Psalm 78:4–7: Telling God's Deeds to Children
Psalm 78:4–7 makes the telling of God's deeds a covenant charge with a forward aim: that children might know, hope in God, and obey. Children's ministry is remembrance aimed at trust, not a craft plus a moral.
Psalm 78:1–8: Telling God's Deeds to Children
Family devotions are not an optional extra for unusually diligent parents. Psalm 78 presents the telling of God's words and deeds as a covenant obligation handed from one generation to the next, aimed at hope in God and obedient hearts.
