My first review book this month for Tommy Nelson is God’s Good News Bible Storybook.
I grew up watching Billy Graham on TV. It seemed that most of the nation stopped for his broadcasts (or at least that was my perception).
As I grew older, I learned more about his ministry to presidents that spanned decades. My husband had the opportunity to go and apply for a position with his son at Samaritan Ministries.
September’s Tommy Nelson book selection included a beautiful book from Billy Graham.
Paul and I are always looking for ways to teach our little ones about God, how to pray, and about a life of faith.
I enjoy sharing books like this one since it is full of scripture.
Some quick facts about this book:
- There are 74 devotions, in this 192 page book.
- It has a beautiful, padded, glossy cover that would be a beautiful addition to a book shelf.
- It includes a dedication page, if you are choosing to give this book as a gift, and includes a satin bookmark.
- The devotions are broken into Old and New Testament selections.
- Each devotion is introduced with a selection from scripture, and then followed by thought-provoking words from Billy Graham.
- If you follow one of the Amazon links on the page, you can listen to a portion for free
From the back of God’s Good News Bible Storybook:
“Christianity is Good News…
When we open up the Bible,
it is Good News from cover to cover.
It’s the Good News that God loves us.”
