Publisher's Synopsis
Parents are the most influential adults in their children's lives, and are therefore the best presenters of God's plan of salvation. This parent-and-child coloring book serves as a child's companion book to the forty-five-day, Good News For You: Child and Parent Devotional. The coloring book reinforces the lessons that explain the gospel of Jesus Christ by pairing scripture with simple but powerful illustrations. Playing off the letter U, the book explains how we are vessels designed by God to be filled by God himself. Through our own free choice, however, we allow ourselves to be filled with the evils of this world. Scott's illustrations make the problem abundantly clear. And the solution is brilliantly simple: "Christ in you, the hope of glory." (Colossians 1:27 NIV). Fifty-three illustrations walk children through the Gospel of Jesus Christ and life as a child of God. Twenty-one scriptures in the coloring book inspire the child and parent to believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. The devotional and coloring book challenge the children to answer the question, "Who are you?" The devotional and coloring book expose the reality of sin in them and the world. It presents God's solution for sin and explains the salvation decision in a kid-friendly way that makes sense. At the end of the forty-five-day devotional children can realize their identity in Christ and have a better understanding of God's grace and His nature. Twelve years in the making, Good News For You Child and Parent Coloring Book is Scott's gift to families. By coloring the illustrations children will be entertained and engaged in the devotional. Puzzles in the back of book keep the coloring book kid-friendly.
