New free Lutheran resource! Devotions at Home: A Tutorial includes devotional suggestions for use with the Lutheran Service Book and makes suggestions for additional resources. This PDF also includes a chart for reading through the Book of Psalms in 30 days.

Also, just so you know, The Story Bible is broken down into 140 sections, which would give you one story a day, five days a week, for 28 weeks. That’s pretty good for ages 3-8! Great for devotions at home with younger ones!

Here is a link to a page that sorts CPH Bibles according to age. It also has 5 Bible reading plans you can download and follow, including a one-year, two-year, Bible narratives, chronological, and daily lectionary. 

For reading plans through the Lutheran confessions, you can go here for a summer plan, here for a yearly plan, and here for a Lenten plan. (By the way, Luther’s Large Catechism is great reading for middle schoolers and older.)

Devotions at Home: A Tutorial

A Lutheran mom, as often happens, had a great idea! She made a list of Arch books to correspond (more or less) with her Jesse Tree readings!

So, if your family gathers around a Jesse Tree and you’re interested in additional Lutheran sources, our latest LutheranHomeschool.com product is a free list of CPH Arch books to correspond with just that practice.

Do I wish I’d heard about this sooner rather? Why, yes, yes I do. 🙂 Especially since the CPH Thanksgiving sale was a really, really good one! But at least gathering resources means we’re better prepared for next year! And maybe I already have some of those titles anyway.

A blessed Advent to all of you!

If there were one thing I could change on LutheranHomeschool.com right now, it would be to better present our free resources, especially those that are just linked. Thankfully, one of those links just turned into another freebie product: Lutheran Memory Work for Lutheran Schools and Homes (New King James Translation). 🙂 It contains suggested memory work material for grades first through eighth!

The other thing I’d like to change is get more materials up in the marketplace! I know that takes time. But, if you happen to want a little project, I’d love to put up some scope and sequence information for Lutheran children’s books. And, remember, if you’re tweaking curriculum to better suit your Lutheran needs, we’re happy to take your recommendations and pass them along to folks who may be essentially following in your footsteps.

Blessings on your holiday seasons & homeschooling!
