• Historically accurate depictions of Jesus and God’s people, including original Hebrew and Greek names
• Lifelong lessons that make it a perfect gift!
Reviews
“Biblical stories presenting a moving message, contemplative questions, and captivating illustrations.”—Kirkus Reviews“One of the reasons I’m excited about The Book of Belonging is because I share a passionate vision for freeing Scripture from some of the limiting expressions to which it has been confined.”—Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room
“The Book of Belonging is one of the most important projects coming our way. If we can show our kids a more inclusive world, then maybe we won’t have to spend so much time unlearning as adults, and that excites me.”—Brit Barron, pastor, comedian, author of Worth It and Do You Still Talk to Grandma?
“If the Bible has been weaponized against you but you long to love it, I cannot possibly recommend this highly enough.”—Erin Moon, host of the Faith Adjacent podcast
“As a pastor, I love the Bible. Unfortunately, too many people uncritically endorse and assume whiteness and uncritically glorify violence. I’m excited by The Book of Belonging’s vision for a fresh story Bible that is more inclusive and contemplative.”—Sean Isaac Palmer, pastor, author, Enneagram teacher
“The Book of Belonging is unlike any children’s Bible I have read. As a parent, I love that the stories are engaging and participative for children and parents alike. As a Bible scholar, I appreciate that the stories remain faithful to the original context and key themes of the biblical narratives. With its beautiful storytelling and its strong academic foundation, this book is truly a gift for families who have tried and failed to find a thoughtful—and solidly researched—children’s Bible.”—Jennifer Garcia Bashaw, professor of New Testament Studies, Campbell University, and Nerd-in-Residence, The Bible for Normal People Expand reviews
