Today I'm joined by Bro. Aaron, and we're discussing the Michelin Star Rating and how some of the same criteria can also apply to Sunday school. The Michelin Star is a prestigious award given to restaurants by the Michelin Guide, a widely recognized and respected culinary guide. It signifies exceptional quality and is a symbol of excellence.  The Michelin Star is a highly sought-after aw...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Myles and we're talking about the power of being focused in your children's ministry. Focus is not simply about working harder or longer—it's about channeling collective energy, resources, and talent toward what matters most. Sunday school ministries that master the art of focus develop a cutting edge that compounds over time, creating momentum that mak...

Today I'm joined by Aneisha & Shaylee, and we're (trying) to talk about being fully engaged in our mission. In today’s culture, we often obsess over destinations – the promotion, the milestone, or even attendance numbers – while neglecting the path that takes us there. The most effective “ministers” know that true success and fulfillment comes from more than just reaching the goal, b...

Today I'm joined by Clancey & Dawson and we're talking about amazing Sunday school sets.

Today I'm joined by Bro. Aaron and we're talking about the effort and the struggle behind the success. When we see successful people, businesses, or projects, we often witness only the final result—the tip of the iceberg, while 90% remains hidden beneath the surface.  For every leadership triumph we witness, there exists a hidden landscape of challenges, setbacks, and perseverance that r...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Kyle, and we're talking about refusing to settle for anything less than being excellent. In the kingdom of God, creating a culture of excellence isn’t just a nice-to-have – it’s imperative. When Sunday school ministries commit to excellence as a core value, they establish an environment where innovation thrives, staff are inspired, and kids are fully engaged.  A...

Today I'm joined by Aneisha and Shaylee, and we're talking about creating and maintaining a raging fire in Sunday School. Leading in children's ministry is a bit like tending a campfire. When you first begin, there's lots of excitement—bright flames that catch everyone's attention! The kids are enthusiastic, the volunteers are eager, and new ideas spark all around.  But ju...
