David C Cook has found the most effective way to help children grow in their faith is not simply by providing Bibles or evangelism resources, but by equipping the ministry leaders who teach them. Well-trained leaders who understand children’s spiritual development and know how to engage them with biblical truth have a lasting impact, even in settings with limited resources.
In addition to distributing high-quality, biblical materials for evangelism (Story of Jesus booklets), Bible engagement (The Action Bible), and discipleship (Life on Life free Sunday school curriculum), David C Cook provides practical training to ministry leaders around the world. Regional staff customize training to meet the cultural needs of each community and deliver it through in-person workshops, live webinars, and downloadable online courses that can be accessed even without internet connectivity. Participants complete quizzes and receive certificates, while leaders are also equipped to train others, multiplying the ministry’s reach.
Thousands of ministry leaders have gained knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to serve children effectively. Beyond practical instruction, the training has transformed lives, with many leaders recommitting themselves to Christ, developing a deeper passion for children’s ministry, and witnessing children grow closer to God through their investment.
David C Cook asks for prayer as its international staff continues equipping leaders and as God uses this ministry to impact children, families, and communities worldwide.
