Veteran children’s pastor Chris Ammen shares practical, proven strategies for growing a thriving, sustainable children’s ministry.
Every church wants a strong kids’ outreach, but here’s the elephant in the room: Though church ministry teams love children and Jesus, they often lack the structure, resources, and specific tools necessary to inspire and serve the next generation the way they desire.
If you’re passionate about reaching kids for Christ, veteran children’s ministry director Chris Ammen is here to equip you with the organizational leadership skills to support your vision in a scalable and sustainable way. Drawing from his own experience (thrown into the deep end, like so many others), Chris offers specific, actionable tools to build an effective, Christ-centered children’s ministry.
How to Build a Better Children’s Ministry will help you . . .
- clarify your ministry’s vision, mission, and values
- develop systems for sustained success
- challenge yourself and your team to adapt and innovate
Whether you’re just starting out or working with a well-established team, you can lead your children’s ministry with renewed purpose and strength.
“With wisdom and disarming humor, Chris has brought us the book every Christian parent needs. This book empowers parents to share their faith with their kids while simultaneously setting them free from the overwhelming pressure of trying to do the impossible—parenting perfectly and saving our children’s souls by our own strength. Chris’s call to make disciples in our homes is one of the most important aspects of Christian parenting and one that desperately needs the help that Chris has laid out for us here.”
—Adam Griffin, lead pastor of Eastside Community Church in Dallas, Texas, host of The Family Discipleship Podcast, and author of several books and resources for families
“Reliance on Jesus may not sound complicated enough to be a thoughtful, practical plan for discipling kids, but Chris Ammen shows it is. In Raising Disciples at Home, he offers freeing, convicting, and empowering biblical perspectives on what it means to walk with kids toward Jesus. Careful, compassionate, and realistic, this book helps readers see that through Jesus, they truly can raise disciples at home.”
—Bethany McIlrath, author of the Abigail series and kids ministry volunteer
“I hoped to learn a thing or two about discipling my four children by reading Raising Disciples at Home. That happened. Big time. But I also felt seen and cared for as a parent, with one refreshing light bulb moment after another. This is the most insightful book for parents I have read in ages, but also the most delightful! To achieve both is hard to do, but Chris Ammen has written a page-turner. I devoured it! I’d encourage you to do the same.”
—Amber Lia, bestselling coauthor of Triggers
“Sit down, read Raising Disciples at Home, and take a deep breath of grace and encouragement. Parenting can be hard. Chris Ammen reminds readers that while growth is always possible, it is the magnificent love of God for us parents that makes it possible. Filled with practical tools and biblical wisdom, this book guides parents on a journey toward becoming more loving and intentional in their parenting. It’s a gift for anyone wishing to parent from a place of grace rather than guilt.”
—Benjie Slaton, lead pastor of Grace+Peace Church in Chattanooga, Tennessee
