Sustainable Children's Ministry

Author

Mark DeVries & Annette Safstrom

Who should read it

Recommended for anyone starting out in a children's ministry leadership role and those building a children's ministry from the ground up in a smaller church or church plant.

Why

Subtitled 'from last minute scrambling to long-term solutions', this book looks at the underlying systems and structures in church-based children's ministries (or lack of them). Highly practical, with numerous appendixes full of samples and examples, this book guides the reader to see the need for systems and how to create them. The authors address areas like 'chronic leader shortage', 'workhorse' leadership, working well on a staff team and how to delegate well.
