This wholly Apostolic discipleship tool will help you engage your family members in God’s Word every day of the week. By exploring a biblical passage from Sunday to Saturday with simple, fun activities, God’s Word for Families will bring parents and kids closer to God.


Weekly Overview:
✨Sunday – Introduction (an age-appropriate version of the week’s Bible passage)
✨Monday – “Why?” (activities that show the purpose behind the Bible study)
✨Tuesday – Analytic Learning (“Fun Facts!” and “Did You Know?” activities to dig deeper into Scripture)
✨Wednesdays – Worship (a featured lyric video and other Apostolic songs)
✨Thursday – Real-life Application (a present-day story to illustrate the Bible lesson)
✨Friday – Discussion (questions for parents and kids to ask each other about our faith)
✨Saturday – Family Project (an activity for the family to do to put our faith in action)
My Review:
I enjoyed jumping into this book right away.  We jumped around so I could review more parts of the book so we started in week 10 because the title, "growing like a tree" caught my attention.   I highly enjoyed week 10 because it wasn't just sharing a bible story but rather digging deep into Psalms which I highly enjoyed.   


Each day of the week had different themes and I really enjoyed the authors creativity for them. My children are getting much older for this devo but we still enjoyed it and my family had some higher level discussions which I really appreciated.  With that said I think if you have some large gaps between your children this devotional would still be one that could be used as each person will probably love a different day of the week. For my I personally love the fun facts as well as the discussions/stories on Thursday to help us apply it to our lives. I know if my kids were younger they would enjoy the family projects.   Week 10 had a science experiment so as a parent you should be looking ahead to have all your supplies or build it into your routine to go get them as part of your Saturday.          




I know several families that would enjoy this devotional!  I hope one of my readers wins one of the 10 they are giving away.   

TO order your book go HERE!   Also, it is on SALE right now!   Only $14.99 which I think is a great price for such a packed filled family devotional.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
