5-day reading plan focused on God's Purpose for you!
Day 1: God Has an Eternal Purpose for Everything
Day 2: God’s Purposes Are Pure
Day 3: God’s Purpose for You Is Active
Day 4: Yield to God’s Purposes
Day 5: God’s Purpose Requires Response
This document is a chapter from a book titled "Increase God's Way" by Jerry Savelle. The chapter discusses how the author was originally lied to by well-meaning Christians who told him things like God causes sickness and loves poverty. However, after studying the Bible himself, he discovered God's original intent was for people to live blessed lives with health, increase, and success. The chapter argues that financial increase should be expected by Christians as a covenant right, and encourages readers to declare war on any lack or poverty in their lives by standing on their rights in God.
This document provides a 4-step guide to developing a close bond with Christ: 1) Read the Bible daily to learn about God and apply its teachings; 2) Pray constantly in sincerity to communicate with God and seek his help; 3) Fast regularly by depriving yourself of food/drink to focus spiritually and grow stronger in faith; 4) Sing praises to God through music, poetry and dance to glorify, worship and commune with him. Following these steps will help maintain a relationship with Christ through good and bad times and prepare for eternal life.
This document is a sermon by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome discussing the concept of faith and possibility. The key points are:
1. Attending Christ Embassy church teaches followers about living according to the spirit of God's word, which allows His vision to be manifested in their lives and influence others.
2. True faith, even in small amounts, allows believers to accomplish anything according to God's word. Having faith means acting on God's promises without seeing results.
3. Words have power and believers must be careful with their speech, as confessing difficulties can manifest them. Speaking God's promises over one's life aligns it with His vision of blessings and success.
The document discusses the nature of love through multiple passages. It describes love as something that flows at times but also trickles, and can be refilled through Jesus. Love is portrayed as unconditional from Jesus, perfect, free, and everlasting. Small acts of love and kindness for others are emphasized as ways to spread love in the world and find fulfillment. Putting others' needs above your own through caring actions benefits both the recipient and the person performing the kind act.
This document summarizes key points from a teaching on prayer based on Ephesians 1:15-19. It discusses three main ideas:
1. The supremacy of prayer - Paul's most important prayer was that people would know God better by taking Him into their hearts and minds. Knowing about God is less important than knowing God Himself.
2. The integrity of prayer - Giving priority to outer life over inner life leads to feeling uncomfortable with self-reflection and lacking integrity. Cultivating an inner prayer life is important.
3. The hardness of prayer - Prayer is difficult work that requires searching for God, even when feeling His absence. Persisting through dryness and discomfort can lead to a flour
This document introduces a prophecy given to the author in 1998 that extraordinary things would become the norm in their life beginning in 1999. The prophecy is meant to encourage believers to expect the extraordinary and uncommon in every area of their lives. The author defines what biblical prophecy is, emphasizes the importance of taking prophecy seriously and acting upon it, and discusses some principles for receiving prophecy, including standing in faith and believing for the fulfillment of prophecies even when circumstances appear contrary. The rest of the book will explore what it means to expect the extraordinary and how readers can position themselves to receive the extraordinary blessings and works of God in their own lives.
This document is a chapter from the book "Take Charge of Your Financial Destiny" by Jerry Savelle. The chapter discusses protecting your seed, which refers to money or resources intended for sowing or investing. It describes how Satan tries to consume people's seed through unexpected expenses or convincing them they can't afford to give. It highlights the story of Abram driving away birds that tried to consume his sacrifice before he could present it to God. The chapter teaches that seed is meant for sowing, not consuming, and that sowing seed determines your future through the law of sowing and reaping.

This article discusses the different degrees of love and how Jesus demonstrated the greatest love by laying down his life for mankind. It describes Jesus' agony in the garden of Gethsemane and how he willingly sacrificed himself to save humanity from sin. The author emphasizes that nothing can separate believers from Jesus' immense love.
My heart is, and has been, burdened about the state of the Church for more than 30 years. We have taken on so many traditions of men. These are traditions that annul Scripture just as Jesus scolded the Pharisees for. I have been feeling compelled by God to write and expose what I believe to be the main or root cause that allows us to build these unbiblical traditions.
