Can a Bedtime Story Actually Change Your Life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is easy to forget Jesus in the midst of frantic schedules, family squabbles, and conflicting priorities. But the truth is that he is the hero of every story, including these ordinary ones. This is why Marty Machowski puts God’s plan of salvation in Christ on continuous display in The Gospel Story Bible<\/em>. The easy-to-read storybook introduces your family to many captivating people, places, and events from the Bible’s Old and New Testaments, showing how each one ultimately points to Jesus.<\/p>\n

I could speak at length about how much I recommend Marty Machowski’s books to churches – and indeed I do, along with books from a long list of other authors. But Marty’s resources for families and children also appear on a far shorter list that places them in a more significant category for me – they are books that I actually use in my home. Again, Marty has provided us with a God-centered, Scripture-grounded, gospel-driven resource that orients the minds of children toward the wondrous works of God.” –\u00a0Timothy Paul Jones, Ph.D.\u00a0Associate Professor of Family Ministry, Southern Seminary; editor of The Journal of Family Ministry.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As you share these Bible stories together, you and your family will meet Jesus and learn a new, life-changing way of recognizing Christ as the hero of every story. Vibrant illustrations by A. E. Macha, child-friendly discussion questions, and Scripture references accompany each narrative to help you lead your family in exploring the Bible. You will be delighted to discover how easily even a young child can understand the original text of a story that he or she has already come to love. Ideal as a storybook for your preschooler, a devotional for your grade school student, a refresher for the adult believer, or an introduction for the new one, The Gospel Story Bible <\/em>is also a companion to Long Story Short: Ten-Minute Devotions to Draw Your Family to God<\/em> and the Gospel Story<\/em> Sunday School curriculum.<\/p>\n

Other Endorsements<\/strong><\/p>\n

More good news for parents (and grandparents)! Marty Machowski has once again delivered an excellent resource to help us lead children spiritually. The Gospel Story Bibleexplains the storyline of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation in 156 chapters, with vivid illustrations and thoughtful discussion questions for each reading. I fully anticipate that as you read this to your children (or grandchildren), you will be amazed together at the grace of God revealed in Scripture.” –\u00a0C.J. Mahaney, Sovereign Grace Church of Louisville<\/p>\n

If you want your children to grow up loving the Bible, then introduce them to The Gospel Story Bible. Here you have a simple, readable, understandable, and engaging account of 156 of the most powerful stories in the Bible. Every story is of manageable size, and even the most energetic child will be able to remain attentive for an entire story. In fact, you may be pleasantly surprised that your children will want to hear more than one story. The most important feature of the book is that Pastor Machowski sees the gospel in every story! Listen to how his book opens: ‘God’s gospel story starts at the very beginning’! I assure you that it doesn’t end there. The gospel permeates every chapter of this book. I highly recommend it.” –\u00a0Nancy E. Ganz,\u00a0Author of Herein is Love: A Commentary Series for Children<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Reaching the generations with the gospel requires an enormous amount of parental wisdom and intentionality.\u00a0Marty Machowski has provided a great tool to aid parents in their primary task of discipling \u00a0their children. Not only that but The Gospel Story Bible presents the grand story line of Christ in all of Scripture.\u00a0Every parent should have a copy.\u00a0 I highly recommend it.”-\u00a0Randy Stinson,\u00a0President, The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood; Dean, School of Church Ministries, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
