Danielle will help you do that with her brief, fun, and relevant family devotions. They'll work with boys and girls of many ages and you don't have to be theologian to understand what she wants you to help your children discover and apply. Your children will want to listen to the beginning of each devotional (they're funny and so real!) and they'll stay for the application. You'll be their hero for teaching them Truth and answering questions they may have. You'll influence their hearts and minds. You'll all laugh, be engaged, and be refreshed!" ~ Dr. Kathy Koch (Founder and President of Celebrate Kids, Inc., and author of Five to Thrive, Start with the Heart, 8 Great Smarts, and Screens and Teens. Featured expert in Kirk Cameron's movie, "Connect". ) ◆ "Hands down this is the devotional book my kids beg me to read at meals! Once all giggles at the table before I even started to read. I found out they had been reading ahead on their own because they love the stories so much! A fantastic resource to bring Biblical principles to the table in a way that engages all ages." ~ Annette Goodwin, Director of child centred divorce services, By Peaceful Waters. Masters Degree in social work. Mom of 6! ◆ "I have always believed that God created children to love fun! We have to get on their level. When we intentionally have fun with our kids it builds relationship, and good relationships open the door for us to be able to have faith conversations. This book does just that! Fun and faith, laughing and learning, funny and families! Get your hands on this book, sit down for family dinner, build your faith together and get ready for the giggles!! Our families love this book" ~ Beth Miller - Children's and Family Pastor at Life Church Buffalo, Mom of 2
