Where Faith & Family Meet, a three-year weekly family devotional based on the Revised Common Lectionary, is designed to help families share their faith and explore how Bible stories intersect with stories in their own lives.

Each devotion is divided into three sections, "Your Story," "My Story and the Bible Story," and "Discussion and Prayer," and will guide families to a deeper understanding of how God is working in their lives and how these Bible stories are still relevant for us today.

Rev. Jessica Asbell is the Minister to Children and Families at First Baptist Roswell, where she has been serving since 2012.
