Book Reviews of Devotions for the Childrens Hour

Book Review: Best devotional book we have
Summary: 5 Stars

I was given the 1954 version and I'm so impressed. It is not full of watered-down stories, but sound biblical DOCTRINE. I read it to my 4 year old and he actually enjoys answering the 3 follow-up questions. Each chapter is just a few pages of biblical truth, very well written, and an engaging story at the end to illustrate the point even more. Then it gives you a few verses to read from the Bible, 3-4 questions, a sample prayer, and a hymn suggestion.

The introduction says it is meant for 7-12 year olds, but my 4 yo is "getting" it. We do a chapter most mornings, or right after dinner (family altar). I believe we will go through this book several times. It also suggests that you go through Bible story books as well. But during the devo you pick up your Bible and read from that.

A few points from the 1954 introduction: "But while the child is learning to read the Scriptures, he needs also to have the great Bible truths building up in him as pivots or centers around which all that he reads can center and relate. A child thus fortified can withstand many a frightening intellectual assault in the coming years. The truths of the Scriptures become to him familiar friends...

"The Word of God is a strong tonic and tower. In the book the Word is stated for the children. The meat of the Word is cut up fine so that children can eat it; but it is still meat - good solid food...

"These lessons should be used more than once. In teaching children, we must give line upon line, precept upon precept, repeating the truth which we would teach, until it becomes impossible for the child to forget it."

It is excellent.

Summary of Devotions for the Childrens Hour

Prepare your children to stand strong in this age of questions and contradictions.David and Goliath. Noah and the ark. Jonah and the whale. Children love stories of Bible characters. Yet they need more than just the stories. They need to understand the truths that lie behind these stories. Truth that will answer tough questions such as: Who is God? What if I'm a Christian and I still sin? What does God want me to do? Why did Jesus have to die? How will I know if others love Jesus?For many years, Ken Taylor has been giving children this biblical foundation through his books. While containing profound truth, they are written in simple and plain language that kids can understand.Full of stories and straight talk and complete with suggested Bible reading, questions for thought, relevant prayers, and songs to sing, Devotions for the Children's Hour will give your children the head start they need to stand on the Rock of Salvation in this shaky world.
