Help your child understand and live out God’s purpose in their life with The Purpose Driven Life Devotional for Kids by Pastor Rick Warren. Based upon the themes and ideas found in his bestselling book The Purpose Driven Life, this 365-day devotional for children 8 to 12, shows how to authentically live out God’s plan and trust Him along the way.
These short 5 minute devotionals aim to share how God created each of his children with a purpose in mind, and how to thoughtfully and prayerfully start the incredible journey of finding that reason. This year-long devotional will guide readers through self-discovery in prayer, building purposefully friendships and relations, and creating a fulfilling life through God’s word.
The Purpose Driven Life Devotional for Kids:
- Is written especially for children or tweens ages 8-12
- Features a short message and thought for the day to help children discover who they are in God’s eyes and why God made them, as well as a daily Scripture verse
- Makes the perfect gift for Christmas, Easter, birthdays, and other holidays
- Is a great reference in Sunday school, youth group, or children’s and middle grade ministry
This daily devotional can be read individually or as a family. The devotions provide solid truths that every child should know about God’s love for His children and the purpose for them.
Pastor Warren’s adult book The Purpose Driven Life (2002) has been translated into 50 languages. This volume, aimed at young people, uses a day-by-day devotional format to engage readers in thinking about God, prayer, and the Bible. The book is divided into six “purposes”: The Reason for Everything; Faith and Friendship with God; Your Part in God’s Family; Becoming like Christ; Serving God, Serving Others; You Were Made for a Mission. Within each section, Warren focuses on a biblical passage from the Old and New Testaments and offers both a kid-friendly discussion and a brief prayer that encapsulates the message. Most of the discussions make the passages relevant to young people, though some feel forced, as when analysis of a passage in Genesis in which Sarai’s name is changed to Sarah attests she was originally known only as Abraham’s wife, and then suggests readers ask their parents how they were named or contemplate God’s name for them. Still, kids will make their own connections, and the decorative format makes the book quite manageable for young readers. --- Ilene Cooper * Booklist *
