The Day by Day Bible is a wonderful way to teach children about Jesus. Each day has a new teaching from the Bible to help children learn about Jesus and His life.
Great illustrations that children will love. I personally love using these with my grandchildren and in teaching Sunday School.
The stand-up Day by Day Bible takes your child through the Bible; from the Old Testament through to the New Testament. As with the Day by Day With Jesus, the illustrations are something the children will enjoy and well rendered. I Personally like to use this with my Sunday School class to help reinforce my lessons.
Great product that anyone can use.

Open
A young woman dealing with a break up with her boyfriend receives a mysterious envelope that says "open written on the outside". Curious the woman (Emma) opens the envelope and reads the message: "For a real adventure with Jesus, go through the nearest open door." Emma is taken on a mysterious journey which opens her eyes to what means the most in her life.
Emma is led by Jesus through the gospels to find out what the Christian life is all about.
This is a very interesting book, it makes you think and understand what is the most important thing in your life. A relationship with Jesus and a love for God.
What would you do if you received this envelope? Would you open it? Would you be willing to walk through that open door?
Wonderfully written, this book will make you think and reread the gospels and maybe challenge your perception of the Gospels and what it really means to be a Christian.

Shadow of the Storm
From the back cover:
Having escaped Egypt with the other Hebrews during the Exodus, Shira is now living in freedom at the foot of Mt. Sinai, upon which rests the fiery glowing Cloud containing the shekinah glory of God. When the people disobey Yahweh and build a golden idol, the ensuing chaos gives Shira an unexpected opportunity to learn the arts of midwifery. Although her mother wishes for her to continue in the family weaving trade, Shira's gifts shine brightest when she assists with deliveries. In defiance of her mother, Shira pursues her heart's calling to become an apprentice midwife.
When a delivery goes horribly wrong, Shira finds herself bound to a man who betrayed her, the caretaker of three young children, and the target of a vengeful woman whose husband was killed by Shira's people, the Levites. As contention between the Hebrew tribes and the foreigners fans the flames of another dangerous rebellion, Shira will come face-to-face with the heartbreak of her past that she has kept hidden for so long. How can she let go of all that has defined her to accept the love she's denied herself and embrace who she truly is?
This book was an amazing read, I could not put it down. We are taken back to the time and culture when the Hebrews found their freedom from Egyptian slavery. Now free to worship their one true God.
In this story we see the struggle of one young woman release the pain of her past, and move forward to living the life and using the gifts that God has given her.
The story also gives us insight into what it may have been like to live in the time when Moses freed his people.
I enjoyed seeing how the main character had so much grace and forgiveness and love in her. It is something we can all model in ourselves.
I highly recommend this book and look forward to more books by this author.
Note from the Author
The Bible gives few details about the first year at Mt. Sinai, other than the Golden Calf incident, receiving the Law, and building the Tabernacle. My imagination was stirred by considering what it must have been like for Shira’s people; newly freed from slavery, wounded and demoralized from their time in Egypt, and unsure of who they were and who this God was that had freed them in such a miraculous, terrifying way. And throwing in old grudges among the tribes of Israel, the refusal of many to let go of the gods of Egypt, and the stirring of rebellion among the foreign contingent, I have little doubt it was a chaotic, confusing time for the people God was building into the new nation of Israel. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it!
