Up, Down, and All Around

A Handbook for Discipling Our Children Based on Deuteronomy 6

Deuteronomy 6 says to talk about God when you sit, when you walk, when you lie down, and when you get up. Nobody tells you what that looks like on a Tuesday.

About the Book

Most discipleship resources hand you a curriculum and a schedule, which works great until week 3 when someone gets the flu and the whole thing collapses. This book takes a different angle. It builds from the passage that started it all, Deuteronomy 6, and turns it into something you can actually live inside your ordinary week.

It's a handbook, not a program. There's no start date and nothing to fall behind on. You'll find practical ways to disciple your kids in the car, at the table, during bedtime, and in the middle of the moments you were already going to have anyway. The goal is a home where faith is part of the air, not a subject you cover on Wednesdays.

Who It's For

  • Parents who want to disciple their kids but keep bouncing off rigid programs
  • Families in busy seasons where a formal curriculum isn't realistic
  • Homeschool families looking for a discipleship spine rather than another subject
  • Grandparents, mentors, and children's ministry leaders
