Busy Family Devotional

"Lucy has created a book that gets families directly into the Bible in a totally accessible way. My family will be talking about what we've read well beyond the initial reading because of the great discussion and prayer prompts. This is the perfect way to help kids develop a sense of the timeline of the Bible without overwhelming parents." -- Christie Thomas, award-winning author of Fruit Full: 100 Family Experiences For Growing in the Fruit of the Spirit * Reviewer *
"The Busy Family Devotional is so simple and accessible! A great resource for busy parents to help families connect with God. Fantastic to have a whole year's worth of content too!" -- Joanna Adeyinka-Burford, tv presenter, actor and author * Reviewer *
"Lucy Rycroft has achieved the impossible: a genuine family devotional that will suit a wide range of ages including the adults, that covers the whole story of the Bible and that feels entirely manageable even in the mess and confusion of busy family life. Snap it up: Lucy knows her stuff, and this will work!" -- Amy Scott Robinson, author and performance storyteller * Reviewer *
"Lucy Rycroft has been encouraging and resourcing family faith for years with practical and realistic wisdom. As a parent of four children, she knows how busy family life can be and what is possible with children of different ages and personalities. This book is a light and simple invitation to families to jump into scripture together without the pressure of preparation, activities, or planning. It can be done in the car, while you are waiting for your other child to get out of swimming, or wherever you find yourself with a slice of time. Exactly what busy families need!" -- Rachel Turner, Founder of Parenting for Faith * Reviewer *
"This family devotional has clearly been created by an expert who knows just what families are looking for. Each part has been carefully and thoughtfully considered. My husband loved the ice breaker that got us to think more widely about the topic. I love the symbol that works for younger kids who just want to colour (or cover in stickers!) but is abstract enough to help older kids stay visually focussed. The questions have been very cleverly worded to be multi-age and open ended. As a family with teenagers and a younger child, I can see us devouring this devotion in much less than 52 weeks and asking for more by the end!" -- Joanne Gilchirst, Writer and Director of Ruach Resources, the home of God for Kids app and books * Reviewer *
"My family is like Lucy's, we need this book to give us another chance at opening the Bible together. Simple, manageable and deep enough to get us all thinking. The whole story of the Bible in beautiful bite-sized chunks." -- Ed Drew, Faith in Kids * Reviewer *
"As a busy Mum of 4, this book would have been a lifeline when my kids were little! It can be so hard to find the time, and the right resources to bring Faith into our children's lives, but Lucy has created a lovely, accessible and (crucially!) QUICK devotional to help our children connect with God, and build that important daily habit. Parents out there who are feeling at a loss, and wondering 'how do I disciple my kids?', look no further! Grab some colouring pens, get hold of this book and start bringing Bible and prayer, and no doubt some great discussion about faith, into your home!" -- Becky Drake, Worship for Everyone * Reviewer *
