Karl Bastian
In this episode, Karl unpacks Kidology Theorem #1: It’s About the Gospel. Using a Child Evangelism Fellowship brochure from the early 1970s as a springboard, he walks through the powerful description of the calling and commitment of a children’s evangelist.
What does it truly mean to give your life to reaching children with the Good News?
We claim the Gospel is top priority, but is it really? What does it mean to make the Gospel the most important aspect of our ministry? The answer may surprise you.
Karl shares personal stories from his own ministry journey, reflects on the weight and wonder of Gospel calling, and challenges leaders to go deeper—even while keeping the message beautifully, boldly simple.
The Gospel is simple enough for a child to understand… but deep enough to anchor a lifetime of ministry.
If you serve kids, lead leaders, or simply need to realign your heart with the core mission, this episode will refocus your compass and strengthen your resolve.
Because in the end, it’s not about programs, platforms, or popularity.
It’s about the Gospel.
