3 Steps to starting Family Worship

This very simple and straightforward list from James Grant is very helpful and encouraging to me, because sometimes family worship can seen very daunting and involved.

  1. Plan to have family worship after an evening meal
  2. Read through a good book (like the Jesus Storybook Bible)
  3. Say the Lord’s prayer after reading the book

I’m planning to start doing family worship after Malachi’s 2nd birthday, which is next week. Can’t wait!

    That’s awesome. I’ve been really been working at making this a part of our family’s experience. I love your suggestion, keep it simple and make it part of the family meal. It will be cool to hear how it develops. I’ve been working at coming up with fun kid friendly worship and scripture based songs you might enjoy them. Check it out at holyoatmeal.com Great blog by the way.
