"God loved us so much he wanted us to always be with him too. That's why God knew he'd need to give us Easter."
As Little Cub celebrates Easter with Papa, Mama, and her brother and sister, she begins to ask her papa questions about this very special day of the year. Papa lovingly explains God's plans for his children, while taking Little Cub on a memorable walk through her stunning Arctic world, and he shares how Easter came about in clear, simple terms that even the littlest cubs can understand.

Because God Loves Them Even More Than You Do
It's our instinct as parents to shield our children from harm. But our true responsibility is to raise children equipped to live well for God even in the midst of struggle. "Upside-Down Prayers for Parents "encourages us to pray for our children in ways we may never have before:
- I pray you'll get caught doing things wrong--and experience the power of confession.
- I pray your prayers will go unanswered--and you'll find a deeper trust in Him.
- I pray you'll fail in things that don't matter--and learn what matters to God.
- I pray you'll encounter battles--and discover that God is your greatest ally.
By turning our prayers "upside down," we not only learn to release our children to the care of God alone, we also uncover how our "own "desires need to be submitted to God's will.
Each entry in this thirty-one-day devotional includes a short reflection, a Scripture verse, and ideas to jump-start conversations between you and your child or teenager. Together you'll discover a deeper trust in God that will help you make it through the upside-down times with a right-side-up perspective.

As the sun rises on her snow-covered world, Little Cub wonders aloud...
"What is heaven like?"
With tender words, her Papa describes a wonderful place, free of sadness and tears, where God warmly welcomes his loved ones after their life on earth is over. Little Cub and Papa spend the day wandering their beautiful, invigorating arctic world while she asks all about God's home: "How do we get to heaven? Will we eat there?""Will I get to see you in heaven? "Papa patiently answers each question, assuring her that...
"Heaven will be full of everything good."
This gentle story provides satisfying answers for a young child's most difficult questions about what happens after this life, inviting "little cubs" to find comfort in knowing that "God Gave Us Heaven."
