Update: Radio Show

Since the last Sunday in September Kids for Christ USA founder Bob Heath has been doing a weekly radio show on Candle 88FM in Austin, TX. The format of the show has been a work in progress, since radio was not even on the radar screen until late September 2008. So far, we have recorded in an apartment, a car, a dining room and a ice cream shop. "For me, half the fun of this is that is is not a typical studio recording, but just like KFCUSA is outside the church, the show is outside the walls of the studio", said Bob. "The aim of this show is the same as the ministry: To motivate the body of Christ to reach this generation of kids. Hopefully, inspiring a movement that triggers true full on revival in our land".

Variety of Style is Exciting

I am of the belief that authenticity is a significant part of effectively reaching the heart of kids. That is why I have never been a fan of traditional curriculums. Many times they are followed as the only way one is allowed to teach a group of kids. Instead of a message that is full of life that kids can connect with, they end up with dry “by the book” messages. The curriculum that I collaborated with a friend is designed to draw on my personal belief that we as believers have all the creativity of the creator of the universe living on the inside of us. The KFCUSA is included in my book: “How Are You Doing That”? (Purchase at www.robertcheath.com)

Homerun in Pennsylvania

In my travels around the USA sharing the concepts of Kids for Christ USA with congregations, I have learned that some trips are more effective than others. My trip to Franklin/Seneca, PA was quite possibly the most effective trip I have EVER taken. Only time will tell.

Not only did I do a three session training seminar, but God opened the door for me to prayer with pretty much everyone who was at the meeting at the end of the third session. It was awesome because this is something I don't get to do all that often. It included praying for a young man who was dealing with some pretty significant issues and an older lady who had just been released from the hospital. They brought her to me at the restaurant after the meetings.

How Are You Doing That Training in Iowa

Well the "How Are You Doing That Training" in Mt Pleasant, IA was a smashing success. The turn out was small, but the potential impact was huge. The people that came are the kind of people I would classify as "doers". Not only that but over 66 percent of them bought my newly published book!

Adults once again our kids have lead the way and we are dragging behind. I am refering to internet communities such as "Facebook". I know mnay of you Moms and Dads have resisted the very thought for a variety of reasons.

I am constantly searching for better ways to get more people involved in this vision, so that we can reach more and more kids accross the USA. Between the tools on Facebook itself and the fact that many cell phone carriers make "Facebook mobile" available as a part of their servies I have found it to be a VERY POWERFUL tool

"What Does Kids for Christ USA Mean to You"?

Every two years we close the year with a little poll we call the “Year End Survey” (Original huh?) Four years ago we asked 236 children in the Tulsa area a series of questions (See story titled, “Year End Student Survey 2003-04 on this website.) Two years ago the survey was done with by the groups we worked with in Sacramento, CA (See Story titled, “Update: Sacramento”.) This year I tried something a tad different. In the spirit of being a random sampling I sent out this question to everyone in our Kids for Christ USA group on Facebook. The responses couldn’t have been more perfect if I had planed it AND I DIDN’T!

Four of the people that responded were:

1-College Theology Student Volunteer
1-Lead Minister/Teacher
1-KFCUSA Board Member
1-Jr. High Student

Dating Perspectives of a Christian Teen's Dad

Right off the bat, I am just going to tell you three things:

1. In this case the teenager is my SON. Have you ever noticed that articles like this are usually written from the perspective of the girl’s father?

2. If you buy into the “I Kissed Dating Goodbye” theory, I should just kiss you goodbye right now, because you won’t want to hear this.

3. If you are looking for some deep spiritual directive in this piece, good luck! I promise not to use multiple Scriptures to make my points, just Biblically based horse sense. I intend this to poignant, but slightly comedic. Parenting is hard enough with a sense of humor.
