The Daily Devotional

The purpose of our daily devotional is to focus on unifying our family around the day’s demands of school, activities, goals, values, needs, and more. It helps to strengthen our family spiritually and emotionally before the pressures of the day begin. As an integral part of our homeschool, it is also the best time to teach our children the subjects and values that go beyond the usual “school” curriculum. For example, some of the topics we might discuss include what it means to be resilient or emotionally flexible, why hard work is so important, how to make wise choices in friendships and dating, or to how to address gaps in our knowledge of scripture or doctrine.
