Bible Gateway for the Family

We are so excited The Joyful Stepmom has been added to the Bible Gateway Blogger Grid! We have joined the ranks of writers like Sally Clarkson, Bible Love Notes, and The M.O.M. Initiative. It's a thrill to join the Blogger Grid with other writers professing faith through the written word. 

Throughout the year, we will highlight a few features of Bible Gateway that can enhance our study and quiet time. 

One thing I really struggled with as a parent with a child who is only home on weekends is making sure he is learning about the Lord. A child who goes between homes does not experience the consistency of attending church regularly, doing daily family devotions and all the other faith building exercises many of us rely on. 

When a child is home, we need to pour into them everything we can. We need to grab their attention, at their level. We need to use the limited amount of time we have to our advantage. 

Bible Gateway has several family devotionals available. I really like the Adventure Bible devotional. It gives a short devotional moment, highlights a verse and time in the Bible. It's great to read at bedtime or around the dinner table. Check it out!
