Why Kids Need a "Do" List

Ever said anything your kids considered shocking? If so, you may be in good company!

In the New Testament book of James, he writes shocking words addressing the issue Christians were fighting about. (Sadly, Christians fighting over theology isn't new!) Back then it was faith vs. works, or, put another way, "who vs. do."

As we teach our kids the importance of a life centered on the two Great Commandments, developing "do" skills is part of this. A right belief isn't enough -- which James addresses with a shocking statement! Character that doesn't show up with "do-ing" isn't real character.

We dive into making the First Great Commandment real and actionable in pursuit of raising kids ready to fully engage in God's grand story!
