Part two in our series of Mum Hacks for Sabbath Mornings

Mums, what’s your best Sabbath morning hack?

Maybe you lay out everyone’s clothes on Friday, keep a permanent church bag packed, prepare breakfast the night before or have a foolproof system for locating missing shoes.

Share the practical little trick that helps your family leave home feeling calmer, more prepared and slightly closer to being on time. Your mum hack might be exactly what another family needs this Sabbath. 💛

Rebus puzzles give your brain a clever little workout by strengthening problem-solving, visual reasoning, memory and creative thinking. They encourage you to look beyond the obvious and notice how words, pictures, size and position work together.

Challenge your family to solve these Christian rebus puzzles and see who can crack the most. Will it be the adults with years of wisdom, or the children who casually solve everything while you’re still staring at number three?

No searching for answers. Bragging rights are absolutely included. 🧠🏆

Let us know how you go? Too Easy? Too Hard? Stuck and want the answers?

When the road gets bumpy, it’s easy for blame and bickering to take over. This week’s Connected Couples Devotional invites couples to slow down, pray together and choose connection instead.

📖 Read Matthew 21:22 together
🙏 Make prayer as natural as breathing
💛 Explore creative ways to reconnect

Strong marriages aren’t built by avoiding every rough patch. They’re built by learning how to face them together, with Jesus at the centre.

Some people teach lessons. Others live them in a way that shapes generations.

Over the years, Murray Hunter, affectionately known as Muzz, has helped lead countless young people closer to Jesus through his work as a teacher, chaplain and youth director.

At Children and Families Ministries, we celebrate the people who invest in children, nurture their faith and help them discover a God who knows and loves them. Muzz’s ministry is a beautiful example of the lasting difference one faithful life can make.

How has God used Muzz to encourage you, shape your faith or lead you closer to Jesus? Share your memory or story in the comments.

Every family has its greatest challenge. For some, it’s getting everyone dressed, fed and out the door for church with the correct number of shoes. For others, it’s convincing children that bedtime is an actual event and not the opening round of negotiations.

So, parents, which is harder?

🛏️ Getting everyone into bed
