Training your children…

Proverbs 22:6

“Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.”

I ordered some children’s book recently that I thought I would share.  What I liked about them is that they are books that teach your child about God and his righteousness, sin, holiness, etc.  They are story books written to point your child to Christ.  Also, they are written by a great Christian author, R.C. Sproul.  I also bought some story/picture coloring books.  They are geared towards younger aged children, so I’m hoping my kids enjoy them.  I don’t have too many more details on them since I’m still waiting for them to arrive in the mail.  So here is the list:

1) The Donkey who carried a King by Sproul

2) The Priest with Dirty Clothes by Sproul

3) The Prince’s Poison Cup by Sproul

4) God is Everywhere by MacKenzie (coloring book)

5) God knows Everything by MacKenzie (coloring book)

We’ve also been using “the Jesus Storybook Bible” at devotions with the boys.  It puts the Bible into stories for younger children to understand a bit better.  The boys love it and always have questions after we are done reading.  The also like looking at the pictures.  Every story points to Christ.  It has been neat to see my boys hearts and minds grow as they learn about Christ and who he is and what he has done for us.
