DO THIS

MORNING TIME

As your middle schooler starts their day, tell them something you love about them— something that is part of how God created them. (Avoid achievements and focus more on things like character and compassion.)

DRIVE TIME 

While on the go this week, ask: “What is the nicest thing you’ve seen someone do for someone else lately, either online or in-person?”

MEAL TIME

At a meal this week, ask everyone to answer: “Where have you seen God at work lately?”

BED TIME  

Pray that both you and your middle schooler will find ways in your everyday life to show your love for God and the people God created, including you.
