Jonathan has continued to sleep with his Child Training Bible. He likes to read it before he goes to sleep. He has been making a song out of the list of the books. He also said he has read Haggai, Malachi, Romans, Acts, and who knows what else. Oh, that's reading in his head, not with his mouth by the way.
Is he really reading? Honestly, I'm not sure. But, here's the point. He's learning to respect and treasure the Word of God. He's learning that time in the Word is important. He's learning that the words in the Bible are from God and lead him to a deeper relationship with God.
It's just part of child training. The life-long process of discipleship.
Last week I said I needed a sign. I decided to make it and share with you:

Of course! Isn’t God good 🙂

You rock. Thank you for the love 🙂
One of the most productive ways for me to teach my children about what an awesome God we serve is by His creation. We are blessed to have animals! Thanks for sharing your heart!
Great idea!
And pinned it! Thanks!
Thank you!
Okay, I’m done wondering and reading about the child training bible. I am buying one. I have heard way too much good about it. Great post. Is this your front door?
Kelli, it has been very helpful here and you won’t be sorry for buying the cards to make one. That is not my front door. Found it on flickr.
pinned it to my childrearing board too
Thanks Kelli!
