Focus on the Family, a nationwide broadcast heard weekdays at 6am on KJ Country 102.3, is sponsoring Bring Your Bible to School Day. The event will take place this Thursday, October 7.
Here's a letter that Focus President Jim Daly sent out regarding Thursday's event:
"Bring Your Bible to School Day is just three days away! It’s happening this Thursday, October 7, and I’d love for your family to be a part of it.
I look forward to this day every year. Last year, over half a million students around the country encouraged their classmates with their favorite verses, talked about Bible stories, invited friends to church, and so much more! They took bold steps in sharing their faith, and I want you to encourage your family to do the same.
If you and your family haven’t signed up yet, please sign up right away at BringYourBible.org so we know you’re participating! We want to have an accurate count of every family and pray for you. (If you’ve already signed up, thank you!)
Whether your children are homeschooled, do school online, or attend school on a campus, there are ways for them to share the gospel and grow in their faith. I love how Joshua 1:9 says: 'Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.'
What powerful words of encouragement! Just as God was with the Israelites as they went to Jericho, God is with your family as you share His Word. The people around you need to know God’s hope and truth, and you’ve been called to bring it to them.
Thank you for partnering with us on this important event!"
