Beginning: Family Worship in Genesis
Joel R. Beeke
Christians are counter-cultural: our primary goal should not be to raise intelligent, successful, competent, and upright citizens, our primary concern ought to be for the good of our children’s souls - and so for God’s glory.
Teaching our children the Scriptures in a compelling, relevant, and holistic manner during daily family worship is one of the chief means we can achieve this. If you need help to do that - this is the series for you! It’s a comprehensive guide for the entire family and particularly children between the ages of 5-12.
Using a unique Review/Read/Reflect/Request format, family worship has never been so fulfilling.
