Building Faith 2024: A YEAR OF INTENTIONALITY
This year, we focus on simple intentionality in raising little ones, with Micah 6:8 as our guide.
Like Micah’s original audience, we are surrounded and bombarded with a complex culture, and it’s often difficult to focus our attention on what is most important as we disciple our children.
Micah 6:8 (King James Version)
He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
Each month, we’ll cut through the noise and take a look at one way we can be intentional in our choices. Sometimes the concept will relate more directly to young children, and sometimes it will be focused on our own personal work. Positive discipling in the way of Jesus comes from within, and sometimes we need to be intentional about our own habits and let them ripple out to our children. Our hope is that these twelve practices are not one more thing on the “should” list, but rather can help parents and caregivers take a breath and put that should list in its rightful place.
