Probably the number one reason why most parents do not engage in leading family devotions is the fear that their child will ask a question that they don’t know how to answer. Well let me handle this as gently as I can. Get over it and get used to it! Was that gentle enough? Seriously, are you kidding me? I’m a pastor who has had years of seminary training and I get asked questions by my daughter all the time that I can’t answer. In fact, those are some of our best devotional times. Times when we have to wrestle with something we don’t understand about God or how He works or something scripture says. I hope I’m not the first to tell you this but as a Christian, here on earth; you are never going to have all the answers. For me, family devotions are not as much about getting answers as they are about creating an environment where you can ask and wrestle with the questions that life challenges us with.
