The Barnabas Children's Bible presents a continuous thread from Genesis to Revelation in chronological, rather than biblical, order. Here there are retellings of familiar and less well-known Bible passages, including Psalm 23, the Lord's Prayer, teaching on justice from Micah and Paul's words on love. The 365 stories could be used as daily readings or as a dip-in read. Ideal resource for Sunday school, each story has a Bible quotation from the CEV, encapsulating a truth from thestory. Children can familiarise themselves with the wealth of literature in the Bible using the full contents of stories or the useful indexes of people and famous passages. There is also a fascinating encyclopedia of background information on topics including civilisations, food, towns religious practices, and daily life.
