Getting your kids to focus during family devotions is NOT easy. John and Danny discuss some of the ways they tried to implement things like reading the Bible and praying with their children. Also, Jim Daly talks with Tim Shoemaker about how he went from struggling with devotion times, to getting his kids to love them.
