There are so many things to sing about-things that make us happy or excited, even things that make us sad. But the greatest reason to sing is when we think about God! God is a great God! Everything that we know and love about God should make us want to sing about him! In Our Great God, Sally Michael helps parents to instruct the mind, engage the heart, and influence the will of their children as they learn a new scripture. Each page shows pictures and asks questions to engage preschoolers in understanding the verse. Repetition of the verse throughout the book helps children memorize the Bible verse (ESV) after just a few readings. Also included are pointers for helping children memorize scripture and suggestions for activities that will reinforce "Living by the Word."
- Part of the Bible Verses to Remember series.
- Bright, fun illustrations by Sengsavane Chounramany bring the Bible verse to life.

Endorsements: "As important as it is to help our young children memorize key Scripture verses, it also makes a big difference if they are led to think deeply and clearly about what those verses mean! This new series of short and attractive books, Bible Verses to Remember, helps parents and Christian workers accomplish both goals. They focus on verses that express truths central to our Christian faith and the questions and narrative show what these verses mean and how important they are to our lives. What a gift to our children!" "These delightful little books are just the kind you'll want to have on hand for your children or grandchildren. They will teach the children you love to know, honor, and trust our great God." "Little minds grab on to memorized facts like glue! When life pounds away at the door of your child's mind, this series will help them memorize Scripture to remind them of God's love and care for years to come." "Sally Michael has crafted a new set of easy-to-use tools for helping families treasure God's Word together. She's combined the skill of a master teacher with her heart as a mother and grandmother to create this beautifully illustrated series of children's books. In each book-whether Good Gifts Come from God, Give God Your Worries, or Our Great God-you and your children will hear Sally's wise and winsome words about our great and gracious Lord." Sally Michael and Sengsavane Chounramany have created a visual feast to nourish children's souls. Michael features one bedrock verse per book, explaining what it means and why it matters. In so doing, she helps children experience the benefits of meditating on God's Word. Simple but not simplistic, the Bible Verses to Remember books teach children how to understand and apply God's Word to their own lives. They're brimming with life-transforming truths about God in words children can understand. Delightful, vibrant illustrations serve the prose, all for the purpose of leading children to faith. A feast for the eyes and the soul."
