The Jesus Storybook Bible

Sometimes one bold, courageous step can lead to a higher calling and purpose. Such is the case for Sally Lloyd-Jones, author of “The Jesus Storybook Bible.” Sally recalls how her father sent her off to boarding school at the tender age of eight with the words of Joshua 1, “Be strong and very courageous.” Though ill and terribly frightened at the time, Sally was sure that God was going ahead of her. Sally tells how those years of boarding school stretched her imagination and helped mold her into the writer she is today.

Kids need to know they're loved, but they also need hope. Sally Lloyd-Jones tells how her book, "Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing," invites children to see what God says about them, His true masterpieces. View Show Notes →
