Children are ready to be full members of the body of Christ, serving God with their gifts and sharing the message of Jesus with their family and friends. In this course, Empowering Children to be Kingdom Champions, you will be equipped with knowledge and skills to release children to serve Jesus now. You will discover the biblical reasons for partnering with children and consider the benefits and challenges of empowering them for ministry. You will identify what children need from adults to be empowered, and also consider practical ideas for empowering them to be Kingdom Champions in their families, churches, communities and world.
