What does it really mean to be child-centered?
Many people assume it means making church fun, exciting, and engaging. While those things matter, a truly kid-centered ministry goes much deeper.
In this episode, Karl explores the first pillar of The Kidology Way and shares practical insights on creating environments where children feel welcomed, understood, safe, and valued. Learn how strategic fun, relevant teaching, and understanding a child's world can help kids connect more deeply with God.
Because when we understand kids better, we can reach them more effectively.
