Shared Lessons

Being a Sunday school teacher involves many skills. From knowing the lesson and the kids in your class, to keeping an eye on the time to make sure you have enough time for snacks. There’s a lot to manage. The Network is recruiting volunteers who are willing to share their knowledge and ministry experiences with others for the Sunday School section on The Network. If you have passion for teaching children please consider volunteering as a guide, regular contributor, or guest blogger.

Here are some details on who were looking for...

Guide

Network guides are volunteers who usually serve a one-year term as the main blogger for a particular network and guide readers to resources that may be useful in ministry. If you’re a Sunday school coordinator or teacher (or have been in the past) you might be a perfect candidate. You don’t need to be an expert in all aspects of sunday school ministry but simply willing to share your knowledge, experience, or even questions that you’ve come across in working with children.

Check out the Guide Expectations to get the full details on what we're looking for and if interested fill out the Network Guide Application/Nomination Form.

Regular Contributor

If a one-year guide term seems a bit much for you right now, consider being a regular contributor. Perhaps you have a fresh take on lesson plans, working with volunteers, snack choices, or any number of sunday school related topics. We’d love to hear them.

This is not the same level of commitment as expected of network guides. We’re looking for people willing to send us just several blogs a year; to be part of a team that would contribute fresh perspectives about the world of youth ministry. You can use the same guide application form to let us know that you’re interested.

Guest Blogger

Finally if you just want to dip your toe in the water, think about writing a guest blog. Is there a practical tip that you’ve discovered that might help others? Is there a ministry story where there are lessons worth sharing? Now’s your chance to share!

To get started submit your guest blog idea using this Blog Ideas Form. You don’t need to have it all written...just give us a bit of information about your subject matter. If we decide to use it, we’ll follow up with you about getting started writing the blog.

So are you the person we’re looking for? Please considering these opportunities to share the lessons you’ve learned with others.
