Celebrating Stories of Life Change
How do you celebrate what God is doing in the life of your kids? One of the best environments that I get to participate in is Family Birthday Celebration. You can see a highlight of what this event looks like right here. One thing that I love about this event is how we capture on video the [...]

Who does it take to produce the KidStuf experience? A few years ago we changed our approach to KidStuf. You can learn more about that here. We are firm believers that you must have the right leaders in place before starting something new. Mike is our Multi-Campus KidStuf Director. He leads a Production Director on each [...]

Woo Hoo! Last week, during one of our busiest Sundays ever, I overheard one of our coaches talking to her team of volunteers. She was telling them that one of their teammates, a high school student, was getting baptized next week during the 11:00 service. She wanted to make sure that everyone on the team knew [...]

10. January 2010
We only hire people on our children’s ministry staff, who will be great at working with volunteers. It doesn’t matter what amazing skills they possess, if they aren’t good with volunteers, they can’t be a part of the team. Why? Because EVERYTHING that we do is dependent on the health and strength of our volunteer teams. [...]

Successful leaders excel in the area of self-leadership. They live their life as if they are responsible for their own growth and development. They are not waiting for someone to mentor them. They are actively seeking the wisdom of those around them. They are not complaining about the lack of learning opportunities that their employer offers [...]

How do you make sure you are living your life with purpose? A great way to evaluate how you’re doing and to set goals for the future is to ask yourself, what are the roles that I play? What are the different “titles” that are connected to my name…to my life? Are you a leader? [...]

Philip Daitch, one of our volunteers on UpStreet at Buckhead Church wrote this rap. He wrote it as a review of all our bottom lines, Bible stories, and events from 2009. Once we heard it, we knew it was something to share! Last week we gathered all of our UpStreet volunteers together to challenge them with [...]

16. December 2009
Worship is what you do to show God that you know who He is and what He has done. Worship is a critical part of a child’s spiritual growth. It’s just as important as Bible study, prayer, and small group time. Creating environments that allow our kids to genuinely worship God is one of our most [...]

7. December 2009
How do you get the volunteers that you need? I’ve never really liked the term “recruiting” when it comes to volunteers. It seems to imply a sense of hunting, finding…which leads to begging and then “guilting.” The word that I like is ATTRACTING! We’ve learned the importance of creating the kind of environments that leaders [...]
