Children's Ministry Sites
Kidology Web - the creative website for children's ministry. Mr. Bastian's site is what inspired me to get this site up and going. His site is truly awesome. It is well worth the investment to be able to network with others, gather skits, scripts, lessons, object lessons and so much more all at one site. I love the search feature that lets me find exactly what I need quickly. If you sign up for only one pay site, the Kidology site gets my vote.
Cold Water Cafe - another great site full of serious and funny articles and stories directed to Children's ministers.
International Network of Children's Ministry - Good site for children's ministers and also links to the greatest children's ministry conference out there, the Children's Pastor's Conference.
