I came across this site while looking for Reformed devotional resources for my family. I would love to hear what others are doing with their family devotions and what resources they are using.

Comment on Children at the Lord’s Table? by Luke Welch

I know you probably didn’t mean to imply this, but to be clear, paedocommunionists do not believe that non-communicant members should be communicated. Their children are faithfilled covenant members and are therefore communicant.The explanation given here would be like a baptist saying that paedobaptism is the practice of admitting non-covenant members to baptism. Presbyterians believe the children ARE covenant members and would be upset to hear that someone thought they were letting non-christians be baptized.

I’d like to know when a resource such as this will be made available for the red hymnal. There used to be such a website by some individual, but it was apparently requested to be removed by the publishers. This, after I’d gotten very attached to it. Please, Trinity Hymnal publishers, do the same for the red one, too! We don’t all own the original, nor do we desire to obtain a copy.

i would also recommend Bruce Ware’s “Big Truths for Young Hearts”. a great way for moms and dads to better and more effectively boil some of the greater concepts of the faith down into comprehensible and foundational ideas for their children.

Comment on Children’s Books by Camden Bucey

Unfortunately there aren't that many books out there that do not have pictures of Jesus in them. This is naturally going to be a struggle for many reformed families. After speaking with a few people who would know, I received the following recommendations. The Banner of Truth edition (3 volumes in paperback) of Catherine Vos's Child's Story Bible is a helpful resource. You might also look at The Life of Jesus for the Very Young. Neither of these have pictures of Jesus. Christian Focus apparently publishes one as well, though I'm not aware of it and can't find the specific reference.

Can you suggest a good children’s story book Bible without any pictures of Jesus?

Thanks for this. Here’s another resource on catechism encouraging parents to catechize (train) their children in the faith:
