This is a title from one of our favorite authors (check out reviews of Treasures of the Snow, Rainbow Garden, and others). This book, however, is different from her other titles we have reviewed up to this point. It is set up to be an excellent devotion for a child or to read as a family, delivering truth through a series of short stories. The title is actually organized around the Apostle’s Creed, taking individual points and crafting stories around it. We find out in the prologue that this is actually a collection of a lifetime of stories told by the writer compiled together. After each story is a set of verse, questions and notes to really help drive the key point home and make sure young readers don’t miss the life-changing truth.
To make things even better, the stories are really good! We see stories on radical forgiveness, grace, redemptions/salvation, the removal of separation from God the Father through Jesus, God coming Himself as the solution to our problem, God’s glory in Jesus and many, many more. This is theology delivered in small, easy to understand, really entertaining stories.
This is one we HIGHLY Recommend for your family.
