So in love...

...with this children's Bible because has made me fall more in love with God.

After reading this post by Angie Smith at "Bring the Rain," I just had to get The Jesus Storybook Bible. I had tears in my eyes and a tug in my spirit after reading just the introduction!!!

The Bible presents Scripture in a way that's different from other children's Bibles that I've encounted. It's focus is on love - specifically that the Bible is God's love story to and with each one of us.

It reminded me of some of the insights I'd received from reading John Eldredge and Brent Curtis' The Sacred Romance (a book and workbook I highly recommend). These two authors, present the concept that the Bible is the greatest adventure book/romance novel/fairy tale ever written and helps us to think about how God might see the whole picture.

I don't think I'm doing either of these books justice...if you check them out for yourself, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Just leave a comment with this post. :)

Happy reading!
