Description
A Jesus Easter is the latest family devotional by author Barbara Reaoch and it’s one that my family particularly enjoys! The book is divided into readings for families to go through in the thirty days leading up to Easter. Each devotional is broken up into the following three sections: Explore, Explain, Engage, and Enter In. The Explore section includes Bible verses to look up and read as well as a few simple questions about the verses. The Explain section contains brief devotional content and each devotion concludes by pointing to Jesus’ death and resurrection. The Engage section includes simple questions for parents to ask their children about the Bible verses and devotional content. Each devotion concludes with the Enter In section which contains a brief prayer prompt.
My husband and I generally read children’s Bibles with our girls who are three and six but we especially enjoyed going through the content of A Jesus Easter with them because it had us opening up the actual Bible and reading from it. We love our children’s Bibles but recognize that they are paraphrases of Scripture so it was nice to do something different for our family worship time and it was neat to see the girls engage with it.
