And for most of my life, I've lived in the depths of sin. When Paul says "Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the worst," it hits me. Hard.

 

So, being a new Christian with three children, my biggest challenge has been to really disciple them, and to reach them with Christ and the word of God. They're so enmeshed in the things of this world. Cell phones, TV, video games. And all my family is, too, which makes it that much harder because I'm with them so little compared with the rest of my family.

 

So trying to set aside time for Bible studies, much less actually getting them engaged and listening, it's difficult. It's exhausting. It feels impossible.

 

Any tips on how I can make learning the Bible and learning about God more fun and engaging for them?

They LOVE going to church. They LOVE Sunday School (well, except my oldest. She's a preteen and that's a whole different set of problems I'm not ready to address here).

 

I just want them to love the Lord the way they love church. Any ideas?
