As children learn who God is and who God says they are, they will be reminded over and over that God calls us Beloved, Belonging, and Delightful.Inside these pages, you will find:Forty-two Bible stories: twenty stories from the Old Testament and twenty-two from the New TestamentGorgeous art: Rich, vibrant illustrations illuminating every pageInclusivity: Jesus depicted in a historically accurate way, God in an expansive way, and the people of God in an equitable, empathetic wayWonder Moments: a recurring feature that invites kids to bring curiosity to ScriptureMindful Moments: prompts that encourage contemplative practices like solitude, silence, and stillness.Parents, grandparents, teachers, and ministers know that the stories we tell children are deeply formative. They stir their imaginations, shape their character, and inform their self-understanding. In this special Bible storybook, readers will see that when it comes to the love of God, everyone belongs.
