I am heading up to the SpringHill Youth Worker's Conference today where I am leading a break-out session about connecting with kids. I've titled it "Beyond Silly Bandz" since we all know that is the obvious and easiest way to build a relationship with a child. Yes, I have been the adult in a fancy dress with a silly band accidentally still on my wrist from an earlier trade...
Today's session will open with a video of kids prayers. It's authentic. It's raw. It will touch a nerve. It will help you connect on a deeper level with a child in your life.
This video is from my friends and ministry partners at Granger Community Church in Granger, IN. They have an incredible way of telling a story visually.
I don't fit well in a box, but if you are just catching up with me, I am a 30-something, a first-time home-owner, a camp director, a child development enthusiast, a mentor in the inner-city and a traveler. I sometimes pack stilettos in my backpacking pack, pair antiques with Ikea furniture and lie awake at night pondering how I can live my story in a way that brings more honor to my Creator...
And these are my adventures.
