Good News for You Child and Parent Devotional A.R.C. - Scott Middleton - Bog

Parents are the most influential adults in their children's lives, and are therefore the best presenters of God's plan of salvation. This parent-and-child devotional empowers parents to share the gospel of Jesus Christ by pairing scripture with simple but powerful illustrations. Playing off the letter U, the book explains how we are vessels designed by God to be filled by God himself. Through our own free choice, however, we allow ourselves to be filled with the evils of this world. Scott's illustrations make the problem abundantly clear. And the solution is brilliantly simple: "Christ in you, the hope of glory." (Colossians 1:27 NIV). The 55 illustrations in the book visualize Biblical truth and explain complicated theological terms like "atonement." Parent-friendly discussion questions and answers empower the parents to lead their children through the forty-five-day devotional on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Sixty-one kid-friendly definitions, written on a third-grade reading level, make the devotional simple but powerful. The lyrics from ten classic Christian hymns and over 250 scriptures inspire the child and parent to believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Now, children can understand who they are, the corruption of the world, Satan, God, and God's purpose for their lives. Twelve years in the making, the Good News For You books are the ones Scott wishes his parents would have read to him when he was a child.
