Almost every church is smaller right now, which means the pool of potential volunteers is even smaller. Nowhere does a church feel this impact like in children’s ministry. Jenny Smith joins the show and shares what churches can do right now to recruit more people. She talks about what it means to have a reset mindset and how to stabilize a volunteer base when people are not able to commit weekly. On the show, we talk about a few “wake up calls” for the future of children’s ministry.
