Sarah Wells explains how the idea for The Family Bible Devotional began

One morning, I asked my husband what he thought about reading the Bible together with our kids. He agreed that it was a good idea, and I promptly panicked.

I had expected my husband to think this was too difficult or too challenging of an undertaking. There were so many places I had stumbled in Scripture, and I worried about having the right answers for my kids. I worried about strong-arming them into reading the Bible and them resenting it. I worried that what I had found life changing they would find boring.

Despite my insecurities, we gave it a go.

And coming around the Bible turned out to be good. My children are curious. They have surprising perspectives and ideas I wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. Not only did we get to know the Bible and God better, we got to know each other better too.

It’s my prayer that families will find entry into the story of our faith and come out the other side closer to God and closer to each other.
