Family Bible Readings: 56 Bible Stories To Teach Your Children

Teach a child to choose the right path, and when he is older, he will remain upon it.  We are to teach our children the right path.  Deuteronomy 11:18-19 indicates   “So commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these words of mine. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders.  Teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.”
As a parents or guardian, you are to plant the seed of God’s word in the lives of your children.  If you fail to teach them, the world will do it for you.  No matter how busy you are as a mother create time to teach your children God’s word.
