About "God's Design"
Some people have called the Bible, "God's love letter to humanity". This is because the Bible's central message is one of great love; God's love. Another name for this wonderful message is "The Gospel".
Over the course of this 8-day devotional your family will learn about how everything in creation finds it's ultimate meaning and purpose in The Gospel. You will discover how marriage and sexuality were designed uniquely to be a beautiful symbol of the Gospel, in that Jesus is "the groom", and his church is "the bride". After completing this devotional your family will better understand how God's specific instructions & restrictions around marriage and sexuality are given to lead to our flourishing, and make God look glorious.

It's all about God
This devotional teaches us a lot about the God of the Bible. On each day of this devotional your family will read a few key passages from the Bible and then talk about what they teach us about ourselves and about God.
"For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him."
- Colossians 1:16
Each day there are a number of thoughtful questions to encourage everyone to participate and learn from one another. You will also cut, paste, stick and color on top of a memorable poster that ties it all together.
"keep my commandments and live; keep my teaching as the apple of your eye; Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart."
