Let's talk sharing faith, allowing kids to question theirs, and learn about website Karl runs that you've never heard of! When Karl was in junior high, his dad pulled him out of school to attend a life-changing Josh McDowell conference.

In this episode, Karl reflects on that powerful experience and shares how we, as ministry leaders, can encourage kids to explore their faith, ask hard questions, and make their faith their own.Plus, Karl shares a poem from his high school Philosophy class that earned him a big fat "F" — a grade he's still proud of today!And finally, Yosemite Summit 2025 is live!

Kidmin Talk #192 - Secrets for Family Follow UpDESCRIPTION:One of the most important tasks you can do each week in your children's ministry is the personal follow up of the families that visit your church. Sure, your church sends a standard generic follow up e-mail, but you must know, the families that visited your church got one of those from every church they have visited – and likely deleted it without even reading it, because they all sound exactly the same - canned and boring. Nothing beats a personal follow up from you – the person who was delighted to meet their child and can't wait to see them next Sunday!So how do you make their visit to YOUR CHURCH unique and special so their search for a church will be over? Please know – it won't be the preaching or the worship that brings them back. I have heard many times, and I am sure you have too: “We love the adult service, but I'm here because of my kid's experience.”Mentioned on the show:Family Follow Up NotesKidCheck DISCOUNT!Balloon Feet Preschool Visitor GiftAll About Me Guest  FUN Info SheetRomans Road Gospel ToolHighlight Videos TipsKarl's NEW Kidology Theorems BookBig Bible Beginnings CurriculumAgents of Acts CurriculumGus Who, What and I Don't Know Agents!

Kidmin Talk #185- What REAL Ministry Success Looks LikeIn a very vulnerable live keynote presentation a few years ago, Pastor Karl talks about what real ministry success looks like. He explains why he will never coach leaders on "brand development" or share secrets to growing a business, in part because while God has granted him business success over the years and a well-known brand, he never pursued either. Real success has nothing to do with either.He posits the question, "What will be the measure of your life?" The answer may surprise you.Share with Kidology.org/kidmintalk185Featured Resource: KIDCHECK Learn more at Kidology.org/kidcheckPLEASE SUBSCRIBE and HIT THAT ALERT BUTTON TOO!Enjoy Karl's other podcasts at KidminTalk.comKidmin Talk is the Podcast of Pastor Karl Bastian, founder of Kidology.org and host of KidminTalk.com.

American Underdog is the story of Hall-of-Famer Kurt Warner pursuing his dream of becoming an NFL quarterback. His son Zach is portrayed by Hayden Zaller, who stole the show! His own personal story is inspiring, and that's why, when Kidology was granted the opportunity to help promote the movie, I chose to interview Hayden!

Part 3 of a 3-Part Year-End Special where Pastor Karl breaks out the ol' cassette tape sermons from decades ago to see just how timeless the Word of God truly is. Today's message Karl almost doesn't want to share - it contains a long-forgotten secret of the ancient church fathers that has been hidden within a Latin code that Karl deciphered many years ago and prefers to keep to himself, and yet, the impact it has had on his spiritual life is so profound, he is compelled to share it. So you are welcome to listen but don't share it with too many people. Let's keep this spiritual Latin code to ourselves.

Part 2 of a 3-Part Year-End Special where Pastor Karl breaks out the ol' cassette tape sermons from over 25 years ago! Today's message from 1997 is as relevant today as the day he first delivered it on a Sunday night in the inner city of Chicago. So often in life or ministry, we see God blessing those around us and wonder if He has overlooked us and forgotten our needs and prayer requests. Does God ever get distracted and forget the promises He made to us? Or could He be up to something we just can't see? It's a message that will encourage and give you hope if you are secretly wondering if God hasn't gotten a little distracted.

Part 1 of a 3-Part Year-End Special where Pastor Karl breaks out the ol' cassette tape sermons from over 25 years ago! Today's message from 1995 is as timeless as the Scripture it is based upon and a perfect reminder as we focus on PEOPLE in our ministry. Enjoy a much younger Karl as he challenges you to keep your schedule tentative and to be ready for ministry opportunities that may surprise you at any moment.
