From the back cover

"Israel Galindo's experience in teaching is a variety of settings has prepared him to write a needed addition to the field of curriculum for children. He addresses the sensory nature of learning for children so that the children are engaged in creative activity and learn at the same time. Addressing these topics biblically helps the children form opinions and approach issues from a Christian perstpective." --Dr. Allen Jackson, New Orleans Theological Seminary."This book is a resource for those adults wanting to bring meaningful experiences to children about their church, home, family, and faith. A must for any adult working with children in a faith community!" --Jessica Shields Flowers, Director, Vienna Baptist Children's Center"The educational approach used in The Bible, Life! puts the emphasis on active learning, as opposed to teacher performance. As children participate in their learning experience, the teacher engages them in reflection and analysis by asking questions and engaging them in conversation. In this way, children are not merely entertained or "kept busy" by doing an activity. They learn to reflect and make connections between what they do and what they are learning about self, God, church, and faith." --From the Introduction.
