Pattern For Family Altar

Your family devotions will be unique. Decide on a general pattern to follow and adjust as your children grow and your family changes. Some suggestions: 1.Read a portion of scripture; 2.Discuss what you have read; 3.Show children from the Bible the reasons for decisions made; 4.Have family members quote a memorized verse (if old enough); 5.Let each name something he is thankful for. By the time we finally felt we were doing a fairly good job at this, our children had grown up and were going out to raise their own families, but the "family altar" was a foundation they will always remember. "Children´s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers." Proverbs 17:6