Sadly, when I have discussed these things with pastors and Christians in general, while they agree that we now more often than not, preach a sugar-coated gospel, they just cannot see the depth of the problem. It challenges their basic assumptions far too much. I needed to write a fact-based work, with much data that can prove what I am trying to convey and what God is saying to the Western Church today....
1) To know God, we must read and study his word, the Bible, and meditate on it alone and with other Christians.
2) The Bible is God's love letter to help us come to know him as our Father and obey him as our Lord.
3) God's word teaches us, corrects us, guides us in righteousness, and equips us to do good works.
The document is the February 2018 newsletter from Tates Creek Christian Church. It includes articles from various church ministers focusing on having a heart for lost people and evangelism.

It also announces upcoming church classes and events happening in February and March.

The Book of Revelation, filled with symbolic and apocalyptic imagery, presents one of its most striking visions in Revelation 9:3-12—the locust army. Understanding the significance of this locust army provides insight into the broader themes of divine judgment, protection, and the ultimate triumph of God’s will as depicted in Revelation.
Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...OmarBarrezueta1
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).

7. Love your enemies, do good
to those who hate you, and
pray for those who hurt you
and persecute you.
—Matthew 5:44, paraphrased
As Jesus
Did
Jesus was amazing! Did you know that when He was
dying, He asked His Father to forgive the people who had
nailed Him to the cross? He wanted the men who had
done that terrible deed to receive God’s forgiveness. That
was probably very difficult for Jesus to do, but He did it
because He has so much love for everyone.
Jesus wants us to show love and kindness to others too.
Even if those we show kindness to are unkind, we can
show them how much Jesus loves them by being caring
and nice and acting like Jesus would. We can also show
our love and kindness by praying for others.
It is not easy to be nice to others when they are not nice
to us, but it is part of showing God’s love to others.
8. Cut four big circles out of paper. Write an
“L” on one circle, “O” on one, “V” on one,
and “E” on the last to spell ”LOVE.” Now
draw a picture of a kind deed you can do for
someone else on each circle. Staple the edge
of each circle in order (“L-O-V-E”) together
and hang it on your wall.
9. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they
shall be called the children of God.
—Matthew 5:9 KJV
Make
Peace
What is a peacemaker? A peacemaker is someone who
chooses to make peace rather than pick a fight. That
is sometimes a hard choice to make, especially when
someone has made us angry, and we want to show that
person how upset we are at what he or she has done.
When we choose to forgive and make peace with
someone who has wronged us, then we are peacemakers.
People can see that God’s Spirit lives in us and that we
are children of God.
Jesus was a peacemaker. He chose to do the things that
were kind toward others—He forgave others. His actions
and words showed others how much God loved them.
God blesses us when we choose to show forgiveness and
be a peacemaker. When we choose to make peace instead
of fighting, we are being a good reflection of Jesus’ love
to others.
Talk about times when
you could choose to
be a peacemaker, even
when someone has done
something wrong to you.
10.
11. He who is faithful
in that which is least
is faithful also in much.
—Luke 16:10, paraphrased
Caring for
Things Big
and Small
As we grow up, we learn to do tasks. We learn how to
help with chores, like how to make our beds, tidy the
toys, care for our pets, and keep our cupboards clean.
Learning to be diligent in our chores, even if they are
small tasks, teaches us good habits. Through it we learn
to care for small things and big things.
When we take good care of the things we have, then
we can be trusted with more. Sometimes we think that
something is small or not important, and so we don’t
take such good care of it. But even little things are
important.
When we are diligent in how we care for what we
already have, our actions show others that we can be
trusted to take good care of other things too.
12. Make a chart of two jobs you
are learning to do. Don’t forget
to put all the days of the week
on your chart. Every time you
remember to do your job, give
yourself a sticker.
13. Redeem the time.
—Ephesians 5:16, paraphrased
Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
Have you ever listened to a clock tick? Every tick you hear is
time that is passing.
The Bible tells us that we should make the most of our time.
That means we should do our best to use our time wisely by
learning to focus on whatever it is that we need to do and
completing it as quickly and thoroughly as possible.
Sometimes, though, we may not want to do what we need to
do, so we let ourselves be distracted, or we complain about
what we have to do. When we do this, we are not using time
wisely. It is as if we are throwing our time away. When a day is
done, all that time is gone. We cannot get it back. And many
times we still have to do the things that were left undone.
