Discovering The Bible
$9.99
Learning how to read the Bible can (and should) be fun!
From Genesis to Revelation, kids can learn how to read their full-text Bibles for themselves, developing strong habits of spending time with God and building a foundation of biblical literacy they can continue to grow throughout their lives.
This book is a helpful and tested guide for developing wise reading strategies for all of Scripture. Discovering the Bible teaches kids that each book of the Bible is written a little differently–in various genres. Some books tell stories, others contain poetry, some are lists of laws or letters, and a few even reveal the future! Throughout this book, kids will learn things like . . .
*How to start reading the Bible with confidence
*How to read in light of the different genres found in Scripture
*The context and summary of every book in the Bible
*How to ask the right questions when reading a particular book
*How to practice studying the Bible in their daily lives (including a worksheet to guide kids each time they read a passage)
This book also contains a section to help parents and children’s ministry leaders develop strong disciples who are daily Bible readers. It includes:
*365 passages to practice the reading strategy throughout a year
*A time-tested 52-week plan for use in small group with content and activity outlines or in family discipleship to aid kids in learning the Bible
*104 key memory verses, two for each week of the year
Whether kids take this book to church, use it in their quiet time or homeschool curriculum, or simply read it on their own or with a parent or friend, Discovering the Bible is a reliable Bible study companion. It will set a foundation for kids to read the Bible better, and therefore, know and love God more.

When Holidays Hurt
$14.99Find fullness of joy during the holidays-especially for the brokenhearted.
Divorce. Financial stress. Chronic illness. Losing a loved one. Experiencing any of these situations during the year is already difficult. But the holiday season, once joyful and happy, can heighten this pain even more. Author Bo Stern has spent the past two Christmases struggling to connect with the joy of the season. As she has watched her husband, Steve, struggle with terminal ALS, Bo has quietly felt her spirit for the season fade-and has noticed countless others suffering the same way.
Through stories and scriptures, Bo offers readers a way to redeem what can often become painful days-Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays and anniversaries, milestones such as weddings and graduations, and more. At the end of each devotion, Bo gently guides readers to engage with these holidays and special occasions in different ways that offer a tangible outlet for healing. At the heart of this message is that Christ came-to bring hope and healing to those who are hurting.
“Jesus didn’t come to cheer us up. He came into the shadowlands we call home to set us free. He came to untangle us from the despair that wraps itself around our joy and peace and purpose. It seems, then, that hopelessness is the very first qualification for receiving the bright hope of Christ’s coming. Perhaps you are exactly where you need to be to experience the miracle after all…”
