4. Use Faithful Fridays to build a faith legacy.
Next, realize that Faithful Fridays don’t just impart Bible knowledge. Family devotions also create lasting memories. By adding fun, creativity, and shared experiences, parents help children associate faith with joy.
Devotions might include a family prayer jar or a creative visual representation of a Bible account. Those experiences become cherished memories that children carry into adulthood. In fact, they might re-create similar faith traditions with their own kids someday!
5. Suggest resources for family devotions.
Families can incorporate weekly devotional time into other traditions, such as Pizza Night. Faithful Fridays turn a routine day into a sacred time for bonding and spiritual growth.
To make that possible, suggest appropriate resources. Equip parents for Faithful Fridays by recommending easy-to-follow materials. Provide resources available through your denomination or its publishing arm. Or browse these websites for kid-friendly devotional materials:
