LEADING A CHILD TO CHRISTWhat basic truths do children need to understand to make the decision to ask Jesus to be Lord of their lives? Different ideas like the Wordless Book, ABC’s of Salvation, and others will be discussed. Come and consider the most important message God has given to the world – how to have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ.Teacher: Dalton O’NealLocation: Room 23

EVANGELISTIC CRAFTS THAT KEEP ON SPEAKINGChildren’s Ministry events and outreaches often involve crafts. Kids love making crafts. But, as you might know, quality crafts can be a challenge to find or develop. In this class you will be taught several crafts appropriate for ages 5-14, that could be used in a VBS, camp, or evangelistic outreach. You will receive written instructions for each craft, plus you will get to make one yourself. Unique to the crafts presented in this workshop is the built-in gospel message, using the colors of the “Wordless Book”. The children will enjoy making these crafts, all the while learning of the great gift God has for them through Jesus!Teacher: Rebekah EnterlineLocation: Room 31

USING QUESTIONS WHEN TEACHING CHILDRENUsing questions while teaching can often be a simple, while at the same time a powerful tool. When we use questions to teach in the classroom, we can help the children to pay attention and understand the lesson, while teachers can be helped to communicate and also gain insight into how well the children are understanding what is being taught.Teacher: Annie EnterlineLocation: Room 34

PURPOSE OF CHILDREN’S MINISTRYIn order to know God’s call for Children’s leaders, we must go back to the beginning, back to the basics. To truly know God’s purpose for Children’s Ministry we first have to look to His Word, then we can look at the original purpose and vision for Children’s Ministry. As we explore the history, we will look at examples of Children’s Ministry done right.Teacher: Steve WestLocation: Sanctuary

BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS The most important aspect of your position as a teacher is your relationship with the children. As you build personal relationships/friendships with each child, there will be benefits that stem from bonding with your students. There will be less need for discipline, greater and deeper times of discipleship, and MORE LOVE! (John 13:34-35) We will consider helpful ways you can build deeper, closer relationships with your children.Teacher: John DemingLocation: Room 32

NO WORSHIP LEADER… NO PROBLEM Having no worship leader in Children’s Ministry classes can be a problem. What do you do now? Do you sing accapella or do you not sing at all? This class will give you an easy alternative for worship that has revolutionized our worship in the classes at our church. Worship our Lord with pre-recorded worship songs. You don’t think that will work? Come and see!Teacher: Matt EnterlineLocation: Room 21

TEACHING CHILDREN ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRITHave we forgotten to teach the children who the Holy Spirit is and His role in our daily lives? Christianity is a supernatural life! Come find out how to teach the children this important aspect of our faith.Teacher: Kevin YatesLocation: Room 33

ALONE TIME WITH GODDo the children know how to talk with God? Do the teachers or parents know how to talk with God? Can we really talk to and have fellowship with God?

TEACHING CHILDREN TO PRAYGod’s design from the beginning is that people, young and old, would have a relationship with their Creator. But, knowing that no relationship is stronger than its communication, it becomes vital that we communicate with God. For without communication, the relationship becomes distant. But, through the glorious privilege of prayer, we are drawn into the very presence of a wonderful Holy God. Children too, can experience the blessing of talking with God through prayer. It is important that we teach them this while they are still young and this is what will be discussed in this workshop.Teacher: Dalton O’NealLocation: Room 21

SPECIAL NEEDS MINISTRY FROM THE NURSERYTO THE PARKING LOTWhile the most pressing need for special needs ministry is often within children’s ministry, the entire church must engage in creating an authentic community where everybody may fully belong.

LEADERSHIP ORGANIZED: HOW TO BUILD A STRONGER,WELL-ORGANIZED TEAMAs a leader in Kids’ Ministry it is important to surround yourself with a strong team, but how do you go about building a team and what tasks should you delegate to them? Jesus provides us with an example of “Leadership Organized” as He instructs His disciples in Luke 9:10-17 to organize the people in groups and make them sit down that they might be fed. As a leader it is important to remember that you cannot do ministry alone, but need others to come alongside of you.Teacher: Craig ArnhartLocation: Room 34

SIMPLY THE STORY Simply the story (or STS) is an oral inductive method of teaching the Bible to both children and adults. Simply by staying within a Bible story, students learn and retain the Scriptures they hear, while the Holy Spirit Himself makes the application to their lives. Using the STS method, teachers learn and teach the way Jesus taught...through story and asking questions, with student participation. And the results are amazing! STS is now being used around the world to teach both those who cannot read or write, and those who can.Teacher: Darlene TheisLocation: Room 23

Have you ever had the sensation of being pulled in far too many directions to serve far too many needs? The only way to do what only we can do is to practice the art of saying “no”.

BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS The most important aspect of your position as a teacher is your relationship with the children. As you build personal relationships/friendships with each child, there will be benefits that stem from bonding with your students. There will be less need for discipline, greater and deeper times of discipleship, and MORE LOVE! (John 13:34-35) We will consider helpful ways you can build deeper, closer relationships with your children.Teacher: John DemingLocation: Sanctuary
