💰 **YOU DON'T NEED A HUGE BUDGET TO HAVE A GREAT CHILDREN'S MINISTRY.**
Sometimes we look at another church's children's building, technology, decorations, budget, or programs and think:
*"We could never do that."*
Maybe not.
But you don't have to.
In the newest episode of **The Great Commission Toolkit**, I'm back with my dad, Pastor Jon Williams, talking about how Bluestone Baptist Church has been intentionally improving its children's ministry.
They don't have an enormous children's ministry budget.
The children's building doesn't look like Disney World. 😂
But they're training workers, developing new teachers, planning intentionally, teaching God's Word, having fun, and working to build a children's ministry kids genuinely want to attend.
We talk about:
👥 Training and developing workers
💰 Doing children's ministry on a smaller budget
👋 Welcoming visiting families
📖 Structuring children's church
🎮 Games, songs, prizes & object lessons
🌱 Developing new teachers
⏰ Planning every minute
🙏 Making time for the invitation and counseling
If you're serving in a smaller church, I especially hope this episode encourages you.
**Don't wait until you have a bigger budget.**
**Use what God has already given you.**
