Christian parents know the importance of passing the gospel story on to their children, yet we live in a busy world filled with distractions. This easy-to-use family devotional, in just ten minutes a day, five days a week, empowers parents to pass on the most valuable treasure the world has ever known. Each day focuses on highlighting the gospel of grace through the stories of the Old Testament. The gospel is deep enough to keep the oldest and wisest parents learning and growing all their lives, yet simple enough to transform the heart of the first grader who has just begun to read. Long Story Short is suitable for children from preschool through high school.

Long Story Short

This is hands down the best family devotion resource that I have come across. I have looked at a fair few over the years. If you are looking for a resource that requires no physical preparation, can be done in less than 10 minutes and is accessible to a 4 year old, yet beneficial to their parents – truth with out the superficial fluff. Sweet gospel truth, pointing to Jesus from OT (there is a NT companion). With 78 weeks. Each week has 5 days, and crucially the days are numbered (1–5) rather than named– which just makes it easier to keep track of it something is missed for whatever reason. The pattern is Days 1,2 the story (passage) for the week in digestible chunks, Day 3 – we look at how the passage for the week points to Jesus (in the OT – this how it points forward to Jesus often with a NT passage). Day 4 – back to the passage and Day 5 looks at the theme and how that relates to Jesus usually with a passage from Psalms or Prophets. If that was to long – just buy it – and use it – you won’t regret it!
