Hi, Fellow Dad!
It’s time to make sure we’re ready for the season with stories to read with our families…but are Christmas stories (or other stories) simply for the purpose of checking off a box on our to-do list? Sure, reading helps us build warm, fuzzy, enjoyable memories together . . . but are there other reasons to read, reasons that make it worth our while even when we’re busy or stressed? Listen while we give a quick run-through of six reasons to read stories together as a family.
—Nathan

- Because stories provide opportunities to talk about situations and ideas that would not otherwise come up in everyday conversation.
- Because stories expand our knowledge and understanding of the world around us--especially how God has worked in people's lives throughout history.
- Because stories introduce us to people whose lives challenge and inspire us to do great things in our own generation.
- Because stories provide common points of reference for each member of the family.
