Dear Friends:
Happy New Year!
My wife Jean and I did devotions with our boys throughout their childhoods. But there was always an issue to resolve: What kind of devotions?
Jean preferred formal times of Scripture reading and devotion. Her degree is in biochemistry, so it fit her personality to whip up a lesson with the creativity and skill of a schoolteacher. As for me, I’m spontaneous and loose. I chatted with my boys about the Bible when we were engaged in routine activities, like driving back and forth to school.
Fortunately, Trent and Troy responded well to both approaches.
Author and speaker Tim Shoemaker joined me on Focus on the Family with Jim Daly to offer practical ideas that will enrich your family devotions and help your children be fully engaged when learning God’s Word.
