Description
"This is the true kindness of God. Stand strong in it!"
A new translation of Peter's first letter in the language of children.
Every verse, every chapter - fully illustrated with captivating colour and stories.
One of the first volumes in the ground-breaking Epistles for Kids series.
These letters in the Bible have changed lives and changed the world for thousands of years. These are God's Very Special Letters. We want to everything we can to help kids access, hear, and believe the message of God within them.
Here is a Bible that looks and feels like it was made for them, with over 50+ pages of stunning and immersive illustrations that promote deep exploration and comprehension of the text.
Most kids' Bibles skip over this part of the Scriptures, or provide a brief paraphrase. But this is a new translation, translated with serious care from the original Greek language, using only words that children use in the schoolyard every day.
Whether you are young or old - come on a journey with Silvanus as he travels around the region of Turkey to deliver the Apostle Peter's letter to the churches. Listen in, as three children with very different stories and backgrounds hear about God's wonderful plan for them. Follow along as they discover their privileged place in the unfolding story of God's salvation - even angels long to see what they can see! Hear the call to shine brightly in a dark world, as we live far away from our true home in heaven. Be encouraged to endure, as Peter calls Christians to follow in the way of Christ, being ready to suffer, and always full of good deeds along the way.
It's all there in 1 Peter - and it's ready to be explored by children and families together like never before.
We often think of the New Testament letters as dull textbooks. But nothing could be further from the truth! These are living texts, full of adventure, relationship, drama, and worship. Our goal is to simply open them up for all to see and believe.
Let's open up God's Very Special Letters - let's open up the Epistles for Kids!
"I have been completely persuaded that we need to do everything we can to ensure that these brilliant translations of the New Testament get into the hands of as many people as possible - children, parents, grandparents, whole churches - because everyone will benefit from this."

"For the child, the Epistles have long been unread letters at the end of the Bible. Not anyone. The Epistles for Kids has changed that. These books are beautifully illustrated and lyrically written. They are edifying for both adults and children. A great resource for a church to use to explore a letter together, for parents to read with their children, or for children to read themselves. What a joy it is to see these precious letters come to life for children."

I have always had a deep interest in ministry to children. One of the things in which I think we could do better, is to break out of the habit of merely telling stories, important though they are. Hence my commitment to the catechism and to suitable doctrinal teaching. But I must confess that it had not crossed my mind to provide our young people with the ability to access the NT epistles in a form which they could understand. Matt saw the need and has sought to meet it with these books. The illustrations serve the text brilliantly and the language he uses will communicate effectively.
