Mighty Acts of God: A Family Bible Story Book

Starr Meade

$29.99

"Do as David did. Don't do as Saul did. Follow this Old Testament person, but not that New Testament person." That's what you may find in many Bible story books. In Mighty Acts of God, Starr Meade takes a new approach to teaching the Bible to elementary school aged children: she focuses not on characters in Scripture, but on God. Each of the ninety Bible stories included focus on a particular character trait or truth about God, emphasizing that God is the main character in every Bible story.

Each story in Mighty Acts of God is retold in lively, modern-day language from a Reformed perspective, and is followed by an application section with several discussion-sparking questions and prayer points. By moving chronologically through both the Old and New Testaments, parents and children glimpse the person of God as one of consistency, vibrancy, passion, and love.

Get a Clue Devotions

Mark Littleton

$15.75

A fun devotional for children ages 8-12 that uses various characters solving mysteries to help kids gain insight and understanding of the greater mystery: how to walk responsibly and happily with Jesus Christ.

While there are many devotionals for preteens, this is unique in its approach. It uses fictional characters and stories to illuminate Scripture (similar to other devotionals). However, in those devotionals, the fictional stories are unique and final in each reading. In this devotional, one story goes through seven readings, each week having a theme, title, and story flow. These daily cliffhangers keep kids wanting more. Also, the use of mysteries makes for an exciting differentiation from other related products.

This product uses one segment of a mystery a day (which will lead to the resolution of one mystery a week) for an entire year to draw kids in to learn more about walking with Christ. This unique format will pique the interest of kids who may not otherwise be motivated to read the Bible.
