Yea, they were really stressing the importance of family study. There should be no excuses now, ya know? It is a little sad though, cuz you get so close to the people in your bookstudy. But it make...
i think some families ... do not do family study for one reason or another. hopefully this will help, and it's not another night to just watch TV or something.
Was it clear that this should replace our family study? I'm not sure really. Our family study is the Weekly Bible Reading and Watchtower Study for the week.
I don't plan on moving those to replace the bookstudy. I think we'll keep that schedule, and for Family Worship we'll go through another book, or deeper subjects.
I thought they said that this would be a good opportunity to ensure the family study is done on a set day. Maybe I interpretted it wrong. I guess in my situation being Dad & Mom, it's hard to keep a set day for studying with the two of them. I do different things with the two of them and have to study individually with them. Jake does the Great Teacher book and Emily does the bible story book. Pretty soon it'll be on to the Young People ask book with Jake since he'll be hitting puberty in a couple of years. Scary thought...
You may be right, I'll have to read the letter once it's posted on the board. And I'm sure we'll have a bunch of information coming soon on it, anyway.
