Ten years ago, Teri McKinley and I launched Our Daily Bread for Kids–365 Meaningful Moment with God. It was the first children’s book written for the brand Our Daily Bread. Since then, we have added books for toddlers and preschooler to the line, as well as quiz books, activity books, and coloring books. I am excited to share that our second volume of 365 devotions released this month.

At a time when many Christians are turning away from the reading the Bible, this is a book that will help kids not only understand more about the Bible, but also learn to love it. The daily devotions in this second volume are like a Bible study for children.  Many devotions include a retelling of a Bible story, while other devotions that are interspersed between the Bible stories explain how to apply the stories to their lives–making the Bible relevant to today. The message that is threaded from the beginning devotions to the end is the message of God’s redemptive plan of salvation.

As we take readers through the Old Testament, we explain how Jesus is foreshadowed through many of the stories—from God’s promise to Abraham to Zechariah’s prophecy of Jesus riding on a donkey—and everything in between.

In addition to an engaging story, each devotion includes: 

•  Reading suggestions for exploring more
• Bible verses from easy-to-read versions
•  Prayer starters
•  Daily truths to remember
•  Fun facts ranging through history and spanning the globe

Some families may find this book to be more traditional and that’s exactly what we want! God’s Word is never outdated! It is alive and applicable to everyone. Our goal is to help children grow in their knowledge of Scripture as they learn of God’s desire for us to know Him, understand how He made a way through Jesus, and discover how the Holy Spirit guides us in our everyday lives. With the help of Anita Schmidt’s diverse illustrations, kids will see the entire Bible as one big story of God’s redemptive plan for the world and learn that God’s plan includes them!