Jesus wants us to look back on each day and feel glad for how
we used our time. The best ways we can use our time wisely
are by helping others, doing what we are asked, studying and
learning, and by reading and living God’s Word. If we do these
things, we can be happy that our time is being used well.
Ask your mommy or daddy to
show you a clock or watch in
your house that has a second
hand. Put it to your ear and
listen to the clock tick. Talk
about ways you can use your
time better.
14.
15. The eyes of the Lord are
everywhere, keeping watch on
the evil and the good.
—Proverbs 15:3, paraphrased
God Is
Everywhere
God is very powerful! He is everywhere at all times. He
can see things that no one else can. The Bible tells us that
He is keeping watch on all that we do.
There are times when we might be tempted to do
something that we know isn’t right. There may not be
anyone around to see what we have done, but we should
always remember that God sees. He knows what we have
done, and He judges us accordingly.
When we choose to do what is right, even when no one
else does, God knows that, too. He blesses us for making
the right choice. In fact, if we stop to listen we can hear
His voice speak to our hearts, telling us to do what is
right. When we listen to His voice, He will guide us to
what is good and right.
16. Think about some of your
favorite places to hide in
your house. Do you think
God knows where to find
you when you are hiding?
No one is ever “lost” to
God—He knows just
where you are at all times.
Talk about some of the
things that you do when no
one is around that would
make God proud of you.
17. Give, and it will
be given to you.
—Luke 6:38 NIV
Drop a
Little
Sunshine
Giving is one way that we can show love to others. And
did you know that we can give to others by the things
we say and do? We can speak words of thoughtfulness
and kindness, and that is giving love to others. We can
do deeds to help others, and this is showing our love.
This was what Jesus meant when He told us to give to
others, and that others will give in return.
When we think about others and give from our hearts,
then others are likely to return our kindness. Jesus also
gives to us when we share what we have with others, by
filling our hearts with gladness and joy.
Throughout our days we can be looking for ways to drop
a little sunshine into someone’s day, through our smiles,
our gentle words, a thoughtful deed, a prayer, a helping
hand. Everyone needs love, and we can make our family
and friends happier by showing love and kindness
wherever we go.
18. Think of someone you’d like to
do a kind deed for. Get a small
piece of paper to make a “giving
coupon,” and ask your mommy
or daddy to help you write on
that paper what you’d like to give
to that person. Then decorate the
paper with pictures and colors.
When you’re done, give the
coupon to the person you were
thinking of, and see how it will
brighten his or her day.
19. It is more blessed to give
than to receive.
—Acts 20:35 KJV
A Gift of
Giving
Gifts have a wonderful way of making us feel special. We
all like to be given presents, especially if it is something that
we have wanted very much. It makes us glad when someone
thinks of us and makes the effort to get a gift just for us.
The Bible teaches us that even though we like to receive
gifts or receive help from others, giving to others is more
important than receiving from others. God blesses us when
we think of others and give to them.
If all we think about is ourselves and getting more things,
we become selfish and we ignore other people and what
they may need. When we put the good of others above our
own wants, this is called being unselfish. Being unselfish
means we are thinking about other people and how we can
help them—we are first thinking of others and then about
ourselves. And did you know that often when we help
others, God in return helps us?
Giving to others is a way to spread God’s love in a simple
but wonderful way.
20. Would you like to try giving to someone else
and see how happy it makes you feel? Ask your
mommy or daddy to help you find a toy that you
don’t use anymore and that you think would make
a friend happy. Wrap it up and then put a tag on
it that says, “To my friend, because you are special
to me.” And don’t forget to write your name too.
How did that bit of giving make you feel?
To: Joe
21. A man reaps what he sows.
—Galatians 6:7 NIV
The Seeds
We Plant
If you plant a seed in soil, water it, and care for it, it will
grow into a plant. The things we do are like little seeds.
Sometimes what we do for someone else seems so small
and like it won’t matter much, but it does. Just as little
seeds can grow into healthy plants, our actions, if they are
good and kind, will result in goodness and kindness that
will come back to us. This is why it pays off when our
actions are kind and thoughtful.
When we are kind to someone, it’s like we are planting a
little seed of love in that person’s heart. And if we water
that seed, by continuing to be kind and thoughtful, then
love will grow.
The more kindness we show others, the more kindness
others will show us in return. So plant a little seed of love
in someone’s heart today.
