THIS MONTH'S IMPACT
This month is all about FUN! With patriotic utensils, a decorative cutting board, a festive coaster, beautiful artwork and a family-friendly devotional, this box is the starter kit for a fun evening of food and family time with loved ones. It’s our hope that as you spend time digging deeper into this theme, you will also come to see that God created fun. It’s His desire to bless you with moments in life to have fun and experience life to the fullest right along with Him! No matter what you’re facing this month, we pray you’ll find time to open your heart to have fun, make memories with the ones you love, and feel God’s goodness upon on you!

FUN
Hey Faithbox Family,
With so much chaos ensuing in our world today, it can be easy to get caught up in the negative news stories and feel our joy being drowned out.
Many of us also deal with challenges and problems we never saw coming or expected. We’re faced with innumerable questions and uncertainties. From personal levels to a global scale, we’ve all encountered dilemmas we weren’t prepared for.
But when these uncertainties threaten to steal our hope and happiness, it’s important for us to remember that God created us to have FUN, which is our theme for this month!
Now, you may be asking, “How is there time for fun when my life is seemingly falling apart? When I’m losing hope, how can I even experience fun? Is it even appropriate to focus on having fun when I’m struggling to keep my head above water?”
Those are some of the questions we plan to answer over the course of this month. The truth is fun comes from God. And throughout the Bible, we’re given examples of fun and instructions to have fun, but we’re never commanded to not have fun.
Even in the midst of challenges and uncertainties, God desires for His people to have joy, to celebrate, and to make room for fun in their lives.
As we navigate this month, we hope to be a refreshing voice in your journey and one that points back to good gifts God the Father offers to you.
We’re in this together,
-The Faithbox Team
Including God in family.
Spending time together around the table is critical for growing healthy family relationships. Celebrate the most connected part of your day with Faith to Table.
This devotional is filled with conversation starters, meaningful devotions, and impacting Scriptures. Be filled with gratitude for all God’s goodness as you participate in family activities and praise moments. Focus your days and nights around God, and you will impart wisdom for life’s many challenges.
Grow closer to God and to each other as you bring your faith to the table!
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.”

Prep on theme.

It's made with top quality bamboo so it will never crack or splinter, and it will stay moisture resistant. It also comes with a lovely ornament with displaying the scripture verse, Psalms 33:12: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He chose for His inheritance.” The decorative ornament was laser cut from re-engineered wood and run under a digital printer to create the image. Prep delicious meals on the cutting board and then use it as a table decoration or prop it up in your kitchen as a reminder of God’s goodness…all year round!

Custom Watercolor Art Design for Fun
![](https://thechurchco-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/sites/6162/2024/06/Maddie-with-art-card.jpg)
Art for your home, office, or friend.
This month’s Faithbox includes a 5”x7” art card designed to encourage and inspire you as we focus on having fun and enjoying the blessings God gives us! This art card features the scripture verse from Psalm 33:12: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.” We hope it serves as a reminder that as God’s people, we are blessed. He has greatness in store for us and created us to experience fun.
Place this card on your desk at work, hang it on the refrigerator, put it in a picture frame on your bedside, or share it with a friend who you know may also need the extra boost of encouragement!
Madeline is a hand-lettering and watercolor artist from Saint Louis, Missouri. She combines her love for art with her Christian faith to create beautiful art with meaning and purpose. As a teenager, Madeline started her company, Inspired Inks, with the intention of using her art as a means to uplift others with encouragement while supporting various organizations who are fighting for justice, supporting law enforcement, strengthening families, and, most importantly, sharing the Gospel!
“Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to his name. And don’t forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God.”
Spiritual Inventory
Our Spiritual Inventory Card is intended to help you get the most out of your faith by being able to track how you’re growing and where you’re going. As you start the new month, take time to reflect on each area and identify where you are doing well and where you can commit a little more focus.
Time with God: More than anything, a relationship with God is exactly that: a relationship. This area focuses on the ways you connect with God. It can include things like prayer, scripture reading, meditation, and reflection.
Relationships: You have been placed in the lives of others to make a difference! Take time each month to consider who God has placed in your life, how those relationships are developing, and what your role is to make a positive impact in their lives.
Generosity: Generosity is at the heart of who God is and all that He does. This area is about the opportunities you have to make a positive impact financially. No matter how large or small, giving financially to an organization or person in need makes an impact.
Serving: A life that’s moving forward is a life that is concerned with the needs of others. In this area of focus, consider where or how you can get involved to serve others in your life, your church, and your community.
“The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith.”
