Publisher's Synopsis
A Surprising God is much more than just another collection of Bible stories for children. A Surprising God relies on up-to-date knowledge to make sense of enthralling, but often perplexing and frightening bible stories. A Surprising God is an adventure in storytelling that recaptures stories first told by people just like ourselves. Their stories help us understand that God loves children, the poor and the underdogs. That is the reason for telling these stories once again. A Surprising God is written for kids and also for their parents and teachers. Parents will especially appreciate the introductions to each story, and they will find that a "Storyteller's Toolkit" in the appendix helps them read the Bible stories to their children with understanding and meaning. A Surprising God is Bible stories for children and adults, for questioners of all ages.
