Forward in Faith: A Family Guide for Growing TogetherSample

Living Out Your Faith Daily

Key Scripture

“Let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.” –Matthew 5:16 (NLT)

Meditation

Faith is not just a belief; it’s a way of life. It shows up in how we speak, respond, and serve. At home, faith is often caught more than it is taught—woven into everyday moments like mealtime prayers, hard conversations, and shared laughter.

As we seek to follow Christ daily, we help one another see what it means to walk in the light. When we make mistakes, taking ownership, confessing, and repenting helps us grow as a family and shows a watching world what it looks like to walk in God’s mercy and grace. When families live with consistency and compassion, others take notice—and God gets the glory.

Reflection

• What actions can you identify in your own behavior that you would not want to pass on to others in your family? What would you like that specific action to look like in the future?
• How can your family create intentional habits that reflect your faith every day?

Prayer

Father, may our lives be a living testimony of Your love and grace. Help us to walk with integrity and kindness in every moment. Teach us to bring You into the ordinary places of our day. Amen.
