Moon Is Always Round
$16.99

Even young children want answers to the hard questions about God and suffering. In The Moon Is Always Round, seminary professor and author Jonathan Gibson uses the vivid imagery of the moon to explain to children how God’s goodness is always present, even when it might appear to be obscured by upsetting or difficult circumstances.

In this beautiful, two-color illustrated book, he allows readers to eavesdrop on the conversations he had with his young son in response to his sister’s death. Father and son share a simple liturgy together that reminds them that, just as the moon is always round despite its different phases, so also the goodness of God is always present throughout the different phases of life.

A section in the back of the book offers further biblical help for parents and caregivers in explaining God’s goodness to children. Jonathan Gibson reminds children of all ages that God’s goodness is present in the most difficult of times, even if we can’t always see it.

When God Makes Scribbles Beautiful
$14.99

Sometimes, hard things happen. Sometimes, they happen to children. According to the National Survey of Children’s Health, over 34 million children have experienced one or more types of adverse childhood experiences or potentially traumatic events that occur in childhood.

When God Makes Scribbles Beautiful helps kids trust that God can take even the hardest things and make them beautiful. This picture book imagines that the hard things in a child’s life is a scribble following him everywhere. The child can’t get rid of the scribble, no matter how hard he tries. Over time, he realizes that God is with him even though the scribble is there too. Eventually, God turns the boy’s scribble into something beautiful: like a cloud in the sky or a steppingstone that leads him somewhere amazing.

Ultimately, When God Makes Scribbles Beautiful gives young readers spiritual encouragement to plant seeds of hope in the face of difficult childhood experiences.

“He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also put eternity in their hearts, but no one can discover the work God has done from beginning to end.” – Ecclesiastes 3:11

Fruit Of The Spirit
$9.99

Helping your child understand the fruit of the Spirit through the life of Jesus.

In this 30-page, full-color book, your child will understand the fruit of the Spirit. Many children’s books have been written on this wonderful subject. However, this presentation is from a different and unique perspective.

First, your child will learn the fruit of the Spirit: the nine different aspects of the character of God expressed by the Holy Spirit in the lives of God’s people. Second, these characteristics will be identified in the life of the Lord Jesus. By sharing situations when the Son of God manifested love, joy, peace and other fruit of the Spirit, your child will be encouraged to develop the same traits. So stories about the Lord Jesus will be a major emphasis.

This, and the other books in this series, are a powerful way for you and your child to connect as you discuss the things of God.

Questions will be answered like:
*What are the nine fruit of the Spirit?
*What are some of the ways Jesus manifested the fruit of God’s Spirit?
*How do I grow that same fruit in me?
*If God’s Spirit lives in me, what is the first fruit that should be evident to others?
