My Son just love this book every night I read it to him and this has been one of his favorites. As early as now its good to introduce our faith and beliefs to our children and this book did a great job on doing so, the illustrations are magnificent and my kids were able to familiarize himself with the animals plants present on this book. I recommend this to every mother's out there, also this acts as a bonding way with your kids every night.
The David C. Cook Journey through the Bible is a unique resource that approaches the Bible story by story. In these pages you will discover around 250 of your favorite Bible stories presented with background information in word and picture.

This book is excellent. It was written well and covered a lot of ground with interesting insights and comments. I recommend it to all who have an interest in the Bible. For those of you who have little interest, read it and you will learn and find show more interesting things you never dreamed of.

Excellent, comprehensive, and very readable walk through the Bible. Anyone interested in understanding the story within the Bible will find this book a fascinating read. It was so informative, and inspirational.

Wish I could give it more stars...great insights and very interesting! Truly fascinating, very good reading, and makes me love to read the Bible.

I completely understand why this book is out of print. The is a mean squirrel who is just a grump. He has to learn to be a friend and a neighbor. At the very beginning of the book is a note to parents that this book was for all the good christians who want to learn to live happily together. Ughhh. Not for me.
In this honest and sensitive new book, Gil Beers shares of his own pain and sorrow over the sudden death of his son to give you counsel and comfort, Turn Your Hurts Into Healing will help you reach out with love and, in the process, find new reasons to pursue life. "Now I think I have discovered something. Wounding, hurts, mourning can easily lead to despair and depression. Bun on the other hand, they also can lead to healing. Woundedness or brokenness can leave us limp and lifeless, crying show more for ourselves and our unwanted circumstances. Or we can let woundedness and brokenness release our own inner beauty and fragrance, but even more the greater beauty and fragrance in us for the healing of those we touch. The margin of difference for me is the degree to which I allow Jesus to be my Life, in me and through me. show less
