Printable family devotions that inspire spiritual conversations.
In the book of Acts, we get to hear how the Gospel (the good news about Jesus) started moving out from Jerusalem (where Jesus died) to the whole world! We learn how the Church got its start! It’s about God’s work in the world and we’re now a part of that, too. This is His story—“history!”
Each journal page corresponds with one chapter and includes two kid-friendly prompts such as History Tidbits and Fun Facts for conversation starters. The dedicated space Favorite Words, This Story Inspired Me, and more gives families a place to process thoughts and feelings by writing or drawing while encouraging independent reading for teens.
The Book Summary offers the setting and theme to paint the overall picture of Acts. Also included is Big Questions Simple Answers, where parents and kids alike learn where Acts fits into God's love story, the history of Isreal and the early church, why there are four gospels, and more!

I see there are two purchase options. Which one should I choose?
The group license permits churches to duplicate, and the individual license is for families.
I see there is a suggested Reading Plan. Is it dated?
No. We choose an undated reading plan because every family's schedule is different. They can choose to work through Acts as it best fits their schedule. Is it dinner each night? Weekends?
Is Acts for children or teenagers?
Both! This material is for all ages.
For teens, the journal prompts encourage independent reading. For children, parents can use the prompts as conversation starters.
