    Volunteer Schedules & Motivation - Episode 2

    In episode 2 of the Kidmin Podcast, Kenny Conley and Nick Blevins dive into a topic every kids ministry leader wrestles with: volunteer scheduling. From once-a-month rotations to complicated multi-week schedules, Kenny and Nick explore why the way we schedule volunteers may say more about our philosophy of ministry and discipleship than we realize. Drawing from real conversations at the Children’s Pastors Conference, they discuss the tension between making volunteering “easier” and creating the most effective discipleship environment for kids. This episode isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about mindset, leadership conviction, and asking better questions that lead to healthier ministry long-term. 🎯 Topics include: Weekly vs. monthly volunteer schedulesWhy consistency matters for discipleshipThe real reasons churches choose complex rotationsHow attendance trends affect kids ministry strategyA challenge for leaders heading into a new ministry yearIf you’re a kids ministry leader who wants to build something healthier, stronger, and more sustainable—this conversation is for you.HELPFUL LINKS:Kidmin Websitehttps://kidmin.comSubscribe to the Kidmin Weekly emailhttps://kidmin.comEmail us your topic ideasmailto:hello@kidmin.comCHAPTERS:00:00 – Welcome & CPC Recap02:05 – Ministry Boost Coaching & Why It Matters04:18 – Why Volunteer Schedules Are So Complicated06:49 – The Craziest Scheduling Models We See09:56 – What Scheduling Reveals About Discipleship12:38 – Real Church Constraints That Shape Schedules15:10 – Why Weekly Volunteers Create Better Discipleship19:05 – Changing the Mindset Before Changing the System22:19 – Practical Next Steps for Ministry Leaders23:52 – Closing & What’s Coming Next
