Three themes, traced across all of Scripture

The three questions create a consistent thread that you can return to throughout the year to help kids keep the big picture story in mind.
God
Who is He? What is He like? What does He promise?
Me
Who am I? What does the Bible teach me about who I am?
Big
Plan
How does the whole story fit together? Where do I fit in?

Book Introductions

Each book of the Bible opens with a full-colour illustrated introduction that sets the scene before a child reads a single verse. These intros are especially helpful to give context for each Bible story within a classroom setting.

Content Boxes for 3 Big Themes
