Description

This book offers practical insights and proven strategies for fostering a flourishing church community by transforming churches through effective family and kids ministry leadership. Changing Lives covers everything you need to know about working with children and families - the why to, the how to, the when to and the where to. Mark Griffiths examines the history, theology and practice of children's ministry and shares the wisdom he has gained from many years' experience of leading hundreds of groups, assemblies and youth services. In practical chapters, backed with sample resources, he shows how to communicate with children in the brave new postmodern world of church, school and community. This one stop resource covers everything from the vision for children's work to matters such as record keeping, home visits, timetables, child protection legislation and templates for lessons.

Advance Praise

“Changing Lives is easy to read, covers all the key issues in lots of practical detail, and is full of great stories and wise advice. But that is only the start. What makes this book essential reading is that Mark not only shows clearly why children’s ministry is vital, but leaves you believing that it is possible. Great theology made practical, based on solid research, wrapped in infectious optimism.” Revd Professor Jeremy Duff, Principal of St Padarn’s Institute, Church in Wales
