If Children's Pastors Ruled...
by Roger Fields
  • The church water fountain would dispense Kool Aid.

  • Hymns would have motions.

  • The adult service would have a flashing light signaling when children’s church was out so the pastor could dismiss the adults.

  • Children’s Pastors would be well paid and Senior Pastors would get a cracker and juice allowance.

  • The Senior Pastor would have to put up with YOUR kid.

  • Nursery duty would be mandatory for all choir members.

  • Ushers would pass out animal crackers.

  • Puppets would staff the church welcome center.

  • People being baptized would be allowed to splash.

  • Greeters would wear full body costumes and do balloon sculpting.

  • Every Sunday you could poke your head into the adult service and bark out, “Keep it quiet!” and they would obey.

  • Church staff meetings would be held at Chuck E. Cheese.

  • It would be considered harmless fun to wear cowboy gear and blast holes into the church grand piano while yelling “yee haw.”

  • Adults would raise their hands during the sermon and ask the Senior Pastor for permission to go to the bathroom.

  • Church boards could only say one phrase: “Go ahead, we don’t care how much it costs.”

  • The Senior Pastor would get permission from the Children’s Pastor before adding any new worship services or scheduling any special events.

  • Puppets would come up with their own skits.

  • The church tithes would go to the children’s department first. Any money left over would be dispensed in small increments to the general fund.

  • When people got saved in the adult service the Senior Pastor would fire off a confetti cannon.

  • The adult service would have to use the sound system with the high-pitched hum.

  • Children’s workers that didn’t show up would be fined. At the end of the year you could use the money to go to the Bahamas while they ran VBS for you.
