As our children’s ministry grows it’s important that we learn the art of delegation. As you as a leader grows it’s important that your capacity grows. One of the only ways your capacity can grow is when you begin delegating. One of my favorite mini-slogans is that we “delegate authority and not tasks.” Delegation is…
INTENTIONALITY Everything we do should be intentional. All our events, services and meetings are for a purpose. We don’t want to waste people’s time. If it’s one thing I dislike doing more than anything it’s wasting time. Time has become such a valuable commodity. Everyone values their time. It’s the one thing we all have…
CHARACTER Parents want the best for their children. We want the best for our kids at Kid Nation. For this reason, we expect our whole team to exemplify godly character in all they do. Need I say more? We expect our team to uphold the highest standards. We’re not looking for perfect people. We’re just…
INVESTING We value investing time and resources into building great teams and relationships. We hold nothing back when it comes to giving the best to Kid Nation.

SAFETY Safety is our number one priority at Kid Nation. We take the security of every child very seriously. Remember, these values we have are more practical than spiritual. Outside of the spiritual needs of children, safety is our number one priority. Parents want the best for their kids and most will not leave their…
Coming into a new ministry it’s important to establish values. Values are our ideals or customs for which our staff and volunteers will stand for. These are the things that will define who we are. Before we allow people to define us because of a lack of values, we have decided to set out those…

Children’s ministry is more important than ever before. Its proof is in the many recent resources and investment from senior pastors all over the world. Just as every great meal is the result of great ingredients coming together for a common cause, Kids ministry is the result of great “ingredients” coming together for a common…