22. Trace your hand on a piece of
paper, and then draw a flower
at the end of each of your
fingers. Color the picture.
Think of five acts of kindness
or thoughtfulness that you
can do for someone else, and
ask your mommy or daddy
to write a kind deed in each
of the “flower fingers” of your
drawing. Now remember to
try to do those kind things.
23. Rejoice in the Lord always.
—Philippians 4:4 NIV
Better
Days with
Jesus
The Bible tells us that no matter what is happening
around us, or even how we feel, we can rejoice in Jesus.
Do you know what it means to rejoice? It means that we
show great happiness. We can talk about our joy in Jesus,
and even when things are not as we want them to be,
Jesus’ presence in our day always makes it better.
When we think about Jesus and His love and care for us,
our hearts can know joy; we can trust that even when our
day seems a little upside down, Jesus will be there to turn
everything right-side up. But we have to do our part first
by talking to Jesus and asking Him for His help. And
when we do, good things will start to happen.
Our days are always better when we fill our hearts with
praise and thanksgiving to Jesus for all the love and
goodness that He brings into our lives.
Can you think of two things
about Jesus that make you
glad? Talk about how thinking
about Jesus can make even a
difficult day better.
24.
25. How good and how pleasant
it is to live together in unity.
—Psalm 133:1, paraphrased
Sweet
Harmony
Did you know that in an ant colony hundreds of ants
will live and work together, diligently doing their tasks to
make sure that everything is running properly? Ants are
hard workers, and they know how to work together well.
If you watch ants at work, you won’t see ants from the
same colony fighting or taking things from each other.
They work in harmony.
We can learn a lesson from the ants. When we work
together in harmony, we can get a lot done. It also makes
everything more pleasant.
Sometimes it’s not easy to play or work with a brother
or sister who is bothering us or making us upset. But the
Bible tells us that when we can be together in unity—in
harmony—this is good. When we settle our arguments,
forgive someone who has upset us, and choose to show
love, this is how we can make harmony among ourselves.
26. Draw a picture of an ant colony, with
many ants working together to collect
food, care for the young ants, keep the
colony clean, and more. Talk about
some of the ways that you live together
in harmony with your family, and ways
you can also make it better.
27. Do everything without
complaining or arguing.
—Philippians 2:14 NIV
With a
Cheerful
Heart
Has your mommy or daddy ever asked you to do something
that you didn’t want to do, such as having to clean up your
toys when you would rather play, or doing something your
brother or sister wants to do instead of getting your way? It
can be difficult to do these things without complaining or
arguing.
God’s Word teaches us that we should do all things with a
cheerful heart. That means without complaining or arguing.
Sometimes we may think that if we make a fuss about what
we have to do, we won’t have to do it. But instead, all the
time we spent arguing or complaining has been wasted,
because we still have to do what we needed to do.
The best thing is to do what we know is right as quickly as
possible. This makes it easier for our parents and those who
have asked for our help. It also makes it easier for us, because
things are done quicker when we don’t complain or argue
about them, and then we can go on to do something else we’ll
enjoy doing. We are also pleasing God when we do what we
know is right.
Ask your mommy or daddy
if there is something they
would like you to do to help
them around the house, then
practice doing it right away
with a cheerful heart.
28.
29. Let all things be done
decently and in order.
—1 Corinthians 14:40 KJV
Diligent in
All Things
Have you ever done a chore, but then your mommy or
daddy asked you to do it again because you didn’t do it
right the first time? Sometimes we want to get a job done
as quickly as we can so that we can get to something we
would prefer to do. But learning to do a task properly is
an important part of growing up.
We learn responsibility and diligence when we do things
thoroughly. Sometimes the things we are asked to do seem
unimportant, but they help us to build good habits that
will make a difference in our lives as we grow up.
The Bible tells us that when we are diligent in the small
things, then God and others can trust us with jobs or
responsibilities that are more important. Little by little,
each day we can learn how to do our tasks in the right
way. We can learn how to see a need and respond in
helpful ways. We can learn to do our tasks with order and
diligence. And in these small ways we are growing and
maturing into the boys and girls that God wants us to be.
30. Pretend your parents have asked you to put your toys away,
but instead of doing that, pretend to hop like a bunny,
then spin like a top, and now roar like a lion. Do you
remember what you were supposed to do? You may have
forgotten, but you still need to clean up the toys, right?
