Soonerborn
Puritan Board Freshman
I have 4 children (the oldest is 7).
We have regular, daily family worship and have been doing this since my oldest was born. We typically will pray, sing a song, and then read a passage of scripture. I go through the books from start to finish and give a brief exposition and application of the verses. Because of how young they are, we make it through books sometimes very slowly, as I often only read 10 or so verses a night.
For a "season" I am wanting to teach something more of a topical nature- just to break up our time. For example some ideas I had were to teach on the Parables of Jesus, Miracles of Jesus, What the Bible has to say about (Fill in the Blank)..or more Systematic Subjects such as Who God is, Who Man is, Salvation, Sin, etc,etc...
Again, my oldest is 7 so I want something with "meat" but is not way over their head. Any ideas on what you do for your time of Family Worship?
Thanks!
