A Family Night Idea: Discuss the Importance of reading the Bible and praying.
I like visiting Christian blogs, reading Christian books, and listening to Christian radio stations. All of these things teach me more about Jesus.
However, my pastor reminded me that these Christian things do not replace reading the Bible and praying. It is more important that we read the Bible; it is God's word. It is our Christian instruction manual, telling us the best way to live. Prayer also needs to be a priority, because it is the time when we actually talk to God.
I don't want to just know about Jesus, I want to have a personal relationship with Him. That means that I must spend more time with Him - reading the Bible and praying to Him.
Ideas:
- Make a chart recording your daily Bible reading and prayer.
- Set a special time each day to pray and read the Bible.
- Listen to an Audio Version of the Bible
- Use the Kid's Prayer Calendar
