Book
Description:
What if a child could read his or her own personal mail from God? The
NIrV Love Letters from God Bible will invite kids to do just that! This
full-text Bible in the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV) is a perfect
way to introduce children to God’s Word and his great love. With 80 love
letters from God written especially for the reader, children will see Bible
stories and themes come to life and learn just how much they are loved by their
Creator.
Each love letter also contains a very special
Bible verse, entitled God’s Wonderful Words to You. Much more than a mere
memory verse, each carefully chosen promise will be God’s very own personal
words of love, encouragement, and hope, and are highlighted in the text. The
love letters will culminate in an invitation for the children to write their
own RSVP to God.
My
Thoughts:
The first thing I noticed when I opened the box and pulled out this Bible was the inviting cover. Just seeing the lovely illustrations on the front made me want to open it. Inside I found an explanations of the NIrV version and why the publisher chose to use this edition. There is also a page of contents, a presentation page, and colorful maps. But the real beauty is in the "Your Love Letter from God" pages and the colorful inserts that give the reader explanations of Biblical principles. The letters from God are written by Glenys Nellist, who has written several beautiful books for children. There is also a place for the reader to write a letter back to God and a place in the back for notes. This would be an excellent Bible for a child who has given their life to Jesus or one who wants to learn more. I'd go so far as to say, an adult would enjoy the book as well.

I received this book in exchange for a fair
review.
