King of Glory by P.D. Bramsen – Book review
Wow! What a dynamic retelling of the Bible. King of Glory is a Bible storybook for big kids – grown-ups included. The awesome pictures will capture the imagination of both young and old alike.
Even though the text is for the more mature reader, the realistic Bible pictures will draw in the younger children affording the parents an opportunity to discuss the stories with the children in their own words. The many Bible references and quotations provide opportunities to gather additional information directly from God’s Word.
The story of Jesus, the “King of Glory,” begins before time when he plans for a people who will love and fellowship with him. The story continues as it weaves its way through the creation, the rebellion of Lucifer (Satan) and the angels (demons) who followed him and how Satan has repeatedly deceived people beginning with Adam and Eve. Yet Jesus Christ, the King of Glory, has won his battle with Satan and death, and continues to fight for us today.
This book is Biblically sound and is valuable for helping people of all ages grasp the depths of God’s love for mankind and the great lengths he has been willing to go to woo us back from Satan’s clutches here on earth.
Author P.D. Bramsen worked many years as missionaries in heavily Muslim populated Sengal, West Africa, near the Sahara Desert, where they raised their three children. His writings reflect a depth of understanding of the scriptures as well as his desire to encourage others to dig deeper and to learn from God’s Word.
You can read King of Glory on the One God One Message website. Once you have seen it, you won’t be satisfied to have to boot up your computer to read it again on the screen. You will want a copy of your own. Copies of King of Glory may be purchased at Amazon.com, Barnes&Noble.com, or atGoodSeed.com.
Because I happened to get a second free copy over a slip-up in the delivery, I am offering one free copy to one person whose name is drawn from those who leave comments below. (I plan to do the drawing on June 4, but be patient with me. This date falls one day before my mother’s 94th birthday and I will be with her in Tennessee. I may be a few days late in following through.)
I received this book free from the publisher through the BookCrash.com book review program, which requires an honest, though not necessarily positive, review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s CFR Title 16, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”
Thanks for letting us know about this resource, Janice!
My granddaughter is becoming more and more interested in reading the Bible. I’d like to have a book like this for her 11th birthday. Thanks for letting us know about it.
Guess I need to leave my email address to be entered in the drawing.

Thanks!
I found this second post today…??? Not sure what the problem was, but I wouldn’t have needed your email since you have to supply it to post even though it isn’t visible to the public. I replaced it with ……… for your privacy.

This sounds wonderful. I love the cover.
Sorry to be so late in coming back to this. I got home today from my trip to Tennessee. I asked my husband to pick a number between one and three and he said three. So Cheryl gets the book. I’ll drop it in the mail tomorrow if I get to the PO between the magic hours of 9:00 and 10:00 am. Otherwise it will go out next Monday. I hope you enjoy the book as much as I do.
How wonderful. Thanks so much.
You are welcome. I apologize for the delay in getting it to you.
Hi Janice,
Just happened to come across your well-written and influential review for KING of GLORY. Thank you. It has been amazing to watch the Lord bless this multi-language, clear-gospel tool in more ways than we could have imagined. I am wondering if you are aware of the fact that we have turned it into a movie. We just came out with Edition 2 of the DVD, which as 8 languages on it. If you will send me a mailing address, it would be a privilege to send you a complementary copy (or two!).
Have a blessed Christmas,
Paul, writer director for KING of GLORY, the book & movie.
