An Amazing Idea

I came across this quote today and it stopped me cold.

Once when he was giving a concert, I heard Michael Card say that he was reading his daughter’s Bible, which he explained that he bought each of his kids a Bible and read it before giving it to them. And as he read it, he made notes in the margins, speaking directly to whichever child’s Bible he was reading… so that years later as they read it, their father would be speaking to them in the margins concerning the text and its application for their lives.

What an amazing idea!

  1. that is a great idea!! I have tried to write little notes, comments, etc to each of my kids as they have grown–something they can re-read again and again but never thought of the Bible idea! thanks for passing it on…
