Act
Read the story of Paul and Silas’ miraculous rescue from prison in Acts 16:16-40 or from a children’s Bible storybook, then act out the story either live or with toys. Remind your kids that we can ALWAYS respond to the Lord in praise no matter our circumstances.
Remember
Featured
Using an online Bible resource, print out a list of “fear not” verses. Cut them into strips, fold them and place them in a special jar or bowl in a prominent place in your home. Select one every day and read it as a family.
Read
Read a missionary story or biography together. Note how the missionary sacrificed for Jesus, how the Lord was with them always, and how their lives blessed the world.
Research
Featured
Ask your kids to research a Christian “hero of the faith” and share with your family how the hero trusted God’s plan, even under persecution. (William Tyndale, Jane Grey or Tertullian are great examples!)
