Did you think we’d forgotten the next chapter?  January and February months are focusing on how we get to love. Here are some ideas to apply this February…

Chapter 7 – Women LOVE

1. Study the story of Ruth and Naomi
2. Priscilla Shirrer’s Teen Study: Radiant
3. Dive into the friendship of Jonathon and David
4. Look up and study the 4 types of love we find in the Bible:

• Storge (empathy)
• Philia (friendship)
• Eros (romance)
• Agape (Unconditional God’s love)

Watch & Read

A few movies to open up discussions on LOVING well:

• Pretty Faces
• Soul Surfer
• Love Different
• Beaches
• The Help
• Secret Life of Bees

A few books to consider:

• Crazy Love by Frances Chan
• Everybody Always by Bob Goff
• Love Does by Bob Goff

Experience…

1. Daddy/Daughter Time

Encourage a daddy/daughter date night or trip. If your daughter normally does a Father/Daughter dance consider helping them create their own at home this year!

2. Write Letters

Encourage your daughter to love on others this month by writing a letter to someone to tell them how special they are to her.

3. Door Doilies (You can buy these at the Dollar Store right now!)

Put 14 HEART Doilies on everyone’s door in your home. Encourage everyone to write things on them that they love about each person.

Praying for you!

I hope these ideas help as you focus on loving this month! We would LOVE to hear how it’s going–and if you have things to add to the list please let us know so we can share it with other moms also. Praying for all of you as you lead your daughters through this year. If you have gotten behind–now is a great time to jump back in! Just jump in on Chapter 7 and try some of these ideas this month as you are able.

Much love from my house to yours!
