Today I'm joined by Bro. Brent and we're talking those distinguishing factors that take us to the next level.

When you return to your corner after the final bell, exhausted but knowing you held nothing back—that's when you've truly succeeded as a fighter.

There is something that distinguishes professionals. They’re on a completely different level.

I believe that most of this is due to countless hours of practice and preparation. But there’s another element, which is how they treat each performance-even if it’s just singing a couple of lines during an interview.

True professionals or experts are always “on” and when they do what they do, it’s at the next level. It may seem effortless, but they give it everything they’ve got.

Some of the things we try to cover:

• Focus
• Enthusiastic Energy
• Empty the Tank
• Halfway is a Waste

Today I'm joined by Bro. Aaron and we're talking about epic Sunday school!

The most memorable children’s productions often emerge from the smallest ideas. When directing Sunday school, the magic often lies in taking the seemingly insignificant – a quick joke, a minor character interaction, or a fleeting moment – and transforming it into something spectacular. Sunday school can thrive on this kind of amplification, where small seeds grow into unforgettable theatrical experiences.

Some of the things we try to cover:

• Amplify small things
• Creating a visual spectacle
• If the character thinks it's important, then it is
• Highlight the unexpected

Today I'm joined by Bro. Matthew and we're talking about labels.

Imagine as a Kidmin leader you walk into an event and a guy yells out, “goofy, crazy, silly!” Then someone else chimes in, “immature, foolish, shallow!” And then an official looking lady comes up with a huge sticker that has all these words and places it squarely on your forehead to wear for the duration of the event. Imagine how you might interact knowing that every time you engaged with someone they were staring at that label.

When we assign labels to those on our staff or those kids in our care, we participate in a powerful act of identity formation. Whether positive or negative, these labels can deeply influence how people behave and grow in their walk with God. Today we want to talk about labeling others and even reevaluating our own labels.

Some of the things we try to cover:

• Shake it off
• God isn't disappointed in you
• Self-fulfilling nature of labels
• Top-of-the-line label maker
