This year in FamilyQuest we'll be studying the word of God. We'll learn how it came to be, study some of the books of the Bible, and even study some of the bigger concepts found in the Bible.
In this unit we will be looking at the portion of scripture we've come to know as The Beattitudes. It's part of a larger portion of scripture known as The Sermon on the Mount. We'll take some time to look at each of the beattitudes, or blessings, and what they really mean for us as we live out our lives here on earth.
How's that memory verse coming along? In case you need a reminder:
"So listen to me, children! Blessed are those who obey me. Listen to instruction and be wise. Don't ignore it." Proverbs 8:32-33
Need some ideas on how to learn this as a family? Here are a few that some of our FamilyQuest writing team have used at times:
-Write out the verse on a piece of paper and cut it into a puzzle. Once a day, put this puzzle together until your whole family can say the verse.
-Sit in a circle as a family and each person says one word of the verse until you have said the whole verse.
-Create some motions for the verse that will make it easier for each of you to remember the words.
-Put the verse to music!
-Each morning as you eat breakfast say the verse together three times.
-Say it out loud together on your way to school and on your way home from school.
