Faith Formation in the Family

Rev. Andrew Brashier

Therefore, start small and fail small. Families, simply start with the daily office lectionary readings from the prayer book. Add the Psalter and then the shorter Family offices provided in the ... prayer books. During the hectic days of running kids from one event to the next mid-week, sing hymns in the car ..., pray and teach the Lord’s Prayer, share something you read from the Holy Scriptures. Above all else, do not let a “missed day” depress your efforts, instead, circumvent Satan by making every ordinary moment a moment of prayer, teaching, and faith-passing.
