Jacket Description/Back:
The remedy to ho-hum, not-again, "Do we have to?" family devotions
Regular family devotions are important. Unfortunately, they're often . . . boring. But what if devotions looked less like sitting still and listening to someone read and more like, say, electrocuting a pickle? Or converting a leaf blower into a toilet paper launcher? Or lighting toothpaste on fire?
These hands-on, kinda dangerous, totally unforgettable object lessons (along with nearly fifty others) are not only more fun than other family devotions--they actually deliver the spiritual impact you desire for your kids. So put away the flannelgraph, get out the safety goggles, and start bringing the truths of Scripture to vivid life in your household. Just remember to change out of your Sunday clothes first.
"Practical, hands-on, engaging, and easy-to-use family devotions. This is a must-have for a parent's devotional library!"-- Danny Huerta, MSW, LCSW, vice president of parenting and youth at Focus on the Family and family therapist
"Get ready to zap, laugh, explore, explode, build, slime, slide, and think new thoughts with those kids you love so much."-- Jay Payleitner, national speaker and bestselling author of 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad and What If God Wrote Your Bucket List?
"This book is fabulous! The devotions are memorable, unique, fun for all ages, engaging, and not complicated. You and your children are going to learn so much!"-- Kathy Koch, PhD, founder and president of Celebrate Kids, Inc. and author of 8 Great Smarts and Start with the Heart

As parents hoping to raise godly children, we may understand the importance of regular family devotions. However, we may find it difficult to get our kids (or even ourselves) fully engaged. But what if devotions looked less like sitting in the living room listening to someone read and trying to pry answers out of reluctant kids and more like, say, electrocuting a pickle? Or converting a leaf blower into a toilet paper launcher? Or lighting toothpaste on fire?
These hands-on, kinda dangerous, totally unforgettable object lessons (along with nearly fifty others) are not only more fun than other family devotions--they actually deliver the spiritual impact you desire for your kids. They'll even get dads and any too-cool-for-this-stuff teens jazzed about a weekly family devotional time.
So put away the flannelgraph, get out the safety goggles, and start bringing the truths of Scripture to vivid life in your household. Just remember to change out of your Sunday clothes first.
