Bible and devotions

Filed under: Family Devotions, kids, reading — Josh @ 11:49 pm

Just came across this good post about family devotions.  The one concept that was a new thought to me was that each child should have their own Bible during the Bible reading time.  Usually I try and get out the Bible and have all the kids listen.  It never occurred to me to have them get out their own Bibles.  We probably need to purchase some additional kids Bibles but that is a small price to pay for family devotions.  I still need to come up with a “box” to put the Bibles in or maybe a shelf.
