After exploring the Five Smooth Stones in Deuteronomy 6—and seeing them modeled in the ministry of Jesus—we now turn to the Apostle Paul. Often remembered as a theologian and writer, Paul was also a deeply relational pastor whose ministry was marked by genuine love. In this episode we unpack why relational ministry is the foundation for transformational children’s ministry, and we walk through Paul’s clearest picture of love in 1 Corinthians 13—what it looks like in real life, in real classrooms, with real kids. Because love isn’t a ministry “extra”… it’s the relational currency children are starving for.
