Could COVID be the BEST thing that ever happened to your children's ministry? It all depends on your attitude! Jesus promised us that in this world we would face tribulation - but He also promised that He would overcome this world! Pastor Karl shares five things we can focus on to make this challenging season of ministry a BLESSING rather than a curse.

Ministry is hard. Especially these days. What are the characteristics a leader must possess to survive over the long haul? How do you avoid burn out? What will keep you going when the going gets tough? What sets leaders apart from those who don't last long or quit when it gets difficult? How do you keep going when you face overwhelming challenges? Why do some keep going when most fizzle out? Find out from a leader who has stuck with it for decades even through very hard times. In the midst of Covid-19, it's a timely message.

If you are feeling discouraged by declining engagement online, weary of the shutdown even as you are excited about reopening, you could be measuring success wrong.
