Called to Lead, Called to Parent: Grace-Filled Parenting in Ministry Life

Katie Polski, Trinity Church Kirkwood

2026

Ministering to our children while serving in ministry can feel like a constant balancing act. Ministry leaders often carry the weight of caring for God’s people while wondering how their calling impacts their own families. In this seminar, we’ll lay a grace-filled foundation rooted in Scripture, reminding ourselves that God—not us— is the author of our children’s stories. Drawing from personal experience as both a pastor’s kid and a ministry parent, this workshop offers encouragement, honest reflection, and practical principles for loving Jesus, loving the church, and loving our children well.