Now try it again. When your mommy or daddy asks you to
clean up, do it right away. That is being diligent!
31. A gentle answer turns
away wrath.
—Proverbs 15:1 NIV
Slow to
Become
Angry
There are times when others do things that bother us or
make us upset. The Bible says that we should be slow to
become angry. When we do something slowly, it means
we take extra time to think about what we do and say.
If someone says or does something that upsets us, often
we want to answer back with an angry word or deed. But
that’s not being slow to anger, and it will only make the
problem worse. Jesus wants us to think before we react
to what others have done, and make sure our actions are
done in love instead of anger.
The next time someone does something that upsets you,
go slow and try to think of a way to answer the wrong
deed or ugly word with kindness and gentleness. Act
slowly and patiently. Problems are solved better that way.
32. Learn the following saying to
remember whenever something
makes you angry.
When I’m angry, I’ll answer slowly,
By first counting … one, two, three.
33. Carry each other’s burdens.
—Galatians 6:2 NIV
Lend a
Hand
Have you tried to lift something that was too heavy for
you, and then someone came and helped you lift it? You
probably felt happy for the help.
Throughout our days we will find people who need our
help, and whenever we can we should try to give them
a hand. When we help others we show kindness and
thoughtfulness. One important way we can help other
people is by being friendly and courteous.
Jesus was a good example of helping other people. He
took time to help people. He made friends with people
whom others did not like, and He made those who were
sad happy. We can do the same!
Sometimes it may not be easy to help someone else, or
we may have to stop doing something we want to do
in order to help. Even when it is difficult to do, helping
others is important.
34. Ask your parents or a friend
how you can help, and then
lend a helping hand. Even
helping in a small way will
make a difference.
35. God is not the author of
confusion, but of peace.
—1 Corinthians 14:33 KJV
Listen!
What Can
You Hear?
Have you noticed that everything in creation is in
harmony and has a pattern? God likes calm and peace.
He created the world without unnecessary noise and
confusion.
We can take a lesson from God’s wonderful creation, and
learn to be peaceful and calm. There is a time and place
to have fun and be noisy, but we should learn to know
when it is time to stop before it begins to get confusing.
When we run around and act wild, or create confusion,
it disrupts other people, and that is when accidents or
problems can happen.
God wants us to be happy and to enjoy ourselves, but
learning when to be peaceful is important too. When
we are calm and quiet, we are then able to see and hear
things that we do not notice when we are noisy and
unruly. Take time to be peaceful, and see what new
things you will discover!
36. Take a few minutes to be
quiet and listen to all the
things around you that you
would not be able to hear
if you were being noisy.
What did you hear? How
does it make you feel when
you are calm and quiet?
37. A Word to the Parent
“Do you love Me?” Jesus asked Peter.
“Lord, You know all things,” Peter answered. “You know that I love You.”
“Then feed My sheep,” Jesus said. “And take care of My little ones.”
—Based on John 21:15–17.
5-Minute Bible Devotionals is a collection of Christian and character-building books written for children ages four on up. Each devotional is
built on a Bible verse, and explains to a child in simple terms what the principles of that verse mean and how it applies to daily living.
I wrote these books to provide opportunities for conversation and discussion on Christian values between parent and child on a level
that is relatable to a child. You can simply select a devotional to read with your child and pause when questions are posed in the text to allow
time for your child to answer. Then encourage your child to express personal experiences or thoughts that relate to the theme you are reading.
Included with each devotional is a simple activity, such as a discussion question, a short rhyme to learn, or a simple project. I have
found that emphasizing the lesson I am teaching my children by means of interactive activities brings that spark of fun into the mix that makes
these important times of learning a joy.
The Bible verses included with each devotional have been selected from a variety of translations or revised so that they are easy for a
young child to understand. Children can also be taught these verses. Repeat the verse several times with your child; he or she should soon be
able to recite it from memory. Make a point to review the verses a couple of times a week so the child retains what has been learned.
In addition, I will often spice up a devotional reading by including related Bible or character-building stories that complement the
principles being taught.
My aim for these books was to have a way to teach my young children Bible-based values, and I have had a wonderful time sharing
these simple truths with them in this way. It is my hope that you’ll experience the same.
