The Word of God: Paul's Epistles, Week 4


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.

During this final unit on our study of the Word of God, we'll be looking at the different letters Paul wrote. Some  of these letters were to individuals and some of these letters were to churches, but all contain valuable information for believers!

If you were at the parenting conference in April, you were given what I thought was a wonderful piece of advice: buy a new Bible each year and as you study it that year, write in it. Mark things in it. Then save it so when your kids hit big milestones or when you are gone, they have this legacy handed down from you.

I love this idea! And, as a mom of children who have lost their father, I have seen first hand how special this is. So, that's what this week's blog is encouraging you to do. Buy one new Bible each year (each parent; could be your presents to each other for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, etc) and use it for that one year as your Bible study Bible. Mark important passages. Write prayers in it. Ask questions in it. Date things you mark and leave a legacy of studying God's word for your kids!

Here are some pictures from our Bibles for you to see:







Here are some links to Bibles that have a little more space for writing, journaling, drawing, or whatever the Lord leads you to do in your Bible (though a regular Bible works just as well!):
