Orange Week: A Strategy that Works

I’ve been in full-time youth ministry for 14 years now and have been actively involved with children’s ministry for 2.  I’ve read countless books, looked at a variety of curriculum and have been to numerous seminars and conferences.  Out of all that I have been to or worked with, the Orange Strategy that reThink has developed and worked on has been the only one that has really resinated with me.

When the church and families buy-in and participate, I have seen first hand how much of an impact it has with children and their families. Orange makes it easy for church and the families to work together so that everyone hears about Christ and has the opportunity to be changed.  It is not just the church presenting the information and letting them deal with it.  It actively engages the families and through their specialists they will walk through it with you to help you adapt it to your particular ministry.  And, the great news is, when families and the church work together in unison, the greater the impact for the Kingdom.
