Why 16?  Because, it’s what I came up with.  Perhaps this will inspire you for tomorrow’s opportunity to give kids the Word.

Here they are in no particular order:

  • Pray
  • Study so you’ll know what you’re talking about
  • Have a plan. When you don’t – they do.
  • Make the stories come alive
  • Meet their level of intensity… and then, go beyond it a bit (or – a lot)
  • Be animated with your body
  • Be animated with your words
  • Be animated with your voice
  • Make eye-contact
  • Get kids to respond verbally
  • Get kids to respond by cheering
  • Use kid-volunteers to help you
  • Use visual aids
  • Teach like Jesus (like one who has authority)
  • Expect results – ask the kids for a response (See my blog series on Making Time for Response)
  • Say “thanks” to God for the victory won
