This morning during my coffee with the King I read this verse in Deuteronomy (Deut. 6:7) You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. It reminded me that it is MY job to teach my children the Word of God and His laws. It is not the church’s responsibility. Church is a tool I can use to help my kids and myself learn more but it is ultimately up to me. How often have we thought that if we send our kids to church, they will learn what they need, and be fine but if we aren’t living a life for Christ outside of church, what good is it? Lord, help me to teach my children how to walk with you.

Sunday School Scrapbooks
7 NovI have recently started doing something a little different in my 6th grade girls Sunday School class. We are scrapbooking our lessons! I don’t know why I never thought of it before because it is something I have done with my own children for years as part of our homeschool not to mention the fact that I LOVE to scrapbook. It took my friend Lisa H. to recommend it.
So far, the girls have made their title pages and a review page of the lessons we did last month. At the end of the Sunday School year, they will have a nice record of all of the things they have learned in Sunday School and City Lights. They are having a lot of fun using their creativity to make pages that will remind them of important lessons from their 6th grade Sunday School class with Mrs. Christie.
Here are some pictures I took today while the girls were working on their scrapbooks.
