I Need to Trust in God #3

by Joel R. Beeke, Mary Beeke

Age Range 4 to 7 years
Full color illustrated books for children
See how Sophie understands how the love of God draws her to love Him. Caleb and Sophie are your average kids - curious about their world, taught about the character and expectations of God, and wanting to be faithful in what they do. In each of these books the concepts of faith, hope, love, and love for others is distilled down to simple forms and then introduced in ways a child will understand - conversation, prayer, actions, and thoughts. Sophie and Caleb react in ways that you would expect in a child - with simple faith and the sort of fruit of the Spirit you expect in young children.

Reviews

[Daniel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good series, well illustrated, laconic to the point that the pictures are necessary to explain the actions (which I kinda like). Parents would also do well to explain stuff about prayer, repentance, sin, etc, but are afforded helpful opportunities to do so. The children in the book pray using "thee" language, which is... odd. Still, the book is good and helpful all things considered.

Simple and biblical. Great series for children.
