With the New Year fast approaching, I’d love to encourage you to share the importance of daily devotions with your children. Spending quality time with God each day is not just good for you, as parents, but it is also an important habit for the kids to start as well. My daughter is turning 8 this week and she loves reading her Bible. I was excited to see a new Bible available for Tween girls: Faithgirlz Bible.

Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
