My only (big) beef with this book is that the author consistently paraphrases the Bible, then puts the paraphrase in quotes. Perhaps that sounds nit picky, but then again we are talking about God's Word.
Good Doctrinal Study for Children Jan 15, 2007
This book has been a great tool in teaching our children the basic doctrines of the Bible. It takes you through What is sin? Why do we sin?, Who is God?, Who is Jesus?, How to become a Christian? Why do we go to church? and lots more. It has a brief story to read, scripture verses to look up, scripture verse to memorize, a prayer and sometimes a hymn to sing. This book is great for nighttime devotions. It is very easy to understand. A great book to use along with the Bible.
An excellent devotional Jan 11, 2007
We love this devotional!!! It explains issues like the trinity and other topics. It draws you closer to God and the Children learn more about God.
Perfect at home study for children Feb 24, 2006
I have purchased this book as a family devotional for the evenings. I have three little ones ages 7, 5, and 3, whom look forward to hearing the stories each night. It is an older book, however like many things, and oldie but goodie. Each chapter contains a story, scripture, memory verse and questions. I would highly recommend it, especially for those whom have kids ranging in age, as this book has something for everyone!
An exceptional book for teaching foundational Biblical truths to young ones Nov 1, 2005
This wonderful book overviews the entire scope of Biblical teachings, from a topical rather than an historical perspective. It is well-organized and explains Bible truths using illustrations and language that are very clear yet accurate for young children. Also, it explains Biblical doctrines in a way that is very oriented toward life rather than just an intellectual exercise.
It would be preferable if the artwork were slightly more up-to-date and the Bible verses and hymn excerpts were in easier language for younger children. But these are certainly not show-stoppers.
I was looking for a book to help me explain the basic truths of the Bible to our 6 and 5 y.o. in a way they could grasp clearly. For this purpose I don't think I could have found a better book than this.
