Overview
While there are lots of one-year Bible reading plans and family devotionals, few help kids understand the words that they're reading. In this new addition to the popular Core 52 line of resources, Mark E. Moore and his daughter, former teacher and stay-at-home mom Megan Howerton, coach you and your family through 52 of the Bible's key verses.
Each week provides you and your child with a simple 5-day plan:
• Day 1—read the Bible verse and explanatory text and start a fun challenge
• Day 2—memorize a key verse with the help of an engaging 3-minute video
• Day 3—read a longer related Bible passage and answer a question
• Day 4—further explore through a second Scripture verse and question
• Day 5—answer deeper questions together and assess the results of the week’s challenge
In just a year, Core 52 Family Edition takes children aged 6 to 12 from biblically curious to spiritually confident and competent. Best of all, it’s a journey you’ll take with them!

A Note from the authors
PARENTS AND MENTORS,
We know that raising kids can be chaotic. I (Mark) raised a strong-willed child (Megan) who has now given me four world-class grandchildren. One day she was sitting with me in our pool and said, “Dad, I love what Core 52 is doing for adults, taking them through the mountaintop passages of the Bible in one year. I wish there was something like that for my kids.” My reply: “Write it!” She protested that she was unqualified. So I ticked off her résumé: college-trained elementary school teacher, mother of four, pastor’s wife, and daughter of a Bible college professor. Well, you hold in your hand the result. What Megan put together is incredible (which you expect me to say). But seriously, when she gave me the first few chapters, I was blown away. . . I said (aloud, I think), “This will actually work!”
With tears in my eyes, I began to imagine parents and mentors like you sitting in a classroom or around a dinner table, having life-altering conversations with your kids. I’m a teacher at heart. My job is to give you what you need to equip your children for the battlefield of life (feel free to “cheat” by grabbing a copy of Core 52 or Core 52 Student Edition for your teens). The biblical principles of this book will empower your kids for spiritual success. If you invest ten to fifteen minutes a day, five days a week, for one year, your child will have a firm foundation in every major principle of the Bible. That’s our promise.
No one can do for your child what you can do as a mentor. Megan and I simply and humbly want to offer you this resource, which will support you in making a majestic difference in the spiritual growth of those on whom Jesus placed the highest priority.
