hymns of our faith

Click on the link above to find a list of hymns you can sing. Find one or two that are specifically about faith. Lyrics are provided for some of the hymns. For others, you might want to grab the family hymnbook, just to have the words handy.
Think about the words as you sing.
How do the hymn writers express their faith?
Do you think their words sum up what it takes to have faith in Jesus in today's world? Why or why not?
Read Matthew 14:22-27.
Then discuss the following questions as a family:
What was the reaction of the disciples when they first saw Jesus walking on the water?
Why do you think they were afraid?
What did Jesus tell them?
In response to the disciples' fear, Jesus reminded them who he was. Think of times when you have been afraid. How can remembering who Jesus is help you to have faith in him?
