About this listen

Thanks for joining us for Part 2 of our series on Raising A Child with Special Needs.

But first..Dave and Bethlie answer a question from a listener.

"What do yall recommend to do for family devotions with a 2 year old, and even how often?"

  1. Make family devotions simple and easy
    1. Read to your little one
      1. This trains them to sit and listen
    2. Memorize 1 verse with your little one
      1. Say it to them over and over at specific times
        1. Before a meal
        2. Before prayer
        3. At bedtime
      2. Say it repeatedly until they begin saying it themselves
    3. Pray with them (just a short prayer . . .)
      1. Put them in bed and have dim lights and quiet music
      2. Talk quietly at that time of night
      3. Kneel beside their bed
      4. Touch them, rub their head or their back and sing to them, say a verse to them, and have a short prayer

Now let's dive into the episode for today!
