Destiny Game

## Description

"Where life is lived with an eternal perspective"

Kids love to anticipate life experiences like a first date or a job, accompanied with some of the choices they will have along the way. Both kids and adults are challenged to cultivate an eternal perspective to guide their choices in this life. And at the end we apply Bible teaching to learn our eternal Destiny. What will yours be?

This game is designed to provide lots of teachable moments. But they are much better if adults are actively involved! Parents (and grandparents), you need to invest some time playing "The Game of Destiny" with your kids. This is not just a game for your kids to entertain themselves. It is a great opportunity for you to learn what your kids are thinking and interact with them about real life. For some ideas, click on the 'Parents' button on the home page.
