Written By Lara d'Entremont

I folded the last onesie and placed it in the drawer of our new nursery bureau. For most pregnant women, preparing their nursery for the arrival of their precious baby marks an exciting time.

How are you teaching your children about God? As believers, we may think that as long as we share the key stories, send our children to church and youth groups, and memorize the passages from our curriculum, all will be well. Yet we live in a world of deconstructed faith and every wind of false doctrine. What if our children need more than memorized Bible verses and a children’s program at church?

How good, true, and beautiful children’s books can help us move from childishness to childlikeness, and renew our hope when we grow jaded by the world.
