Book Review: God's Good News

Book Description

“Christianity is Good News. . . . When we open up the Bible it is Good News from cover to cover. It’s the Good News that God loves us.” —Billy Graham

No one has brought the Good News to more people than the Reverend Billy Graham, and the people who admire him span all generations. This Bible storybook will be a timeless classic for parents and grandparents to give a new generation of children the Good News; to show them the way to the cross; and to help them begin a lifetime of following Christ.

God’s Good News Bible Storybook is a collection of over 60 favorite Bible stories—including Noah, Joseph, Moses, David, Jesus, and the disciples—and each is equipped with a takeaway devotion from Rev. Graham.The takeaways will help children focus on God’s Word, apply it to their lives, and begin walking with God and sharing the Good News from an early age. The striking artwork from Scott Wakefield will help children connect with the timeless Bible stories and messages from Rev. Graham.

My Review:

This is a bigger book with many old and new testament stories. The stories are told and then Billy Graham has included his thoughts on the story. The paragraph from Billy is often times questions to make you think more in detail about the story and how we can apply it to our lives today.

I think since some of the stories are longer that this would be better for kids in the 7-10 range.

Overall, my kids are enjoying this bible before bed. It will be a great addition to your night time routine.
