Big Faith in Small Moments
A 5-Minute Devotional Series for Families

Big faith doesn’t grow in one big moment — it grows in small, faithful ones.
This short devotional is designed to help parents and kids pause together, talk about faith, and grow closer to God in everyday life. You can use it at home, on the way to school, or anytime you need a meaningful faith moment without a lot of prep.

part 2: FOLLOWING JESUS IS THE GREATEST ADVENTURE!

Today’s Big Faith Thought

Following Jesus is the greatest adventure you and your family could ever go on.

When you choose to follow Jesus, you’re stepping into an exciting journey where you learn, grow, and discover new things every day. You may not always know what’s around the corner, but you can be confident of this: Jesus is always with you.

He leads you with love and helps you do amazing things—like showing kindness, helping others, and trusting God even when life feels hard. With Jesus by your side, you are never alone. You are safe, deeply loved, and ready for whatever comes next.

God’s Word for Your Journey

God’s Word reminds us that Jesus is a trustworthy guide on every step of our journey.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take.”
Proverbs 3:5–6

God promises to teach and guide us with care and love.

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.”
Psalm 32:8

Jesus personally invites us to follow Him and share His love with others.

“Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.”
Matthew 4:19

Let’s Talk About It

Use these questions to spark meaningful faith conversations together:

What do you need Jesus to help you with right now?
How do you think Jesus can help you with that?
Can you remember a time when Jesus helped you before?

Prayer for Your Journey

Jesus,
Thank you for inviting us on the amazing adventure of following you. Help us trust you with all our hearts, even when we don’t understand what’s happening. Show us the right path each day and help us make choices that honor you. Teach us to love others the way you love us—with kindness, patience, and grace. Thank you for always being with us. We know that with you by our side, we are safe and ready for whatever comes next.
Amen.
