A delightful reminder of the constant presence and protecting grace
of God, Beyond Yet Still With You will be a blessing for anyone who
has ever felt distant from God. Whether you are shopping for a gift
for a child or a book to bring comfort to someone who is hurting,
"Beyond" can bring a word of peace and joy to readers and
listeners. Sometimes we need to hear a calm voice. Nighttime noises
and daytime surprises can cause anytime tears and fears. We need a
word of comfort.This book is ideal in those moments. Perfect for
bedtime reading, gifting to a hurting friend, helping with
counselling or just reading for pleasure, "Beyond Yet Still With
You" brings the reader words and pictures of joy, peace and
comfort. Handling difficult concepts (like figuring out where God
is, or wondering if God cares when I am hurt) is challenging.
"Beyond" breaks it down into simple terms: God is Beyond, but He is
still with us. He is beneath, over, through, in, and above us. We
are under His care. Because He is everywhere, He is here and we can
have peace. "Beyond Yet Still With You" teaches us that God does
sometimes seem distant from us. He is so far from us, so "beyond,"
as to seem inaccessible. God transcends creation. He is Lord of
Heaven. But He is also Lord of the earth. Though He is distant, at
the same time He is close at hand. He is a nearby powerful friend,
an ever-present help in times of trouble. He isimmanent. This book
by father/daughter team Steve Jameson, the author, and Erin Brown,
the artist, combines peaceful poetry, original Scripture
translations and vibrant illustrations into a single work that
explores this "near but far paradox" of God's character. Readers
and listeners old and young will be reminded that God delights in
His people. He protects us with His power. He comforts us with His
presence. He watches out for us when we are out on a limb, walking
through puddles and going to bed. We can be encouraged by the
teachings of this book to understand we are safe because God is
transcendent yet involved, distant yet immanent. He is over all,
yet He is personally involved. He is "Beyond, Yet Still With You."
The book is available in several languages (English, Haitian Creole
and Japanese, with versions in French, Spanish, and other languages
in the works) and multiple formats (illustrated poem book, coloring
book, 13-lesson extended version "Teacher's Kit," and student
handouts). The project also includes audio CD and a video DVD as
well as a "coloring book" app for your mobile device. It is perfect
for counseling settings, VBS, Home School and Sunday School. Gift
yourself, your child or a friend with this gift bringing personal
peace.
