Let me keep it pretty simple: I like reading children’s ministry blogs. Why? Because it gives me insight into the worlds of children’s pastors, from all over the world! I get a chance to see how a children’s pastor in a church of 100 thinks… and how a children’s pastor in a church of 20,000 thinks. At times I laugh with them, and I also cry with them. I get encouraged and I gain ideas and insight. Sometimes I disagree and I decide whether or not comment. I love the fact that blogs – from ministry people allows the rest of us to see your philosophy in ministry.

If you are a children’s minister, and you blog – thanks! If you are a children’s minister and you don’t blog, consider it. It won’t cost you anything but some time to tell us all what you are doing, what you think, share good news, bad news and ugly news. It would equip, encourage and amaze the rest of us.
