Family Bible Time
Happy Friday!
I am so happy and excited to be joining up with some friends to share resources and tips that will help us Christian parents to cultivate #bibletimelegacy.
Today I am sharing with you our Bible time rhythm. I was convicted when I leaned my job as a Christian parent to teach my children diligently about the Word of God (Deuteronomy 6: 6,7). Pastor Voddie Bauchman Jr says, “Discipleship and multi-generational faithfulness begins and ends at home.” (Family Driven Faith p.9).
If we want our children and our children’s children to be strong and faithful Christians, then it is our duty to teach the Word of God at home.
I didn’t start homeschool with the goal to teach the Bible daily and diligently. God lead me here.
As a result we have Bible time Monday through Friday at the dinning table during breakfast. On the weekend I’ll read a story with Biblical principles. We focus on:
- Daily Bible story using the ESV Seek and Find kids Bible
- memorize one Bible verse per week
- Pray
- and learn one hymn per week.
It’s a beautiful time to lay down a strong Biblical foundation. My desire is that my children know and love the Truth and have the strength and courage to defend it.
We cannot and depend and should not depend on “the church to do what God designed the family to accomplish” - Voddie Bauchman Jr. (Family Driven Faith p. 9). This is why it is so important for us to make Bible time a priority in our family culture.
What does your Bible Time look like? What resources do you use?
