In this episode of Hey Parents, Lee Taylor sits down with Children’s Missions & Disciplemaking Associate Allison Young and Special Needs Minister Lynn Wilkerson for a fun and meaningful conversation about one of the key spiritual milestones in a child’s faith journey—serving.

Together, they explore why serving is essential to following Jesus, how Scripture models a life of compassion and action, and the many practical ways kids and students can begin serving both inside and outside the church. From balloon-twisting fourth graders to meaningful mission trip moments, Allison and Lynn share real stories that highlight how God uses each child’s unique gifts and passions for His kingdom.

Johnson Ferry Baptist Church, located just north of Atlanta, GA. JF, as it is affectionately called, is a healthy, vibrant church committed to helping people find truth, belonging, and purpose in Jesus.
