    Smart Things Every Children’s Minister needs to Know

    Through all the years of serving the church I have learned some things that I want to pass on to you over the next few weeks.  We don’t have to learn everything the hard way.  For me, there have been times of learning when I blew it and was stung so I never forgot […]

    Engaging Children in Missions and Serving

My friend, Gina McKean, is a leader and example of serving others. She provides meaningful experiences where kids learn the joy of helping someone else.  Gina is the Children’s […]

Yes, I believe the kids should be memorizing Bible verses and learning the books of the Bible, but have a soft launch during summer. Begin with learning how the Bible is […]

    Teaching Preschoolers

    Here in Oklahoma, we are used to frightening weather. It can still scare us. We had a tornado hit our house just a couple of years ago. It ripped off part of our roof and proceeded to rain like crazy and flood that part of the house.  The damage was terrible but we were so […]

    Classroom Management, Part 2

    Hey, friends. Welcome to Mr. Mark’s Classroom. I want to continue this conversation about how we’re going to guide our classrooms. I was observing on Wednesday, and I saw Ms. Cathy.
