Christ in the Commandments
Christ in the Commandments is a 30-lesson family devotional that helps your children understand how the Ten Commandments serve both as a mirror of our own sinfulness and a window into the person of Christ. Focusing on Exodus 20:1-21, the study unearths how the Commandments apply to every-day life. Most importantly, the study focuses on how the commandments point to the person and character of Christ.
There are a few ways you could use this family devotional.
You could spend 30 days in a row, working through one lesson each day. This will immerse your children in the passage.
You could spend 30 weeks doing one lesson each week. You might choose to do this over the duration of one school year.
Or perhaps you can do both approaches. Spend 30 days going through this study to acquaint your family with the text, then use the Bible study weekly throughout the year to study this Scripture at a slower pace and reinforce the lessons that were already covered once.
What Others are Saying About Christ in the Commandments
"All I can say is WOW!…We take turns reading the passages, the study guide, and looking at each other in amazement as Addie answers questions in ways that we would never have imagined."
From Suzette at The Joy of Homemaking
"This is such a wonderful way to help plant a desire for worship of the Lord in the hearts of our children…If you’ve had questions about how to effectively teach the importance of the Ten Commandments to your family without de-emphasizing God’s new covenant of grace, this study might be just what you are seeking!"
From Allison at Schumm Explosion
"I absolutely love how engaging it is for the whole family. It keeps the attention of a six and three year old, so I can only imagine how great it would be with older kids."
