In this vibrant picture book adventure, the authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller What Is God Like? invite children to learn about the Bible—what it tells us about God and what God says about us!
Children have been wondering about the Bible for centuries. What do all these long-ago stories have to do with each other—and with me? This whimsical and lyrical book, inspired by the work and ideas of the late Rachel Held Evans and completed by her good friend Matthew Paul Turner, explains that the Bible is a big library of amazing stories about God, the world, and Jesus. When you read those stories, you will understand the world differently—and you can make the world different too.
What Is the Bible? is a spectacular journey, guiding children to see how God's story and our own lives are delightfully intertwined. Kids and parents alike will see that God's story is big enough to be found all over the world and close enough to find in our own hearts.
It’s a big book that’s filled with all kinds of stories.
Some of the stories are scary. Some are funny. Some are strange and mysterious.
And some of them are beautiful, the kind that will fill you up with wonder and hope.
Now, imagine if God put all those stories in one place.
That’s what the Bible is, a huge library you can hold in your hands.
Matthew Paul Turner is a photographer, speaker, and author of numerous books, including the bestselling When God Made You, When I Pray for You, and What Is God Like?.View titles by Matthew Paul Turner
