Big Dreams, Big Prayers, Bible For Kids Review

From the cover page emblazoned with I Thessalonians 5: 16-18 to the Prayer Journal on the last page, Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids is one of the most thorough Bibles for youth I've ever reviewed.

The Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids, NIV includes the complete New International Version (NIV) of the Bible along with devotions, prayers, and highlighted verses to help kids pray and listen for God’s answers to their prayers. 

 Features include:

  • Presentation page for personalization and gift giving.
  • Devotions about people who prayed and listened to God such as Abraham, Hannah, and Job.
  • The Lord's Prayer explained for kids.
  • The "hand" prayer model to help kids remember to pray for others and themselves.
  • Highlighted verses great for memorization and meditation.
  • Book introductions explain what each book of the Bible is about.
  • Prayer journaling pages with space to record personal prayers and answers to prayer.
  • Reading plans.
  • Complete text of the New International Version (NIV)

My Thoughts:  Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids has so many fab features I really don't know where to start.  I loved the Reading Plans, yes, that planS with an "S" as in not 1, not 2 but 3 Reading Plans.  The first is two week introductory reading plan with familiar readings and scriptures.  Did I mention, Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids has 3 reading plans.  The 2nd Reading Plan is a bit more comprehensive than the first.  It's an  180-day reading plan featuring at least one chapter from every Bible book.  The 3rd Reading Plan is an in depth 3 year reading plan tackling every single word of the Bible which seeks to help the reader understand the Bible.  Love, love, love this feature!  

 The colorful insets throughout Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids provide commentary on How to Read the Bible, How to Pray and other common topics.  Each Bible book begins with a one page introduction answering some common "Who", "What" and "Why" questions providing a historical glance at the chapter.  The Word comes to life when you can apply it to your life and Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids  features tools for applying biblical lessons to everyday life.  Great book!

 Buy It:  Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible is available wherever Zondervan books are sold including online at www.Zondervan.com.

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will r

Jeepers! It's January Hop

Happy New Year! What better way to kick off the new year than with a giveaway! I am so excited to join The Mommy Island, The Kids Did It and 90+ other fab blogs in the first big giveaway hop of 2018! Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima
