Lessons from Good and Bad Choices in the Bible, Volume 1: The Book of Genesis
Volume 1: Genesis
New Living Translation | 6 × 9 inches | 328 pages
A fifty-chapter family devotional that walks through every chapter of Genesis, one good or bad choice at a time. Families will explore the decisions made by people like Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Jacob, Joseph, and many others, discovering how their choices affected their lives and what we can learn from them today. It is also written for anyone who wants to study the good and bad choices in Genesis on their own.
Each chapter is designed to take about 15 minutes, making it easy to build Bible study into real family life. Every chapter follows the same rhythm, so families always know what comes next:
Before You Read: a short setup so everyone knows where the story is
Read Together: the chapter of Genesis to read as a family
Family Memory Verse: one verse to learn together
The Good Choice and The Bad Choice: what they did, and how it affected their lives
What Can We Learn From It?
Where Is Jesus Here?: because every story in the Old Testament points ahead to Him
Prayer: a prayer to pray together
Talk About It: Family Talk for the children, Dig Deeper for teens and adults, and Try It Together, an optional hands-on activity
Reflection Journal: a page for the parent to think more deeply and write a personal response
My Page: a page where your child can write or draw what they learned
Created for parents, grandparents, children, and teens, this devotional helps families do more than read Bible stories. It encourages them to talk about choices, consequences, faith, obedience, forgiveness, and the character of God while learning how Scripture applies to everyday life.
Then keep the lesson going with the matching Genesis Family Activity Book, featuring puzzles and activities built around the same people, events, and Scripture your family just studied.
Read together. Talk together. Pray together. Grow together.
