Join Phillip and Trystan as they look back on a classic summer Sunday full of funny, good, and everything-in-between moments. You’ll hear about a superhero identity crisis (thanks, kid in the back), a catastrophic shortage of Sunday School dollars and a victory moments as well.

This week’s fishing story is about needing more “galley workers” who jump in where it counts.

You’ll also hear a dad joke, about an object lesson, a reality check on perception versus what’s real, an incredible testimony that replaced our usual notebook thought and more!

Oh, and we’re launching the Apostolic Kids YouTube channel! Weekly videos, fun content, and Apostolic truth—dropping every Saturday at 8:00 a.m. PST. Don’t miss it!

We’re not experts, but we are passionate about kids' ministry. In this episode, we chat about Junior Camp, preview an exciting new Apostolic Kids resource, and share one of the most chaotic bloopers in Superclass history (spoiler: it involves a tornado siren and a full classroom panic).

We also celebrate some incredible wins, including a no-cry toddler class miracle, and share a fishin’ story that just might help you stop overthinking and start doing.

From magnetic object lessons and deep thoughts on God’s plan before creation, to a challenge for every children’s worker: don’t settle—stretch.

Also… don’t let Riley near the soundboard.

In this episode of Apostolic Children’s Ministry, Phillip is joined by Bro. Bob Lee. From blooper-filled classroom moments and object lessons to altar calls and personal ministry insights, this episode has a lot going on. You’ll hear why preparation makes all the difference, how a teabag can preach Acts 2:38, and what happens when you try to sip from two cups at once.

The episode wraps with a thought-provoking deep dive on the danger of mass-producing ministry. Whether you’re new to Sunday School or a seasoned teacher, this is your reminder to keep your lessons fresh, your heart full, and your calling personal. Handmade moments still matter.

In this episode of the Apostolic Children’s Ministry Podcast, Phillip is joined by Trystan for a coast-to-coast conversation full of laughs, victories, and thoughts. They cover camp moments, ministry wins, and a dad joke (of course).

You’ll hear practical tips like why you should never try a lesson for the first time on Sunday, plus a great new kids’ book to check out: “A Spider’s Gotta Do What a Spider’s Gotta Do.”

The episode wraps with a leadership challenge: Ministry isn’t a solo mission. If we want something that lasts, we’ve got to lift others higher than ourselves.

This week’s episode of the Apostolic Children’s Ministry Podcast comes to you in a patched-together style! Phillip checks in from Junior Camp in Alabama, with a behind-the-scenes look at the chaos, the victories, and the incredible people pouring their lives into children’s ministry. We’ve got tech hiccups, fire fails, and a spotlight on Bro. Brantley and the dream team behind Alabama’s new Junior Camp.

Trystan checks in with hits and misses from home and don’t miss a fantastic interview with Bro. Bradshaw that’ll leave you encouraged and reminded—you’re not in this alone.

As always, we’re not the experts—we’re just all in. Let’s grow together.
