Once our children begin school, time with them is greatly decreased and other people begin to influence their lives. It is one of the most crucial times for us to be intentional in discipling our children. But how do we do it? And when can we do it with our busy schedules?We disciple our children by reading the Bible, discussing how to apply it to our lives and then praying together for God to continue to make us more like Him. Praying with Your Kids Before School will guide you to do just that each day of the school year. You don't have to start in August, you just have to start. Remember, prayer changes us. Prayer brings us closer to God and each other by growing in our understanding of scripture and asking Him to help us to apply it to our lives. The sooner we bring this discipline into our homes, the sooner God can guide us how to disciple our children in the way they should go.Each week has a theme to explore in the Bible that can be prayerfully applied to you and your child's lives. Every verse is also paraphrased into an easier understanding for younger children, with a shorter prayer for them to recite, so that the book can be used on both older and younger children. At the end of each chapter there will be a blank page where you can write out a personal prayer related to the topic for your child. This book becomes not only a guide on how to disciple your child, but a precious keepsake of how you've prayed for them and how God answered your prayers for your child throughout the year.This one discipline, that can renew our minds, change our attitudes and impact our behaviors and decisions. If we are faithful to spend these few minutes with God in prayer, we can be transformed together to become stronger and to become more of who God wants us to be. One verse, one prayer just might change the trajectory of their lives!
