A little faith each day

One story, four small steps.

A quiet moment after school or a story before bed. Each visit follows the same gentle path.

  1. Read

    Turn the pages of a colorful Bible story, one short part at a time.

  2. Listen

    Tap “Read to me” and a friendly voice reads the story aloud. Pause and pick up where you left off.

  3. Play

    Put the story in order, find the words, or try a quick quiz to help it stick.

  4. Pray

    End with a short prayer, or visit the Prayer Garden for words of comfort.
