@jonlgroves: Family dinner doesn’t have to be expensive. In fact, some of the healthiest meals are often the simplest. Single-ingredient foods are usually cheaper, more filling, and better for you than processed convenience foods. Have a set time. When dinner happens consistently, it creates a healthy rhythm in the home. It’s the signal that the work of the day is winding down and the family is coming back together. Put away the phones. Turn off the TV. Remove the distractions. The people sitting across from you are more important than whatever is happening on a screen. Use the table for more than eating. Ask intentional questions. Share victories and struggles. Pray together. Make eye contact. Listen well. Build relationships one conversation at a time. And don’t underestimate what happens when children hear their parents pray. The dinner table may be one of the greatest discipleship tools in your home. Long before they learn to pray in public, they’ll learn by listening to Mom and Dad talk to God over a meal. Strong families aren’t built in a day. They’re built day after day around ordinary tables having meaningful conversations. You may not remember every meal, and you will not remember every conversation, but you will be nourished for life by every single moment. ##family##familydinner
