Because families today are stretched and pulled in so many different directions, they often find it hard to dedicate time to faith conversations at home. They pray at the table and read Bible stories from time to time, but scheduling a regular family devotional time seems nearly impossible. Instead of attempting to create extra space in your schedule for faith-filled activities, begin to integrate the Word of God into your regular existing routine. "Drive it Home" contains 10 weeks of devotionals that provide the opportunity for your family to engage in faith-filled spiritual pit stops at regular intervals throughout the day: during your morning car ride, while kids are at lunch, in the evening before bed, at the dinner table during prayer, and during weekly family fun dates. With a regular infusion of God's truth throughout the day, you and your kids can more effectively battle temptation and live for Christ.
