What is the Family Devotion Challenge?
The Family Devotion Challenge is the second phase of the Homefront Initiative. As we've affirmed with the Daily Formation Challenge, making Christ central to our lives through daily prayer and time in the Bible is essential. However, the Family Devotion Challenge also seeks to bring Christ into intentional family time. In these busy times, giving our families the tools to grow together in Christ is more important than ever. We encourage you to accept the challenge and commit to three months of weekly devotional time with your family, starting this March.
You're not alone if you need help figuring out how to begin! We've collected some excellent resources and have posted them here to help get your family started.
