Discover...God's amazing book
Description
This new-and-improved starter issue introduces readers to Jesus from the beginning of Mark's gospel. It also has studies all about God's word from Psalms. The idea is to introduce young people to regular Bible reading, making it fun and interactive, yet with no-nonsense teaching, straight from God's word.
This issue comes with a free bookmark with tips on regular Bible study, and a list of all the Bible books, to help them get used to how the Bible fits together.
Other information
To get young people into reading Discover, we've developed three Discover starter (or trial) packs which introduce the idea of Bible reading and some key concepts in the gospel.Additional Information

Good, accessible study material for youngsters
My daughter is 9yrs old (Yr5) but reading at a more advanced level. So the problem is, how does a parent keep their child challenged whilst not presenting them with material that requires anything more than an emotional maturity that is still running true to age? (I mention this because I'm increasingly convinced that many parents struggle with this.) The problem is no less an issue with bible reading notes - so I'm thrilled to have found these!
The material is presented in such a way as to both lead the child in study and require them to respond in thoughful and prayerful reflection to what they're learning of the Lord and His word. That leaves space for parents to pursue conversations at a level of emotional maturity that is appropriate whilst not limiting the opportunity for the child to grow in their knowing and loving of Jesus.
Of course, there are the usual variety of little puzzles and things, but not in such a way as to trivialise or detract from the biblical material and learning themes.
Perhaps the only significant element that is missing now is some kind of digital interaction. It would probably only require a relatively small amount of work to set up some kind of secure online forum where youngsters working through the Discover series could discuss the material.
I've written here with wider reference to the Discover series, but should add that the '...God's amazing book' edition served wonderfully to stir and encourage a hunger for bible reading and study and I was enthusiastically asked to order the next edition! ![]()
