For the past several weeks, Sunny and I have been reading the My First Message devotional Bible with our kids. I’ve written before about what a blessing Peterson’s work is to me. Now we get to share that blessing with our kids. If you’re looking for a good children’s Bible to read to your kids, I wholeheartedly recommend My First Message. The text is readable and easy for them to understand; the illustrations are excellent; and each Bible story has discussion questions, prayer exercises, and suggested family projects. It’s really great. My only beef so far: they completely skipped over the story of Abraham. We went straight from Noah to Jacob and Esau. I know parts of the Abraham story might get a little hairy for kids, but come on. How can you tell the story of God without Abraham? I dunno. Still, I think this is a great resource and I recommend it, especially if you have young children.
