How to Start a Bus Ministry
I’ve been inspired. Maybe it was God, maybe it was just my overactive imagination, but there is no doubt I have been inspired.
WARNING: I AM ABOUT TO GIVE YOU THE UNVARNISHED TRUTH EVERY PASTOR HAS THOUGHT IN THEIR HEAD BUT WOULD NEVER DARE TO SAY OUT LOUD.
I have never been a big fan of bus ministry.
There are lots of problems with bus ministry. First, the poor kids are the ones who most often frequent the bus. It gives their parents free baby sitting while they sleep off their hangover. And as we all know, poor kids are the most likely to set a pew on fire in the middle of the childrens’ sermon.
So in order to keep the poor mini-demons little angels in check, you have to find the most compliant woman in the congregation and order tell ask her to “help” with the rug rant ankle biters Jesus’ little ones.
But that’s not all.
Our goal needs to be to reach not just the children, but their parents as well. In fact, studies have demonstrated that when you can get the father in church the entire family will follow. With the parents there the kids will be taken care of and problems are solved.
So this week I was inspired when I heard about an innovative bus ministry focused on getting MEN on the bus. Check it out. I can’t wait to start one here.
Yep. I’d go to church on that bus, and be hollering “Oh God!” the whole way there and back.
WHY DO I CONTINUE TO TRUST YOUR LINKS!?!?!
Im just so gullible….
Some people never learn.
