Children's Ministries that are effective over the long haul have a lot in common with the Etch-a-Sketch.
- They express creativity.
- They are not content with past creativity.
- Each picture is evaluated and then scrapped once it past it's day.
- They are willing to shake things up and try something new.
- The content inside stays the same, but is quite often expressed with a fresh, new look.
- They are able to navigate skillfully through quick changes.
- They are a tool that is used to paint the beautiful picture that God is creating in children and families' lives.
