Today's Reading

Gather the family around the table

Below is today's reading from each of our three volumes — open any one to read it together. The same day, for families everywhere.

I Volume 1

Knowing God

Month 8 · Talking with God — The Praying Family

Samuel Learns to Hear God's Voice

It was nighttime in the tabernacle. A young boy named Samuel was lying down to sleep. Then he heard his name: "Samuel!" He ran to old Eli, the priest, but Eli hadn't called him. This happened three times.

II Volume 2

Following Jesus

Month 8 · The Heart of Jesus

Zacchaeus, Come Down From the Tree

Zacchaeus was a man nobody liked. He was a chief tax collector, and he had grown rich by cheating his own neighbors. He was also short, and the crowd was happy to block his view.

III Volume 3

Ready to Stand & Be Sent

Month 8 · Right & Wrong

The Greatest Commandments

A clever teacher of the law tried to trap Jesus with a hard question. Out of all the hundreds of rules in the Old Testament, which one is the greatest? It sounds like a quiz, but it was really a test.

How to use it

  1. Gather after a meal — about 10–15 minutes.
  2. Read the day together; each age has its own prompt.
  3. Go in order at your own pace — you're never behind.
