In light of the recent outbreak of Covid-19 and the resulting school closures and cancellations many of us find ourselves disoriented as families. Our rhythms of life and work have been interrupted. Our kids are home and wondering what is next.
So we wanted to walk with parents and their kids as we learn how to establish new rhythms centered around God's Word and His ways. Below you will find a variety of resources to help you, as a family, talk about what God is doing in your life and stay grounded in Scripture.
We hope these bless and encourage you as you wait on the Lord in this season.
*For some tips on how to talk to your kids about the coronavirus in a way that is calm and points them to Jesus check out THIS ARTICLE.

Lent Reading Guide & Activity from the Jesus Storybook Bible

it can be challenging to help our kids understand the overarching story of the Bible. We get lost in all the individual stories and details and miss the big picture.
The Jesus Storybook Bible helps parents introduce their kids to the grand narrative of the Bible in a fun and engaging way, by showing how the whole story points to Jesus. And now, there is a Lenten reading guide and activity that you can do to read through it together in a way that is fun and interactive.
