Interesting but Sad Statistics on Family and God

Families today tend to talk about everything but God in the home. Families talk about the weather, sports, school, extracurricular activities, and relationships, but rarely talk about their walks with Christ. Here are some interesting but sad stats discovered by Richard Ross in his book Parenting with a Kingdom Purpose. Great book to read.

-Only 10% of Church families discusses it's faith with any degree of regularity in their home.
-43% of church families never discuss there faith at home.
- 64% of church families rarely or never have devotions or worship as a family
- Only 9% reported having family devotions of any regularity at home.

Good news:
"Religious practices in the home virtually double the probability of a congregation's youth entering into the life and mission of Christ's church."

So much of a teenager's spiritual walk is dependant upon what he or she is learning at home. Parents it's so important to lead out in making your home an environment of worship, love, and discussion of the Lord.
