ephesians 4:11-13
Colossians 1:13
1 Corinthians 15:3-4
The focus of any ministry, including Kids Ministry, should be in creating disciples. Our job as the church is to equip parents to disciple their own kids and provide support, not just babysit kids, to help them grow in faith. Supporting parents and Kids Ministry requires intentionally incorporating kids and youth in the main church.
I asked Pastor Travis to join me today because I noticed a unique approach to teaching kids on Sunday with parents at VC Family Church. This is especially the case with Vacation Bible School.
Vacation Bible School (VBS) is fun and it’s an extended time to teach God's word to kids. It’s also an outreach to kids who might not come to church on Sundays. Pastor Travis also incorporates a VBS Sunday to reach more people and make it a team effort.
Inviting kids into church service and parents into VBS creates opportunities for intergenerational connection and Gospel sharing. It connects kids and adults through the Gospel message.
For churches looking to make more connections between Kids Ministry and the main service, here are some ideas:
Plan to intentionally seek out opportunities to align the messages taught in Kids Ministry with the Sunday sermons.
Consider providing parents with notes or summaries of what their kids are learning in Kids Ministry.
Engage kids in the main services by having them write down notes from the sermons and sharing them with parents.
Continue your efforts to reach, teach, and equip the body of Christ in the context of family and relationships.
