As leaders in children’s ministry, there are times when we feel overwhelmed and isolated, like we’re fighting this battle alone.  How do we keep the discouragements from overcoming us?  How do we keep from “ministering” to the point of exhaustion – physically, mentally, or both- when we sometimes “are” out there on our own!  When we start to feel “burned out,” we need to get “F.I.R.E.D.  U.P.” instead!
