Metro ministries is the world's largest children's ministry. But it is not in the leafy suburbs of middle class America. It is in Brooklyn New York. Watch this video, it's an inspirational introduction to the work of God in children's ministry. It reminds me of Paul's words,
... God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him.
It's probably more important that you watch the following video than the previous one for in it founding Pastor Bill Wilson shares his heart for the work. You will get a sense of the Christ like attitude, the cost and some of the practices that makes the ministry a powerful instrument in God's hands.
Question: What attitudes stand out for you as the ones we need as we pursue children's ministry in our context?
