Total Family Makeover

God calls us as parents to be key disciple-makers in our children’s
lives, but if we’re honest, some days it’s a battle just to get them
dressed and ready for school on time. How can you mold their hearts when
sometimes you can’t even find their shoes?

In Total Family Makeover, author Melissa Spoelstra gives parents a
way—a sort of spiritual track to run on—when it comes to building family
discipleship. She focuses on eight key habits of growth:

• Spending Time in Prayer
• Reading God's Word
• Growing Through a Mentoring Relationship
• Finding Community in the Church
• Serving Others
• Taking Time to Rest
• Giving Back to God
• Sharing Your Faith

Disciples are made, not born. Whether your children are babes in arms
or teenagers getting ready to leave the nest, making disciples at home
starts with you! Give your family a makeover with this practical
approach to helping your children learn what it means to be a follower
of Jesus.

Proverbs 22:6 tells us to train up our children in the way they should go, but exactly how are we supposed to do that when sometimes it’s a battle just to get our kids dressed and ready for school on time? How did Christ teach his disciples? He lived by example and taught them using hands-on training. When we focus on the eight keys to living like Jesus—prayer, Bible study, mentoring, community, serving, rest, generosity, and evangelism—our children can learn the same way. Making disciples at home starts with YOU! Give your family a makeover with this practical approach to helping your children learn what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
