Burn* your kids’ Bible storybooks . . .

. . . and get the one pictured/linked here. Seriously fantastic stuff.

Unless, of course, you like your kids learning their Bible stories as simplistic, poorly-illustrated morality plays with absolutely no connection to the person and work of Jesus, that is.  Then, by all means, keep the one you have.

Zoë’s loving hers, and so are Mommy and Daddy.

(* Feeding to the dog or shredding for use as rodent bedding are acceptable substitutes for burning.)

We got that book for our girls a few months ago and we are now starting our third time through it. Fantastic stuff.

Amen! We just started our 2nd time through with the boys. They love it. I’m going to make it required reading for leadership training at the church from now on. Seriously. It’s the best introduction to Biblical theology, Covenant theology and a Christ-centered hermeneutic I’ve ever encountered.

Check out Big Truths for Little People from Crossway: http://www.amazon.com/Big-Truths-Little-Kids-Teaching/dp/1581341067

Click the “Look inside link” and check out pages 1-4. It’s a good way to dip a families toe (or maybe foot) into the waters of catechizing.
