Child Training Bible

I received my Child Training Bible materials last week.  If you haven't heard of the Child Training Bible is a wonderful tool to help children and parents walk in the ways of the Lord.  Please check out Mindy's site for more details about this tool.

I finished putting my CTB together today while on vacation.  I chose the Zondervan NIV large print pew Bible.  The words are nice and big, so the kids can easily read it.  It was so wonderful just reading through the scriptures for each topic as I tabbed and highlighted the verses.  I then found some of my favorites that weren't on the list and tabbed and highlighted them accordingly.

After I finished I was able to use the CTB for my own Bible study time.  It was fantastic!  It was refreshing to only have the Word in front of me and not a bunch of notes and comments.  Those things are certainly useful but at this time in my walk, the pure Word is speaking to me in amazing ways and I am loving it! I am so looking forward to continuing to use this tool for our whole family's growth.

My biggest concern now is that every 5 mins I will be having a "Bible moment" with my kids because there is just so much there that we need to work on!  I think I need to pray for wisdom on that front ;) Perhaps focus on an issue a week for a while.  We'll see how God leads that.

If you don't have your CTB yet, seriously consider this amazing tool.  Not saying this because I have too, only because I am just so in love with it!  Thanks to Mindy for sharing her family's tool with the world.  We so greatly appreciate it!
