Have you ever noticed how your heart thrills when you hear a good story?
J.R.R. Tolkien argued that this pulse of joy and wonder arises because all the best stories reflect the truth of the One, Great Story — the Story of how God sent a Savior to save mankind from inescapable peril.
Reflecting this idea, The Storyteller’s Bible offers kids the story of redemption in a book intended as a read-aloud. I’ve been honored to work on many book projects over the years, but this one was a special labor of love. My goal was to capture for kids the tremendous gift of the gospel as revealed throughout the entire biblical narrative, in a storybook that is at once engaging, theologically rich, and faithful to the biblical text. The talents of 32 illustrators from across the world bring the stories to life. I’m so grateful to B&H Kids for their partnership in this project!
The Storyteller’s Bible is now available on Amazon, Christian Book, Westminster Books, and elsewhere.
A world being created from nothing. A boy facing a giant on the battlefield. A Savior giving all for the people He loves. The Bible is full of incredible true stories that not only enthrall listeners but also connect them to the original Storyteller—God.
This unique Bible storybook helps you excel as a storyteller too, by offering:
- Thirty-five engaging stories written specifically for reading aloud
- Illustrations from more than thirty visual storytellers from around the world
- Mid-story and follow-up questions to engage your listeners
- Extra content and tips on how to be a better storyteller
Each story takes about five minutes to read aloud, perfect for sharing at the end of class or at the end of a long day. Together, the stories offer a cohesive retelling of the gospel, pointing children’s hearts and minds to the greatest Storyteller of all.
