What is SWAP???

Welcome to SWAP!

That's "Silly With A Purpose"!

If you serve in children's ministry, you know kids love to be silly! They love it even more when their leaders are a little silly too! I believe in having tons of fun when teaching kids, not just for the sake of being silly, but for the purpose of reinforcing biblical truths.

When planning lessons, I often run across ideas that are either too boring or might be fun and silly, but don't have much depth to them. Some children's ministries think the silly stuff is - well - silly and that we need to be more serious about The Word, while other children's ministries focus so much on the silly that when Mom & Dad ask their kids what they learned about in Sunday School, all the kids remember is the goofy game they played. Why can't both silly and serious live harmoniously? I believe they can and that's what this blog is all about.

The intention of this blog is for those of us in the wonderful world of children's ministry to SWAP ideas for incorporating fun and silly activities into our lessons without sacrificing the integrity of The Word.

Regardless of the area of children's ministry in which you serve, feel free to share your ideas...what's worked for you...what hasn't...offer suggestions...ask questions...in other words SWAP with others who love Jesus and love children as much as you do! Just leave a comment with your suggestions and ideas and feel free to use my ideas in your ministry as well.

May the Lord richly bless you as you do your part in training up the next generation of Christ followers.

To God be the glory!
