Episode 4 - Church Support

This week your family will GET INTO 1 Timothy 4:12. You’ll discover why it’s important to be an example to others in what you SAY, what you LOVE, what you put your FAITH in, and through your PURITY.

So, gather your family, cue up the video, and … GET INTO IT!

After the video remind your family that this week you’ll TALK IT UP and look for ways to ACT IT OUT together. Think of people who are an example to your family of how to live for God. What do they SAY? How do they show LOVE? How do they put their FAITH in action? In what ways can you see their PURITY?
