In this episode, we review Matt Chandler and Adam Griffin’s book Family Discipleship: Leading Your Home Through Time, Moments, & Milestones. We highly recommend this resource for parents who are wanting to be intentional about raising their family to follow Christ. We found the book to be a very practical guide on how to use the normal routines of life for passing on our faith in Jesus.
We cover how this book is:
- ENCOURAGING
- UNDERSTANDABLE
- INCREDIBLY PRACTICAL
The book is broken into simple chapters that suggest we organize a discipleship plan around:
- MODELING. We have to start with our own relationship and response to Christ.
- TIME: Using the natural rhythms of life to read God’s Word, pray, and serve with our families
- MOMENTS: Watching and being ready for those teachable moments where we can share truth about God.
- MILESTONES: Using those milestones and markers of life such as birthdays, holidays, and graduations to offer faith challenges.
We encourage you to check out this book and begin making a tangible discipleship plan for your family. You can also check out this recent sermon Mark shared at Calvary Chapel Church where he talks more about some of these concepts. We also invite you to connect with us.
