For many years, we did our family devotion time in the early evening. It consisted of prayer, scripture reading, teaching/discussion on what was read, and prayer to close.
Admittedly, we were not as faithful to our devotional time as we should have been. There were times when we'd go several days without such study, allowing various distractions to keep us from the time.
But at the beginning of this year, we changed our schedule. Now, I get up a half-hour earlier than I used to, and we do them in the morning before I go to work. Since the change, we haven't missed any devotions- and the whole family has admitted to being far more prepared and refreshed for the day ahead.
So at this point, I endorse morning family devotions. How about y'all? What kind of devotional schedule for family devotion time is most edifying for you and yours?
(note I'm referring to family and not personal devotion time. I do my personals in the morning, too- always have)
