Category: Children’s Ministry
This weekend I had the privilege to attend the Club 5 Conference at Stanwell Tops Conference Centre. Although I have been attending these conferences for many years, I am thrilled to see youth and children’s ministry becoming an even more significant part of the focus of ministry training and recruitment.
My role over the weekend was to lead a small group, interview a candidate for ministry, and to participate in the program. In particular, I led a seminar group on youth and children’s ministry, in which I was joined by many of the the other Youthworks advisers in showing the importance of youth and children’s ministry, and the options available.

This case study considers the adaptation of a three-talk sermon series on the book of Leviticus from 25-minute monologues to one-hour teaching sessions. Despite positive comments on the sermons in their original format, I decided to implement some adult-education teaching techniques for the weekend houseparty context to enhance their delivery. The resources available included an overhead projector, a whiteboard, plus flexible seating.
