Rooted Conference: Communicating the Importance of Family Ministry with Jimmy Kim

Offering the 'what' and the 'why' of family ministry, longtime family minister Jimmy Kim also shares the 'how' of implementing family ministry in the local church. Working off the definition of family ministry as "churches equipping and empowering parents to spiritually invest in their kids," he offers ways to develop a family ministry that works in your context, for the spiritual formation of parents and kids and for God's glory. Jimmy Kim is a husband, a father of two, and the Executive Director of Family Transformation at Perimeter Church near Atlanta, GA.References:How to Start a Family Ministry: A Practical Workshop with Cameron ColeHow to Start a Family Ministry handoutDeuteronomy 6: 4-9Proverbs 22:6Psalm 139Ephesians 6:-14Perspectives on Family MInistry: Three Views by Timothy Paul JonesHanding Down the Faith: How Parents Pass Their Religion on to the Next Generation by Christian Smith and Amy AdamczykUS Surgeon General Report on the Mental Health of ParentsThe Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick LencioniHow to Start a Family Ministry in Your Church by Andy CornettFind more information about Rooted's family ministry mentorship program.Check out more resources on family ministry and family discipleship.Join us for our 2025 Conference in Chicago, IL!
