Book Review ~ Whit’s End Mealtime Devotions

I really love Tyndale’s newest resource for families featuring Adventures in Odyssey. Whit’s End Mealtime Devotions by John Avery Whittaker (with help from Crystal Bowman and Tricia Goyer) is packed with “90 Faith-Building Ideas Your Kids will Eat Up!” Each devotion provides a Mealtime Prayer prompt, an “Appetizer” to break the ice and get everyone talking, a “Main Course” featuring a Bible lesson with related questions, “Table Talk” (more discussion questions), and “Vitamins and Minerals” or important verses to remember.

God’s Little Angel Shine Your Light Devotional by Sheila Walsh

Teaching our Littles to shine their lights is a daily practice. I love Sheila Walsh’s Shine Your Light Devotional for this very reason. Though everything of Sheila’s that I have read has been a treasure, this one in particular has to be my favorite. With memory verses, new words to learn, prayer prompts, and activities and ideas that go along with the lessons, this addition to the God’s Little Angel series is sure to have your little angel letting her light shine.

A Rabbi Looks at the Last Days by Jonathan Bernis

How can we, as Christians, help usher in these final days? What is our role, or more importantly, what is Israel’s role? If you want to know, the Bible has the answers. In “A Rabbi Looks at the Last Days” Bernis offers guidance through the scriptures as he takes you on a journey of discovery and reminds you of where our Savior truly came from.

Heaven is for Real Lesson 5 ~ Everyone is Happy in Heaven

This week in Heaven Is for Real for Kids: 13 Sunday School Lessons for Ages 4-8 , we discovered that “Everyone is Happy in Heaven”.
