It's no secret that I love to read! I often share what I'm reading on social media, I love to read before bed, and I usually can get through a few books while on vacation. A love of reading can come naturally, but it can also be nurtured and developed at home. No matter your children's ages, as a parent, you are the best person to help them learn and develop a love for books.

My guest today firmly believes that a love of reading starts at home. Sarah Mackenzie has made it her mission to help families create meaningful connections through reading books. She is the author of The Read-Aloud Family and Teaching from Rest: A Homeschooler's Guide to Unshakable Peace. She is also the host of the Read-Aloud Revival Podcast.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• 5 tips on how to create a habit of reading in your home
• How to start reading with your pre-teen and teenage children
• The benefits of reading aloud with your children
• And more!

No matter your relationship with reading, I pray that this episode is an encouragement to you today!
