Hallo Liefsteling!

Ontmoet vir Mieliepit: ’n baie pittige troetelhoender van Bloemfontein. ’n Bietjie lui (sal sy self erken), en baie lief vir gesels, skryf sy die allersnaakste briewe aan ene Liefsteling. Sy vertel stories oor Jaco en Janet, die twee kinders in die huis, en alles wat hulle aanvang.

Soos alle broers en susters baklei hulle soms lelik, en soos alle kinders vertel hulle soms nie heeltemal die waarheid nie. Gelukkig is Mieliepit altyd daar om hulle te help. Elke storie bevat ’n bietjie pitkos om die leser te laat nadink, sowel as ’n Bybelgedeelte om verder te gaan lees, en ’n gebed wat die leser kan bid. Party storiebriewe het selfs aktiwiteite vir die lesers om te doen.

Hierdie eerste kinderboek uit LUCA se stal is uit die pen van geliefde kinderboekskrywer Fanie Viljoen, en is pragtig geïllustreer deur Megan Bird.

What are the treasures in Benjamin's Box? Come along with Benjamin and see. Like all boys and girls, Benjamin is very, very curious.

At last, he learns the good news---news that every child (and grown-up!) will want to share. Can be used in conjunction with Resurrection Eggs from Family Life!

Dit kan ’n uitdaging wees om daaglikse stiltetyd ’n gewoonte te maak vir kinders. Maar om die Bybel te lees, of ons dit saam doen of alleen, en of ons jonk of oud is, help ons om God te leer ken en te weet wat sy wil vir ons is. Familie Storiebybel-oordenkings maak Bybellees ’n fees vir kinders tussen 6 en 10.

Al word die Bybelstories oorvertel vir ’n jonger gehoor, is dit gebaseer op amptelike, vertroude Bybelvertalings, en daar is deurgaans verwysings na waar die storie in die Bybel gekry kan word. Die 365 stories het elkeen ’n prikkelende gedagte of vraag, asook ’n gebed om kinders en volwassenes te help om die boodskap van die Bybel hul eie te maak.

Familie Storiebybel-oordenkings is ideaal vir huisgodsdiens, of kinders kan dit self in hul stiltetyd gebruik. As jy die oordenkings in Bybelvolgorde wil lees, kan die indeks agterin jou help om dit maklik op te spoor.

To our loving Creator, the beautiful world that he made was always incomplete without one very special piece-you.

Christ was chosen before the world was made. 1 Peter 1:20

Even before the sun and the moon shone for the first time, before the first cows ever moooed and the first monkeys ever climbed! Before Adam and Even took their first walk in the Garden of Eden, God had a plan for Christmas.

From the beginning of time, God had a plan to save his children. That plan was Jesus!

Jesus Calling®: The Story of Christmas is a durable board book that will hold up for even the most active families. Families who love Jesus Calling® will love adding The Story of Christmas to their collection.
