Amy Grisham loves getting the opportunity to brainstorm with leaders as they work to make their ministries fantastic places where kids learn about having a relationship with Jesus. She thinks it's so cool to see how God has wired leaders to do what He has called them to do. She also loves being a mother and wife and doing ministry as a family, as her boys, ages 11 and 13, start to come into their own and begin to see how God has wired them! She admits to being an embarrassingly rabid fan of any team her boys play on. She says, “I am definitely one of 'those' moms at the ballpark—but only because I'm the world's biggest cheerleader for my boys!”
What’s so Great about Orange?
Thursday March 22, 2018 | Amy Grisham“What’s so great about Orange? What makes you unique?” It’s a question we get almost daily.

Different leaders have different elements that […] Read more

Orange in Small Town, USA
Tuesday October 25, 2016 | Amy GrishamAs we look at the life of Jesus, we see that He thought the idea of meeting with a small group of people was important. We see Him taking the time to meet with people, in their homes—not necessarily people who were the “power-brokers” of His time, but people like us, the everyday people. If […] Read more
Setting Relationships Before Tasks
Tuesday July 26, 2016 | Amy GrishamRelationships are hard. A “to-do” list is easy. This is true in every aspect of life—even our ministry life. If you are like me, you’d much rather simply tackle your to-do’s than tackle what may be at the root of the issues that consistently plague us in ministry . . . difficult relationships. It’s easy […] Read more

We want to effectively pass information along to parents so they can have meaningful and strategic follow-up with their children during the week. We want to equip them to lead their […] Read more
