Building a strong kids ministry team doesn’t start with training—it starts with connection. In this episode of Kids Ministry Answers, Jason Sivewright and Dr. Linda Moon respond to a great question from Pastor Elton about hosting intentional, quarterly gatherings that help volunteers connect, grow, and enjoy ministry together.
