measured pace, and pauses that children experience in the Godly
Play (R) circle or a supplement to any child's bookshelf. Silence

external-that children need in today's frenzied world. Godly Play

silence during entering, the lesson, wondering, art and material
responses, the feast, and saying good-bye. This companion to the

Play rooms as well as other formation settings for children: homes,

'I can't see! It's dark everywhere. What place is this? Where am
I?' Jeya was only four years old and was terrified as she tried to
peer about the dark and gloomy temple. Between the pillars was a
huge stone body. She shivered when she saw its face. This, she
knew, was Kali, the goddess of death and destruction. Why was Jeya
there? Who would leave a little girl in the dark like that?
Certainly not the God of love - he sent a woman to rescue these
children from destruction - Amy Carmichael. And she had been a
little girl herself once a little girl with long dark hair, and
deep brown eyes. Once she had even begged God to make them blue -
but he hadn't. And as Amy leaned over to pick little Jeya up and
rescue her from a life of temple-slavery - she was very glad that
God hadn't listened to her prayers. Blue eyes were not the eyes of
India - but Amy's brown eyes were.

As girls enter their tween and teen years, it's especially
important for them to have an open and growing relationship with
their father. Unfortunately, this is often the time when parental
relationships are strained. "The One Year Father-Daughter
Devotions" can foster communication and understanding; and it's a
wonderful way for a father to bond with his daughter during a
crucial point in her life. Each of the 365 devotions begins with an
introductory story, then daddy-daughter time provides discussion
questions, activities, or other practical applications of the daily
lesson. A "What's the Word" section gives a related Bible verse to
help bring God's Word alive as father and daughter apply the
Scripture to their lives. Written by three fathers, the devotions
have a tone that is conversational and relatable: the authors use
everything from flavored potato chips to the Etch-A-Sketch game to
share truths about God's Word and to help fathers and daughters
relate to each other.
