Family Devotions Ideas
 |
Varying the type of devotional activities can also keep things fresh,
point to Christ as the families' center and fulfill the exhortation in
Deut. 6:4-9.
Some Ideas:
* During the changing season of spring, Collect different types of leaves
and talk about God’s majestic beauty.
* During the summer, talk about the endless bounty of God's goodness.
* During the changing season of autumn, collect different colors of leaves and talk about the beautiful canvas of God's design.
* During Advent, weekly lighting of the advent candle, an advent calendar,
Christmas songs and lessons.
* During Lent, Christ in the Passover Seder meals.
* Acts of charity at Christmas or anytime. Consider making cookies as
a family and take them to a nursing facility or rescue shelter. Christmas
is about giving, and demonstrating this to your children can have a lasting
impact.
* At Thanksgiving time, make a thankful list poster. What are you thankful
for?
* Conversational prayers at bedtime.
* Reading aloud children's devotional books or Bible chapters before bed.
* Missionary faces on the refrigerator, with updates from their newsletters
discussed at supper.
* Memory verses at breakfast.
