The Acrostic of Scripture: A Rhyming Biblical Theology for Kids by Jonathan Gibson and Timothy Brindle (Book 4 of Acrostic Theology for Kids)

About:

Book Four of Acrostic Theology for Kids

The Acrostic of Scripture gives parents and teachers a unique way to teach theology to children and makes catechism fun! An alphabet of words introducing biblical theology, written to a rhyming beat, paints a detailed and varied portrait of the unfolding story of the Bible, as it is fulfilled by Jesus.

Authors Jonathan Gibson and Timothy Brindle have created The Acrostic of Scripture, to help children ages five to eleven learn theology so their "knowledge of God's big picture is better." The fourth release in the Acrostic Theology for Kids series, this book is fun to read, simple to memorize, and features illustrations from C. S. Fritz that shine with creativity.

The Acrostic of Scripture includes a QR code in the back that can be scanned to listen to the audio version of the book which Timothy Brindle reads in rap style.

• Gives parents and teachers a unique way to teach theology to children and makes catechism fun!
• Using the alphabet to teach about God has a rich history in the Bible, especially in the Psalms and Lamentations.
• The Acrostic Theology for Kids series introduces systematic theology to children uniquely on their age level.

Reviews:

"The Acrostic Theology for Kids series is a fun and engaging way to introduce kids (and their parents!) to important Bible words and concepts!"
Nancy Guthrie, Author of What Every Child Should Know About Prayer

"Learning is helped by memory aids and using the alphabet in this way is especially great for kids. It helps them remember AND gives them a sense of accomplishment, since they already know the alphabet and can tie new ideas to it. Looking forward to hearing Timothy rap it!"
Elizabeth W. D. Groves, Lecturer in Biblical Hebrew, Westminster Seminary, Philadelphia; author; performer
