Description
When you want to get to know someone, where do you start? Usually you start with learning their name.
God knows this too - and He doesn't have just one name to share with us, either! The Bible gives us many names for God and tells us what each one means. When we learn a name for God that we had not heard before, we learn a great deal that's new about Him to us, too!
This book is for you and your children to read together. Every chapter will teach them something new about who God is. Colorful illustrations throughout the book. For ages: 8-12 (read on your own) or 4-7 (read aloud to).
"Sally Michael has done us a great service in writing God's Names, that we may tell our children not only that God is, but who He is." -- Tim Challies
"God's Names is one of the most important books for Christians parents to own and use." -- Bruce Ware, author of Big Truths for Young Hearts
"In our attempts to pass the baton of truth on to the next generation, nothing could be more important than for our children (and their parents!) to be grounded in their understanding of the character and ways of God. God’s Names is a wonderful, Scripture-saturated resource for those who desire to plant seeds of faith in the hearts and minds of the children they love and influence." -- Nancy Leigh DeMoss, author and Revive Our Hearts radio host
