March 06, 202695. Welcome to the Family - Friday
95. Welcome to the Family
Friday - March 6, 2026
We wrap up our week on Being Together by looking at the verse from Ephesians that declares us part of God’s family. We reflect on what we’ve experienced this week and look for ways to deepen connections as we move forward.
Discussion Question(s)
• Did you have any moments this week when you felt connected to someone else or a group of people? How did it make you feel?
• Why do you think God made community and connection such a big deal when God designed the world, animals, and us humans?
• Are there any new connections you’d like to make or old connections you’d like to make stronger?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you that we’re *not* strangers but members of your family. We are all God’s children. May we keep our connection to you and each other on our hearts and in our minds so we can look for ways to join you in strengthening these bonds. Amen.

March 05, 202694. Noticing Who's Left Out - Thursday
94. Noticing Who's Left Out
Thursday - March 5, 2026
The playground is packed on a beautiful Grace Harbor afternoon, but not everyone is having fun. We discover that being together sometimes means being the one who notices when others feel left out.
Discussion Question(s)
• Can you think of anyone in your life who might be feeling lonely or left out?
Prayer
Dear God, we’re grateful for the times when we feel connected to community and loved by our friends and family. There are also times when we can feel lonely and left out, even if we’re surrounded by other people. Comfort us when we feel this way, but also keep our eyes open so we can be a source of comfort and connection for others as well. Amen.

93. Mimic the Meerkat
Wednesday - March 4, 2026
Did you know a group of flamingos is called a flamboyance? We explore the amazing communities animals create and discover that God designed us for connection too.
Discussion Question(s)
• Groups of animals have special names, like a flamboyance of flamingos. If you had to give a name to the group that is your family, what would your group name be?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for our family, our community, the human race, and for all creation. When we look at the world around us, it becomes clear that we’re all connected. Everyone is important, everyone is loved by you, and that includes us too. Amen.

March 03, 202692. Long Distance Gratitude - Tuesday
92. Long Distance Gratitude
Tuesday - March 3, 2026
Dan's reading a book set in Japan and getting excited for a Spring Break trip to Hawaii. For Gratituesday, we focus on people we miss—near, far, and those no longer with us—and discover that being together doesn't always mean being in the same room.
Discussion Question(s)
• Who is someone you miss, and what do you love about them?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you that you are as near to us as the breath in our lungs. Sometimes, we can feel disconnected and faraway from you or the people we miss, but remind us that love is what binds us all together. Amen.

91. Connecting Through Stories
Monday - March 2, 2026
It's Read Across America week, and Mrs. Rodriguez is throwing a Dr. Seuss-themed costume party at the library! We celebrate the power of stories to connect us and introduce this week’s theme: Being Together.
Discussion Question(s)
• What is a book or story you read recently that you enjoyed, and why did you like it?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for the gift of stories. You designed our hearts and minds to not only love them but to use them as a way to connect with each other. Help us have the courage to both share our stories and listen to the stories of others. Amen.

February 27, 202690. Brave Enough to Let Go - Friday
90. Brave Enough to Let Go
Friday - February 27, 2026
A burst pipe at The Blue Anchor teaches us that even the most capable people need help sometimes. As we close our week on bravery, we discover that one of the bravest things we can do is let go and let others—including God—help us.
Discussion Question(s)
• What is something you could really use some help with, but you haven’t asked for it yet?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you that you are always with us and always listening. Give us the bravery to ask you for help whenever we need it, knowing that no matter what we ask, you respond to us in love. Amen.

February 26, 202689. Tell a Fairy Tale Day - Thursday
89. Tell a Fairy Tale Day
Thursday - February 26, 2026
Happy Tell a Fairy Tale Day! We’re exploring why people have told fairy tales for thousands of years and how heroes like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and Jack who climbs the beanstalk show us what real bravery looks like — choosing to do the right thing even when it's hard.
Discussion Question(s)
• Are there any things in the area around where you live that could inspire a fairy tale?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for fun and inspiring stories of courage and bravery. Help us remember that those aren’t just stories we can enjoy, but we can help write and even live stories like that too. Give us the courage to be brave and choose the right thing, even when things get hard, knowing you’re right there with us. Amen.

February 25, 202688. Quiet Day - Wednesday
88. Quiet Day
Wednesday - February 25, 2026
Today is Quiet Day, and we explore how one-on-one time, both with family and with God, lets us show a different side of ourselves. We are reminded that being silent and still aren’t the only ways to quiet ourselves.
Discussion Question(s)
• What do you love about getting to spend one-on-one time with your adult or a sibling?
Prayer
Today’s prayer is a “breath prayer,” where you pray a word or phrase as you inhale and another word or phrase as you exhale.
Inhale: Dear God
Exhale: I’m listening

February 24, 202687. Being Brave - Tuesday
87. Being Brave
Tuesday - February 24, 2026
It takes bravery to admit our mistakes and say we're sorry, but being brave doesn't mean being fearless. A zip line adventure helps us see that courage means choosing to act even when we're scared.
Discussion Question(s)
• How do you feel when you think about the mistakes you’ve made or the ways you’ve missed the mark?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for this day and for the love and forgiveness you offer to us. It can be scary to admit when we’re wrong and to say we’re sorry. Help us to remember that being brave doesn’t mean we’re fearless, but it means we choose to do the right things anyway. Amen.

February 23, 202686. Intro to Lent - Monday
86. Intro to Lent
Monday - February 23, 2026
We kick off the season of Lent, which prepares us for Easter in a similar way that Advent prepared us for Christmas. Using the image of a bow and arrow, we explore what the Bible means by "sin"—missing the mark—and why we all need help hitting the target.
Discussion Question(s)
• What are some of the reasons why someone using a bow and arrow might miss the mark?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for the season of Lent. It isn’t always comfortable to think about our mistakes and sin, but we don’t dwell on them to make ourselves feel bad. We reflect on them so that we can ask for your help and work alongside of you to better be the people you made us to be. Amen.
