My First Message A Devotional Bible for Kids

Here's an illustrated devotional Bible designed especially for four- to eight-year-olds. The contemporary "Message" translation and captivating artwork by former Disney animators enrich a child's devotional experience.

My First Message uses a time-tested practice of lectio divina—or "spiritual reading"—a simple but powerful practice used by Christians for centuries to deepen their devotional lives.

A unique devotional Bible designed to encourage parent-child interaction, My First Message introduces children to God's Word through the best-selling Message Bible text, lively illustrations, short lessons, and a format that considers a small attention span. Much more than a storybook, it's an easy and fun way for parents to teach their children about God's Word and learn a lifelong devotional method.

Features include:

• A unique devotional Bible for children ages 4 to 8
• An illustrated design
• Each story designed to be read in 10-15 minutes
• Durable casebound cover
• Fun activities for parents and children
