Faith Passed Down From Generation to Generation
May 23, 2025
Prayer Points
- Pray for legacy – That parents and grandparents will pass down a vibrant faith to the next generation.
- Pray for revival – That those who have wandered from the faith will return to the Lord.
- Pray for listening hearts – That more people in America will hear and respond to God’s Word through THRU the BIBLE.
Faith is a gift. When passed down with care and consistency, it becomes a powerful legacy, rooted not in tradition but in truth. Today we’re celebrating the kind of legacy that begins in everyday moments, like a father and son working side-by-side in a woodshop. With the help of THRU the BIBLE programs, the gospel continues to echo through individuals and entire families, from generation to generation.
You’ll be encouraged by this listener story sent to us from an American listener:
“I couldn't afford to buy Christmas gifts for anyone, but Dad helped me by allowing me to use his woodshop and materials to make gifts. The real gift he gave me was the precious moments spent with him in the woodshop. While we worked together, Dr. McGee’s voice was always in the background. It was the perfect time with my father. I kept up my woodworking hobby for many years. In the frenzied lead-up to Christmas, while most people were frantically chasing store sales, I had found joy in Christmas music and woodworking. During the time in the woodshop, I would hear gifted preaching on the radio. My dad had passed away, but my faith was rekindled with his help. I had spent most of my early twenties as a prodigal, but my Father was there, awaiting my return.”
What a powerful testimony of grace and faith being passed on through generations. We praise God for a faithful father who planted seeds of truth, and for THRU the BIBLE’s role in bringing this listener home to Christ. May this story encourage you to reflect on the ways God is working in families across America and in your own story too.
As you pray today, ask God to raise up more faithful parents and mentors who will speak truth into the lives of the next generation. Pray that wayward sons and daughters will return to the faith they once heard—perhaps from a parent’s radio in a quiet workshop or a kitchen table. May God continue using THRU the BIBLE to draw hearts back to Him.

We will not hide them from their children, telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and His wonderful works that He has done. – Psalm 78:4
