Bible resources come in handy when teaching your kiddos. The Gospel Story Bible is one of those resources. This Bible story book is based on the ESV translation.
I compared a few of the stories with my actual Bible and found them to be very close. I encourage you to compare it’s text with actual Scripture before teaching it to any age group, as with any Bible resource you use.
The length of the story would be just right for children 8 years old and up. While the stories are a little long for my 4 & 5 year olds at church to stayed tuned in to, the stories can still be used to help prepare your lesson for those youngsters. The pictures in the book would also come in handy on those days you are missing flannel board characters.
I find the questions at the end of each story could be easily adjusted to use with the younger crowd, while giving the older group some prompting to think about what they just read. I was even prompted to re-read the text (and Scripture) as I realized I didn’t know the entire story by heart!
Disclosure: I received a copy of the book in exchange for my post and review. See full book details here.
