Whether children are seen as part of the church family or not should never be up for debate. What we can discuss, however, is what their role in the family should be and where the space is for them to take on that role. The popular question I'm referring to is: "Should children stay in church or go to Sunday school?" I studied Practical Theology with a specialization in Youth Work, so this debate naturally surfaced quite regularly in both course material and casual discussion

Nobody teaches you how to recruit Sunday school volunteers - they just kind of expect you to get it done. I've worked in various kids ministries over the past decade and I'd say that volunteer recruitment is the most underrated skill needed to not burn yourself out as a youth worker.

How creativity, play, and participation help children encounter God - not just learn about Him. Sunday school crafts matter more than you think.
