Safe and Secure Training Video
A Child Security Training Video for use in your ministry.
Pastor Karl created this video to train his own church leaders and volunteers in child safety and security in the children's ministry.
I hope you find this helpful in your efforts to encourage your own volunteers to be mindful and intentional in following wise security guidelines. Onging training is critical to a growing children's ministry. These videos were created by Pastor Karl Bastian, a full time children's pastor - first for his own volunteers, but are recorded in a generic format so that they are usuable by any children's ministry. Many come with bonus content to enhance the training. Each Volunteer Training Video includes 3 methods of delivery: watch on Kidology.org, use a Vimeo link, or download to your computer. This enables you to share the videos with your volunteers without them needing a Kidology membership. There is much said about leadership – and leadership is key – but management is where the work lies. Leadership is lofty, while management gets dirty. Leadership is white collar. Management is blue collar. But we all know blue collar is where the real work happens. In children’s ministry, you have to be both a leader and a manager. If you are only a manager, your ministry will not advance or grow. But if you are only a leader, you’ll never get anything done and great vision and lofty goals will never become reality. Successful children’s ministry directors know how to shift between leading and managing their ministry. In this series, Pastor Karl shares Kidmin Management Skills he has learned over decades of leading children's ministries from mobile church ministry, to large churches. These videos are packed with PRACTICAL tips and advice to help you successfully manage the ministry God has entrusted you with. The Kids Church Cooking Show is a series of training videos that will help transform bland teaching into creative gourmet experiences. Learn how to take your teaching or performing to the next level.
