KidMin Backstage

Today I'm joined by Bro. Myles and we're talking about being world class in your ministry. The difference between good and exceptional often lies in one's commitment to excellence. Many settle for meeting basic expectations but never reaching their full potential. We find ourselves "getting by" with adequate performance, losing sight of what true excellence looks like. Yet...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Brent and we're talking those distinguishing factors that take us to the next level. When you return to your corner after the final bell, exhausted but knowing you held nothing back—that's when you've truly succeeded as a fighter.  There is something that distinguishes professionals. They’re on a completely different level.  I believe that most of this...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Aaron and we're talking about epic Sunday school! The most memorable children’s productions often emerge from the smallest ideas. When directing Sunday school, the magic often lies in taking the seemingly insignificant – a quick joke, a minor character interaction, or a fleeting moment – and transforming it into something spectacular. Sunday school can thrive on...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Matthew and we're talking about labels. Imagine as a Kidmin leader you walk into an event and a guy yells out, “goofy, crazy, silly!” Then someone else chimes in, “immature, foolish, shallow!” And then an official looking lady comes up with a huge sticker that has all these words and places it squarely on your forehead to wear for the duration of the event. Imagi...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Kyle and we're talking about maximizing the potential that God gave us. As leaders in the church, we carry a profound responsibility. God has placed unique gifts, talents, and resources in our care—not merely for safekeeping, but for multiplication.  The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 reminds us that faithfulness isn't measured by preservation alone, b...

Today I'm joined by Aneisha & Shaylee and we're talking about some behind the scenes stuff! We call this podcast Kidmin Backstage and yet we often talk about leadership principles and one’s personal growth as a Sunday school leader. So today we wanted to live up to our name and take a peek behind the scenes of our Sunday school. Along with this, maybe we can offer some ideas on how s...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Brent and we're talking about fulfilling the work of God. Your most meaningful contributions to God's kingdom are still ahead. Every Sunday school leader has moments where they wonder if their best ministry days are behind them. But the truth is, your deepest impact on kids, your most transformative lessons, and your most profound ministry moments might be w...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Aaron Boggs and we're talking about momentum in your ministry. Momentum is the driving force that multiplies success and makes progress easier. If we as Sunday school leaders can focus and capture momentum, obstacles appear smaller, and achievements feel more attainable. But to access this powerful force, it takes effort. The beginning can be painstaking and labo...

Today I'm joined by Bro. Myles and we're talking about setting the standard and establishing higher expectations. How much should we expect out of our Sunday school kids? Experience and even research show that children rise to meet the standards we set for them. When we raise the bar while providing support, we create an environment where kids can discover and achieve their God-given pot...
