\"Kid-Min<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy New Year! I love beginnings\u2026a chance for fresh starts, a chance for changes, and a chance for reminders \u2013 reminders of who we are, whose we are, and who we\u2019re created to be. God is so good to give us new beginnings and fresh starts, even on a daily basis. \u201cHis great love is new every morning. Lord, how faithful you are!\u201d (Lamentations 3:23 NIRV).<\/em><\/p>\n

As a new year begins, many of us are setting goals and looking for ways to improve who we are and what we do. Thankfully, we are not alone in that endeavor! I love Philippians 2:13, \u201cFor God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him.\u201d<\/em> God is so incredibly good that whatever He calls and asks us to do, He also equips us to do it\u2026sometimes even going so far as to help us want<\/em> to do it. I don\u2019t know about you, but there are days I don\u2019t feel like parenting \u2013 being the adult responsible for my children\u2019s growth and well-being. There are some Sundays and Wednesdays I don\u2019t particularly want to be around kids or manage volunteers. The good news is that it\u2019s not all up to me! If Philippians 2:13 is true (which it is), then God is working in me! As I yield to Him and partner with His Holy Spirit in me, I can all of a sudden notice some joy, some strength, some wisdom, some of everything I need. As we are pouring into kids, in whatever role that is, we can be absolutely certain that God is always working in us, always giving us the power to do it, and even giving us the desire when we\u2019re lacking it.<\/p>\n

In Discipleship Ministries\u2019 Kid Min, we want to be a resource God can use to empower and equip you as you so faithfully participate in ministry to children. If you haven\u2019t signed up yet, we\u2019d love to have you join one of our Kid Min Training Days coming in Oklahoma City, OK<\/a> and Goldsboro, NC<\/a>. It will be a great opportunity to get some fresh ideas and motivating reminders for your children\u2019s ministries. We\u2019ll be talking about why we do what we do, curriculum, volunteers, large groups, small groups, and much more\u2026even a live kids\u2019 service. You can register on the Discipleship website (click here)<\/a> and we\u2019ll look forward to seeing you there. It\u2019s going to be a great year!<\/p>\n
