Let's explore this simple daily habit (and some easy ways to incorporate it into your home) of reading the lives of the saints to our children. Let's explore why we should create this habit and answering some FAQs such as "are my kids too young?" Further more! When we gather as a family to read the lives of the saints, we’re doing something far more than simply telling stories. Reading the saints daily keeps our faith alive in the home. It reminds us that holiness isn’t something distant or impossible — it’s what we’re ALL called to. And when our children grow up hearing these stories day after day, they begin to see the world differently. They learn that suffering is a participation in Christs suffers, that love is stronger than fear, and that every ordinary moment can be filled with Christ. This daily habit becomes like the lighting of a small lamp — one that keeps burning in the heart of your family. Through the witness of the saints, our homes are filled with the sweet smelling fragrance of faith, and our children come to know that they too are called to be part of this great story — the story of Christ lived out in His saints.
