Adults need to learn it, too!<br /><br />I have been using Professor Grant Horner's Bible Reading Program for nearly a year. I read 5 chapters per day, rather than 10, but I follow his plan (so it takes me two days to do a days' reading according to the program). I can't tell you how much of a blessing it has been to see the connection between Acts and Psalms, or between Hebrews and Leviticus. I have enjoyed my Bible reading so much more since I started it. It helps me to see that there is ONE plan that God is working out perfectly. <br /><br />Blessings to you!Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05241205993383739880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5224568723728253433.post-9719557617599210772010-06-07T16:20:12.009-04:002010-06-07T16:20:12.009-04:00Hi Janet,

I gave the workshop again this year, but my introduction was different. I talked about the statistics, which you mentioned. According to the Barna Research Group, four out of five children who have grown up in the church do not attend as adults. After talking about this, I encouraged parents to teach the big picture in the Bible to their children.Heather Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13320490195472329437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5224568723728253433.post-8852385005515258462009-05-01T04:03:00.000-04:002009-05-01T04:03:00.000-04:00I have been with our church long enough now that I...I have been with our church long enough now that I have seen young adults walk/run away from church once they are away from home (school or marriage). My conclusions include looking toward the parents for more than whether they brought the kids to church - do the parents live out the faith at home? There is usually a connection.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure I have seen the book in our church library - I will have to look a little more closely at it now that there is a recommendation.Kim from Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102205952990014037noreply@blogger.com
