Our church encourages this resource for family devotions.  The new Family Connect does not offer Bible verses for everyday of the week.  It is a one time devotion.  It is not as in depth and as DHtP and not worth the 24.99 per quarter.

Sorry Group.  Not sure this was your best change decision.

Hi,

Thank you for sharing your concerns about the new FamilyConnect. We really appreciate your feedback and it’s always helpful to hear when something doesn’t seem like it will work for our customers.

One of the main reasons for the switch in format from Driving Home the Point was feedback from customers. Overwhelmingly, we heard that Driving Home the Point was not meeting the needs of the customer because it was too complex and hard to follow through on so families just weren’t doing it.  FamilyConnect was created to fill that void and meet that need. FamilyConnect is designed to be easy-to-do for busy parents. It can be done anywhere including in the car or on the run. It’s a simple conversation starter to help parents learn to talk about faith issues with their kids anytime/anywhere.

I think it’s great that you’ve been using Driving Home the Point for family devotions, and am sorry that the change in format doesn’t meet your need for Bible verses and devotions every day. I will definitely pass on your feedback for consideration as we plan for changes to FamilyConnect in future quarters.

Just wanted to stop by and express that we are also disappointed to learn that the 'Driving Home the Point" page has been discontinued.  In fact, DHtP was one of the key reason we selected Faithweaver as it fit so well with our mission to partner with parents and come along side them with support and resources.

We loved the fact that DHtP was ready to use as a daily Family Devotion tool for those families which have struggled in the past.  

I also have, on our first week, found some concerns about the website links provided on Home Connect.  One in particular, Bella Online, includes discussions of astrology, other religions etc.  While many families, including my own, would be fine with an " eat the meat, spit out the bones" approach I have to be sensitive to those families which would be upset with some of the content on that particular site.

Please count us as another vote for bringing back Driving Home the Point!
