Book Review: "Bible Gems to Remember" Devotions for kids

About the Book:
Enhanced with beautiful gemstone photographs throughout, Bible Gems to Remember Devotions for Kids gives readers 52 devotions—one for each week of the year—to read, reflect upon, and put into practice. By the end of the year, children will have learned more than 52 easy-to-memorize Scripture verses!
Bible Gems to Remember Devotions for Kids, written by Robin Schmitt, shows how God can accomplish amazing things with just a few words. Scripture is filled with “gemstones”—concise statements of five words or less that hold great value, meaning, and power. This photo-driven devotional includes 52 of these special Bible gems to memorize as well as additional gems to ponder at the end of the devotion.
Bible Gems to Remember Devotions for Kids:
  • Includes 52 devotions, one for each week of the year, enhanced with beautiful gemstone photos that encourage children to memorize Scripture
  • Is creatively based on Scripture “gemstones” that are concise statements of five words or less that hold great value, meaning, and power
  • Features a gorgeous cover that sparkles and shines

My Review:  I love this little devotional because the as my kids get older we can start to get more books with less pictures.   This devotional is great for those preteen, tween ages.   It is easy to read and the lessons within are easy to apply and relevant for that generation! The gems just like the illustrated Bible have short memory verses.   
We also love the variety of gems and rocks that they used in this devotional.  They are pretty and eye catching even though the pages are less visual then the Illustrated "Gems to Remember."  I love that my family has both this and the "Bible Gems to Remember Illustrated Bible"   I already wrote that review so check it out!   
What I really like besides the easy to memorize gems of scripture verses, I like that each easy to read story does make you stop and reflect and think.   If my can teach my children to slow down and listen to the Father above then I'm doing my job!   


Thank you Zondervan for sending me this book for free in exchange for an honest review.  I was not paid for this and all opinions expressed are my own!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Timeless Truth Bible - Blogger Review #timelesstruths #biblegram #bible #Christianbookstagram

About this Bible: The Christian faith is founded upon an unchanging and unceasing confession: that “Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11). This is the confession upon which all our hope, and all our joy, rests. The  Timeless Truths Bible  will encourage you in this truth through the wisdom of those who came before us with: Devotional notes and commentary from trusted theologians and pastors from the second century up to the twentieth to stir your affections. Ancient creeds and confessions of the faith to grow your understanding of what we believe—and have always believed. Artwork made throughout the history of Christianity to deepen your worship of God. My Review: I have a full house often being a pastor and now that we have a bonus daughter with us she is the blessed one to receive this Bible.  She has been desiring a bible to take notes in so when she saw margins she was pretty excited.  Then with the leather she was more exci...
