SHOW NOTES:
We wonder why adults don't want to serve - when we train them as kids that church is a place you come and watch. If we teach them while they are young that church is a place you come and serve, then that will be a part of their Christian DNA for the rest of their life, whether they go into vocational ministry or serve as a volunteer.
Kids are wired to serve!
Anything a kid can do, a kid should do!
Kids learn skills that they'll need even as adults, like communication.
An application process is the first time kids learn that how you behave in one arena of life can impact opportunities in another arena. It's a powerful growing up experience.
If the 5-6th graders are rolling their eyes - they are ready to serve!
Kids in leadership will lift up the quality of the youth ministry as they will be getting kids coming into the youth group who are trained leaders and eager to serve!
