The best-selling author of 'When God Made You' and 'When I Pray for
You' captures the wonder of Christmas in a lyrical exploration of
what makes the season so colourful, magical, and personal to our
hearts. In his trademark style, Matthew Paul Turner celebrates the
Christmas season, particularly the colours that come with the
holiday and all the memorable sensations connected to those bright
hues. Christmas is RED. It's a bright shiny sled. It's candy canes,
and toy store lanes. It's sprinkles on sweet bread. It's packages
with bows, And Rudolph's bright red nose It's pictures drawn And
dressed-up lawns And warm mittens when it snows. Matthew surrounds
his readers into a whirling ribbon of the familiar reds and greens,
and also other festive hues, including white, gold, blue, and
brown. All the colours come together when readers are reminded that
Christmas is YOU, that the holidays are nothing without being with
the people we love,celebrating traditions, and making new
memories--in vivid colour.
Psalm 23 introduces young children to one of the most beloved

my shepherd..." For generations, believers have sought hope and

faithfulness, protection, and provision as they identify basic

When a Single Book is Not Enough Look at everything around you -
most things take time to happen. Who were the people who got some
of these things started? What motivated and energised them to keep
going? If you have ever been to Cornwall in England, you will have
seen its beautiful beaches, quaint villages, and wild moors, but
less obvious is its past tin mining industry. The miner's life was
rough one, and one of those men had a dramatic encounter with God
which changed everything for him, and then also for those around
him. What about an ordinary man who starts a mission to university
students and ends up employing 19,000 staff in 190 countries, now
reaching out to athletes, politicians and so many more. Then there
is the evangelist who preached to 80 million people in 185
countries, was friends with world leaders and became a household
name - can you guess who it is? If you have ever watched one of the
many 'Westerns' featuring cowboys and Indians, they will have left
out the work of reaching out to the many native American Indian
tribes in the 1700s - now you can fill in the missing parts of the
story. Lastly there is a teenage girl who while out with friends
having fun, dives into a beautiful pond, only to hit a rock and end
up paralysed from the neck down. For someone with no personal
mobility, she has accomplished far more than most people who have
it. Sometimes we need to reach out and stretch ourselves to try
something new. You may not be the first, but then again, you just
might be. You Will Meet... Billy Bray discovers true happiness in
Jesus Christ and his legacy to the Cornish people included lively
preaching, newly built chapels and true revivals. Billy was saved
from the deepest pit. Bill Bright's story is a tale of a scruffy
rancher's son would head one of the biggest missions that the world
had ever known - Campus Crusade. Read the story of a man who loved
Jesus above all else. Billy Graham was sixteen when he first
preached the gospel. He has now preached to over 80 million people
in 185 countries. The message is timeless, full of hope and Christ
centred. David Brainerd's life on the American frontier in the
early 1700s was difficult. David Brainerd was one of the first
missionaries to the various Indian tribes there - a risky situation
to be in. Joni Eareckson Tada's story is not just about a tragic
accident. It is about how God's power transforms lives. Joni's work
today with thousands of disabled people is a miracle in itself.

An illustrated reader retelling the story of three friends standing
strong against bowing down to King Nebuchadnezzar's golden statue
even though they would be thrown into a fire. But God cares and
stood with them, helping them to have courage. A reassuring story
to help young children talk to parents or those who care for them
about situations when they need courage to face hard things, new
situations and doing the right thing, and that God can help make us
brave. The 'God cares' series provides a Biblical approach to
discussing emotions and behaviour with children to nurture an
attitude of wellness. Children at different ages approach things
differently in their stages of emotional development, so this
series works at two different levels: illustrated Readers aimed at
5-7 year olds and Chapter books aimed at 8+ years. Please note that
children progress at different reading abilities and stages of
emotional development so the age ranges are only a guide for
parents and carers. The Bible stories are retold reflecting on the
emotions and encourages children to discuss and relate this within
their situations. Sections at the back provide a reflective space
for children and practical advice for parents and carers. Debbie
Duncan, author of The Art of Daily Resilience and Brave, is a nurse
and a teacher, and mother of four children. She has considerable
insight into what constitutes resilience and bravery: the ability
to cope, to stay on course, to bounce back. In her books she
considers what is required for physical, mental, and spiritual
durability, interweaving biblical teaching, prayers, with personal
anecdote and sound advice. This she now applies specifically to
support parents and carers raising children.
