We grandmas (grandpas/parents) know God has clearly asked us to hand down the faith. This is our God-given job and great joy. (See Psalm 78:4, 6, 7)
If we could receive anything as a gift this year, at the top of our list would absolutely be to have the ones we love make the choice to know, love and walk with God. Well, we can not make the ones we love choose to do this, but we also do not have to leave it to chance for them to know, love and walk with God.
Handing faith to those we love is far, far too important for us to not be focused and purposeful about it, so I'm very happy to let you know about a tool you could use which will engage those you love in reading the Bible and provide opportunities for you all to talk about what you read - since you will be reading the same verses each day which they read and you all will be watching for God's Great Deeds and remembering what He does.
Generations Quest is designed to work with any age of grandchild/child in any location - whether they live near or far. The idea is for you and they - and their parents, too if they are willing - to each read the same few verses and questions about the verses each day. Connect in person, over the phone or on-line a few times a month to talk about what you are reading and to do a activities for preschool age children through college age (also included in the resource) to help the children you love understand what they are reading. It also reminds you all to watch for God's Great Deeds.
Generations Quest is easy to use and is a tool which will connect and engage the generations in handing down the faith and learning about God's Word together. The cost is $10 a year and if grandparents purchase it, they are welcome to share it with all of their adult children and grandchildren! Talk about an extremely affordable resource - it is less expensive than two Happy Meals and will provide you with a year of resources and tools to hand down the faith!
You are able to try a month for free at this link and will be able to learn the complete details about Generations Quest at this link. Try it for free and get it for your family - the best family Christmas gift ever for you . . . and for them as you take the generations on a quest together to know, love and follow God!
