The Greatest Love | Discovering the Story That Changes Everything

Walk your family through the darkest night and the brightest day the world has ever seen with this 40-day family devotional.

If you’ve ever wanted to teach your children about Jesus’s death and resurrection but weren’t sure where to start, you’re not alone.

The Greatest Love | Discovering the Story That Changes Everything is a 40-day family devotional that walks through Jesus’s final week on earth, His death on the cross, and the joyful days after His resurrection. Odd-numbered days retell a story from the Gospels, and even-numbered days answer the questions kids actually ask, like “Really? A donkey?” and “What happened to the ear?”

Each devotion takes about fifteen minutes and follows the same simple format, so you can lead your family with confidence and no prep. Hands-on activities keep little ones listening, and discussion questions help truth take root at home. Above all, this devotional points your children to the greatest love of all: the love of God, who sent His only Son to rescue them.

The Greatest Love will equip you to:

• Lead your family through the Gospel accounts of Jesus’s final week, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension.

• Answer your children’s real questions about the cross with clear, biblical, kid-friendly explanations.

• Build a simple, consistent rhythm of family devotions that fits into busy days.

• Share the good news of the gospel with your children and invite them to trust in Jesus.
