Activities to help nurture faith.

This month, take the time to reflect with your family on what it means to be a member of God’s Kingdom family. Write out individual lists (younger children will, of course, need help from their parents) of what obligations and privileges this citizenship confers on us. Read a book or watch a film about royalty in this world, and use Scripture to discuss how God’s Kingdom is both similar and different from earthly kingdoms. A role-play of a Biblically-based “court session” or decorating your house with Kingdom symbols, may help in sparking fuller understanding of the “Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever” (Matthew 6:13).
See Psalms 45 and 84, and C.S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity, 50th Anniversary ed. (London: HarperCollinsPublishers, 2002) pp. 82-87.)
