Jesus Storybook Bible Interactive Reading Plan

1 Jesus Storybook Bible Interactive Reading Plan The Commons Kids is excited to partner with parents and has compiled this Jesus Storybook Bible Interactive Reading Plan for parents to utilize at home with their kids. Psalm 127:3-6 states Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate. We believe that parents have been given a charge to lead their children in the ways of the Lord and we want parents to be fully aware of and equipped in their role in discipleship with their children.
