Studying the Bible?

[The Librarian]

This is what Family Worship Night often looks like now in 2016

A picture says 1,000 words I guess.

Studying the Bible when I was a child in 1979 looked SO much different. And it involved actual reading of the Bible.

Hmmm..

Will these children be prepared to defend their beliefs in the future with only a Bible in hand?

Actually "studying the Bible" with your kids in 1979 mostly involved fighting to get everybody to sit down and be still and read Bible verses in small print they didn't understand and could not picture in their minds.

Evidently you missed the point about Noah doing "just so" and the FDS feeding us if you have issues with current teaching methods.

Not so many words really. It just says that some brothers have a lot more money than many others.

My Book of Bible Stories came out in 1978 and the pink Great Teacher book had been around for a few years. Didn't your family use these new 'spiritual provisions' from the 'slave class'?
