Ken & Beth Kahl - Authors and trainers for "Operation Go Kids"
The Great Commission says, "go ye into all the world and preach the gospel." This command is to all Christians, even kids. We believe that "Operation Go Kids" is a great way to get them involved in soul winning at an early age. Kids should never be discouraged from doing this very important work. It is so important to give them the tools they need to serve the Lord now.
We wrote "Operation Go Kids" with 4th through 6th graders in mind, kids who want to be involved. This training takes place during the normal Monday night soul winning time. While mom and dad are out soul winning, the kids are learning to serve the Lord themselves. The whole church gets involved praying for the trainees. At the end we have a diploma ceremony for those who complete their training and we follow that up with a party to celebrate their hard work. We like to make it a "Big Deal." Truly, it is a big deal to serve our Lord with all our heart and with all the tools available. A great plan is one of the best tools of all.
After the kids have completed the course, we give them opportunities to use their skills. They get to go soul winning with adults who help them to keep and develop their new skills. The course ends in six weeks but their training never ends.
"Operation Go Kids" is an adaptation of the soul winning program "Operation Go" by Dr. David A. Wood.
