5.0 out of 5 stars
a practical guide to discussion with your family,
By
This review is from: The One Year Book of Josh McDowell's Family Devotions: A Daily Devotional for Passing Biblical Values to the Next Generation (Paperback)
The tempo of this devotional is great. It is short enough to keep my teenage son engaged throughout our after-dinner devotions, but not so short that it becomes a pointless reading of words, primarily because of one key feature that I have found in (sadly) few (read: no) other family devotional: The "To Discuss" questions.
I learned recently that my son didn't like our family dinners because they weren't meaningful for him. I didn't understand that until I finally learned that teens don't see questions like "how was school" and "how was your day" to be meaningful questions, even though I thought so since I was interested in his life. No, they want to discuss issues. This devotional sets those discussions up for you by including discussion questions at the end of each day's devotion that are based on the Bible reading for the day and on the story (or case) for that day. Without the discussion, the devotional probably takes no more than 5 minutes, but my family has sat for up to a half hour after dinner discussing the lessons in this devotional. And for those who aren't prayer warriors, the prayer after discussion is very short. Have a longer one if you want, but I don't usually. All in all, an exceptional devotional for talking to your family!

Great Application!,

This review is from: The One Year Book of Josh McDowell's Family Devotions: A Daily Devotional for Passing Biblical Values to the Next Generation (Paperback)
I really like this devotional.The application is good for everyday life of kids in school. I would recommend it for older elementary and middle school. Some of them are a little too old for 1st and 2nd grade children.

Nice Family Devotional,

This review is from: The One Year Book of Josh McDowell's Family Devotions: A Daily Devotional for Passing Biblical Values to the Next Generation (Paperback)
These are light topic devotionals for the family. It is not a devotional if you're geared to more deep issues that your children deal with. But in all, a good devotional.
