Customer Reviews

Awesome for everyone!

I work at a Day Camp for K-5 kids and they absolutely love these stories. They used to complain about having to have Bible Study, but now they can't wait!

wonderful book for the whole family

This is a terrific book for the family to read together and explore the less well-known stories of the Bible. The author writes in an easy to read manner and gives suggestions for different ways to go through the book depending on your family style, time available, age of children, etc. A wonderful fresh way to do family devotions!

This will get the family talking!

This delightful and insightful book will certainly get the family talking, as they read these hidden Bible stories together. Dan Cooley draws the readers into the story, then midway, poses questions that hit home, making you want to discover the lessons and completion of the adventure. It's great to read little known parts of the Bible that reveal important lessons for us today. The writing flows along so naturally that you can't wait to read the next story. This is sure to help adults and young people of all ages get excited about the Bible and how it applies to our lives.
