Don't Quit: The Best Things in Ministry Come Over Time

by Jessica Bealer, Gina McClain

IT'S MONDAY. I QUIT! Making it in ministry isn't as easy as some might think. After all, it's not like you're a superhero. With every unsuccessful outcome, dropped ball, or negative interaction, you hear the same question in your mind, "Am I still 'called' to be doing what I'm doing?" But don't hang up your cape just yet. The best journey is one where you have the confidence of calling and an intentional strategy that gives you practical hope through the difficult times. Staying with it takes tenacity, vision, purpose, and a plan to make every day and every person count. In this book, Gina McClain and Jessica Bealer draw on their own extended experiences in some of the nation's most well-known family ministries to encourage every leader to stay superhero strong.

Good solid advice for keeping on on children’s and family ministry

[Melanna · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you work in childrens and family ministry, especially in a large church, it’s hard to find practical resources. This is it. If you don’t work in kidmin you likely don’t need what is here. Haha!

This is an encouraging book but also super practical advice that you can put into place now. And it’s a repeatable cycle so even if you’re already doing everything she suggests to some degree you can cycle back around and start again taking it to the next level.

This book is week written to be an easy read with short, digestible chapters. The authors don’t get too bogged down with several examples which allows the reader to place themselves in each situation. I appreciate that.
It’s filled with many great strategies but most importantly talks about the WHY more than the HOW. This ministry is a calling that was never promised to be an easy road but rewarding so DON’T QUIT.
