A God Place
God Lives in Your Home.
What does this mean?
I broke this discussion down in to two parts because this chapter is kind of in depth. Wolgemuth begins this chapter saying that Christian Homes should have a certain smell. That you should smell God when you enter a Christian home. And when you leave that smell should follow. Similar to the incense burnt as a part of a Roman Catholic worship service.
He states that filling a house with a simple aromatic God-sense happens by following simple steps.
1. Going to church is not an option.
Hebrews 10: 24-25 (NLT) states : Think of ways to encourage one another to outbursts of love and good deeds. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage and warn each other."
- Is going to church an option in your home?
In another section Wolgemuth writes about how important it is to get a bible in your childs hand at an early age. He says that it is imperative that you give them the word - one of their very own and then read to them from it. How else can you teach them that "Thy word is a lamp unto my path and and a light unto my feet"
- Have you made it a priority to teach your children to rely on the Word of God as their guidebook?
- Have you given them their own Bible?
- Is Scripture Memory a priority in your home? - How else are they going to be able to "Hide his Word in their heart that they may not sin against it?"
Next week we'll discuss the remainded of Chapter 2
We'd love to hear about what you thought about the ABC Bible Verses. I know my children will start making our own ABC Book soon!
