Your Kids Sit in the Ministry You Lead
Oct 09, 2027 Episode 720
In this episode of the Healthy Church Staff podcast, Todd Rhoades discusses the challenges faced by church staff members who also have children in the congregation. Balancing roles as both a parent and a staff leader can create situations where staff members are scrutinized unfairly. The podcast explores how churches can support these staff members by establishing clear plans that separate parenting and leadership duties within the church setting. • Dual roles of staff members as parents and leaders create conflicts. • Children of staff members may become object lessons in the congregation. • It's important to have a plan to separate parenting from leadership duties. • Churches should not expect staff to be both parent and leader simultaneously. • A thoughtful approach can prevent children from becoming public examples.
