Our Great God helps children understand how great and good God is and to remember Psalm 95:3: "For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods."
There are so many things to sing about things that make us happy or excited, even things that make us sad. But the greatest reason to sing is when we think about God! God is a great God! Everything that we know and love about God should make us want to sing about him!
In Our Great God, Sally Michael helps parents to instruct the mind, engage the heart, and influence the will of their children as they learn a new scripture. Each page shows pictures and asks questions to engage them in understanding the verse. Repetition of the verse throughout the book helps children memorize the Bible verse (ESV) after just a few readings. Also included are pointers for helping children memorize scripture and suggestions for activities that will reinforce "Living by the Word."
"As important as it is to help our young children memorize key Scripture verses, it also makes a big difference if they are led to think deeply and clearly about what those verses mean! This new series of short and attractive books, Bible Verses to Remember, helps parents and Christian workers accomplish both goals. They focus on verses that express truths central to our Christian faith and the questions and narrative show what these verses mean and how important they are to our lives. What a gift to our children!"
Bruce A. Ware, Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

"Sally Michael and Sengsavane Chounramany have created a visual feast to nourish children's souls. Michael features one bedrock verse per book, explaining what it means and why it matters. In so doing, she helps children experience the benefits of meditating on God's Word. Simple but not simplistic, the Bible Verses to Remember books teach children how to understand and apply God's Word to their own lives. They're brimming with life-transforming truths about God in words children can understand. Delightful, vibrant illustrations serve the prose, all for the purpose of leading children to faith. A feast for the eyes and the soul."

This cute new series from Sally Michael teaches little ones (aged 3-7) truths about God while also helping them start to memorise bible verses. Eye catching and cheery illustrations by Sengsavane Chounramany will engage kids and caregivers alike. Our Great God shares the truth of Psalm 95:3 “For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods” - exploring everything God knows and how we praise him with thankfulness.
This book uses a very simple but concrete way to show kids the meaning of the “great” God. I enjoy the ending of this book: When we know that God knows everything and takes care of everything, it makes us give thanks and glory to God. This is called worship.
This book and another from new growth are among my one-year-old granddaughter's favorite books. I do find that I need to verbally edit the text to shorten it for her very short attention span. She especially is delighted with the colorful pictures on each page. This is one of the books that she pulls off the shelf every day to be read. And the content that our God is great. Is it a delightful content to introduce her to at age one.
