The week’s article from the Gospel Coalition challenges families to make God’s Word a part of their daily life. Each family establishes their own culture, a way of living according to a set of values or beliefs. These beliefs can significantly impact the identity of an individual. Identity is more than a set of behaviors, but is who you are. As a believer, at our core, we should be united to Christ and his Word. This connection goes beyond habitual behavior. While you can’t save your children, integrating family worship into your daily routine invites the Holy Spirit to dwell in your home.
Family worship will not just happen. It requires intentionality. The adults need to cultivate a culture of worship. Children are created in such a way that they pick up on the values of their families. Based on your lifestyle, what would your children say you value or believe?
This article provides seven tips to help you begin creating a culture of family worship in your home. Busy schedules and emotionally rough days can make it difficult to worship together. Hold fast to the truth that God’s Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:11). Whether your family worship is 10 minutes or 30, the intentionality to invite your children to worship the one true God will be worth it.
