Getting Ready for Easter

Children learn faith from their parents. Church definitely plays a role in teaching them, but all the teaching of theology and morals and all the great object lessons will mean nothing unless they are backing up what the child sees lived out, and hears talk of, at home. And so one of the side projects I have going at the moment is preparing a family devotional kit for the last two weeks of Lent. Lent is a time for preparing for Easter, just as Advent is the preparation before Christmas. I would love to offer something to help parents make Godly conversation more common in their home. I would love to know that parents in our church are teaching their children what it means to love Jesus. What it means that he died for us. Why it is that they go to church as a family. Pray for the families in our church, that they would understand that what the church is teaching their child is meant to back up what THEY are teaching, and that we would love to partner with them to help them do that at home.
