The Bible Read-A-Thon I mentioned in the last post went great! We had about 1/3 of the kids participate, including some who live in the "really need it" category. Many of our kids did the assigned readings without promptings from parents.
We are having an awards ceremony this Sunday. The clincher is going to be the gift bags we give to each child. I plan on pointing out that while these bags of candy and toys are cool, the real prize is the peace, joy, and wisdom God gives us when we read the Bible.
If you have any other ideas for getting the kids excited about daily devotions, make sure an post a comment.
