The Story Behind My Kid's Devotional--Fingerprint Devotions

Send us Fan MailToday, the world’s influence on our children begins so much earlier than most of us experienced in our lives. We live in a society where even young children are bombarded daily with media advertisements on TV, social media, magazines, etc. that portray success as external beauty, popularity, sexiness, etc. The earlier we begin in a child’s life to build that foundation of Truth, the earlier they will be equipped to stand against a ungodly world view that permeates our current culture. By the time children reach their tween and teen years, many of these harmful lies about who they are, their value as a person and their purpose in life has already caused much harm psychological, emotionally and physically.Fingerprint Devotions: 40 Devotions To Help You Realize You Are a Kid Uniquely Created by God for a Purpose,” helps kids understand they were created by God who has a purpose and plan for their life. It pairs fun scientific facts about the uniqueness of each person’s fingerprints with Scripture, a short devotional, a prayer and a question to journal or an activity to do. It has four sections with topics about each person’s creation and uniqueness, their identity in Christ, accepting Jesus, developing the fruit of the Spirit in their lives, and discovering the gifts and talents that God has given them  to serve others and live a purposeful life.My Goals for This Devotional 1. Help children know that God created them, choose them, loves them and has a purpose for their lives. 2. Help children be grounded in the truth of who they are in God to withstand our current culture of “wokeness” and lies about who they are. Just as Satan sought to destroy the generation of children at Moses birth and later at Jesus’ birth, he still is trying to destroy our generation of children with his lies. 3. That this devotional will reach not only children in Christian homes, but children who are not being raised in a Christian setting or attend church. I’m excited about my partnership with 7Homes—a NC-based Christian foster and adoption agency. I plan to donate copies of my devotional for them to put in their “care bags” they give to children who have to be taken out of their homes (sometimes suddenly) and placed in foster care. These children need to know that God loves them and that they are important and have a purpose for their lives. My heart is that this book would show them how much God loves and cares for them. 7Homes will also give copies of the devotional as Christmas gifts to some of their children in this age range.I’m also asking those who purchase a book for their own child or grandchild to purchase an extra paperback copy for $11.99, or if you don’t have children this age, buy one to donate to 7Homes. You can have the book sent directly to their office at: Seven Homes, 4270 Piedmont Parkway Suite 109, Greensboro, NC 27410. Link to book on Amazon.    Check out the Questions for Kids picture book series, perfect for young readers ages 5-10! Book 3 in the Questions for Kids picture book series is now available!
