Today I'm joined by Bro. Myles and we're talking about having that perfect position.

Most of us probably have an idea of the “perfect job” or even a position within the company that we work for. I remember a friend of mine telling me about her 4-year-old son. They were at the store, and he was in the cart wearing one of those plastic firemen hats. The cashier asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up and he said, “A fireman.” And then he paused and was like, “Or a dog.” Fireman to dog, this kid sounds like he was destined to be Sunday school staff! 

In Sunday school and just church ministry there are many jobs and most of us wear more than one hat. When you’re trying to overcome a challenge, there’s a concept of throwing everything to see what sticks. I think we should take this approach when it comes to children’s ministry. If you’re asked to be a dog instead of wearing the firemen’s hat, be the best dog you can be! 

Some of the things we try to cover:

• Be available and you will be used
• Fully invest
• Be willing to fulfill "less than ideal" positions
• Pass it on
