I have the same outlook.<br />I have been homeschooling 13 years and the only thing that has remained constant through the years is this precious time with my children. Math programs and teaching philosophies come and go, but putting the Lord first is ALWAYS the right thing to do. The day never feels right without our prayer/bible time.<br /><br />It is especially important to our family, since my husband is not a believer. Yet the Lord has blessed these precious times for me and my children so abundantly.

We were introduced to the idea of family worship last year and have been working very hard to make it a practice in our home every evening. My husband gets his guitar out and we sing together. We let our 2 and 4 year old read after us as we read God's Word. We are working through a catechism with them. My husband and I grew up in Christian homes but not with such direct and intense teaching. We have really seen the importance of being purposeful in our home and the need to foster an atmosphere that seeks Christ. We are examples to our children of what worshipful living looks like. Thank you for your witness. I enjoy your blog very much!Lindsey @ Road to 31http://www.roadto31.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-75863620622908912472012-10-03T01:19:31.692-05:002012-10-03T01:19:31.692-05:00Great post!Great post!mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16347912887136781641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-3761706639840605652012-10-03T00:29:38.503-05:002012-10-03T00:29:38.503-05:00I love your blog.

Some days, family devotion time is all we can get to as part of our "school day" (things can go a little haywire with a 4yo, a 2.5yo, and a 10mo and then other household activities and chores to boot :-D) But I still feel as if the main thing has been the main thing when we have devotions together. And I can let all the "rest" (i.e. art time, etc.) go. Our devotions are also lighthearted (but still reverent). We sing our memory verses, even march around to the beat sometimes. It is amazing what even our 2 year old can retain when it's put to a beat! Anyway, thanks for this encouraging post. It is comforting to know that even after a decade and a half your family still gathers together around God's Word to start your day. It encourages me that we too can persevere and stay the course with our little ones. Thank you for being a good Titus example for me! :-DAdrienne Isaacshttp://www.facebook.com/theteachermomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-88888465655777872282012-10-02T16:26:41.012-05:002012-10-02T16:26:41.012-05:00I like your phrase, "reverence, worship, rele...I like your phrase, "reverence, worship, relevance."<br /><br />Once in a while in home school I would teach my children the words of one of my favorite old hymns - a hymn that might be sung in church even if infrequently - among the praise choruses. We'd learn the words "by heart" of all four verses over some weeks. When the hymn would come up, in church (perhaps months later) I'd like to think it was to them as it was to me - an old familiar friend. <br />Karen A.

I read from a toddler's devotional and she loves it! We do scripture memory, but not every day as of yet. I am amazed at how much a 3 year old can retain. After devotions, we ask her if she has any special prayer requests and then we pray together. Lately she has been asking if she can say the prayer out loud. It's really sweet. Awesome post once again.

I guess just simplify it right? Sometimes I think it's a lot easier if you have more than one child so that the youngers learn from the olders and it's more of a group effort (more voices other than your own). Praying for God to open my womb and bless my family.Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10647983444507212685noreply@blogger.com
