New Book: Teaching Preschoolers about Jesus's Miracles

If kids are going to trust and believe that God is big enough to address all of the huge challenges we face in our world, they need to hear stories about how he works in miraculous ways. A miracle takes place when God shows up and does something big—something amazing—that people can’t do in their own strength.

The best way to teach kids about the miracles is simply to tell them the stories from the Bible and share your wonder and amazement about what God has done and then point kids to the big truths those miracles teach us about who God is and how he cares for us.

Kids live in the same beautiful and broken world that we inhabit, and they need to know that God is present and active in our world. More than that, they need to know that they can trust him. That’s why I wrote Jesus is Bigger than Me: True Stories of His Miracles.

In the book, children will learn that Jesus is good and powerful—that he has the power to heal and even give life to the dead. Most importantly, children will learn that Jesus is God, and through the stories of his miracles, they’ll be encouraged to go to him for help because he cares for them.  Jesus is bigger and more powerful than any superhero. He can turn water into wine, calm a stormy sea, give sight to the blind, and even raise the dead. When Jesus is with us, God is with us.  

Jesus Is Bigger Than Me uses simple words and concepts to help toddlers and preschoolers understand that Jesus is powerful and good. He isn’t just stronger than any superhero, he is God—the King of the universe.
