Westminster Bookstore Note: This book contains cartoon or artistic images of Jesus. There are many people in our constituency who, in a sincere effort to honor the second commandment, refrain from the use of any kind of drawings or pictures of Jesus, even if not intended for a worship context. Out of respect for those who take this position, we have sought to add a note to books in our children’s category which have drawings or depictions of Jesus so that they can factor that into their buying decisions, as they would if they could inspect the books physically.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“We’ve had an advance copy of Kevin DeYoung’s new Biggest Story Bible Storybook in our home for several months now. During that time, it has become my boys’ favorite bedtime read. And when I say “favorite,” I mean they like it so much that my 5-year-old has memorized “The Valley of the Dry Bones” story from Ezekiel 37 word for word. I even have a cute recording where he’s reciting away in an angelic voice and then stops halfway through to shove his brother over, who’s blocking the pictures. “Praise God that he remembers his covenant, even when we forget. Praise God that he gave us life when we were dead. Praise God that he knows how to make dry bones stand up and breathe.”DeYoung’s experience as a pastor, father of 9 kids, and seminary professor shines through in each story. It’s clear that he knows kids, he understands the Bible, and he loves his Savior. These qualities make each story like the best kind of sermon–faithful to the text, engaging, and relentlessly pointing forward to Jesus.”

“As parents, we want to teach our children about the Bible, but sometimes it’s intimidating to know where or how to begin. Kevin DeYoung’s new book The Biggest Story Bible Storybook is a wonderful way to introduce children to individual stories of the Bible while helping them grasp the main storyline of Scripture. It’s beautifully illustrated, fun to read, and will help parents teach big truths to young hearts.”

“Magnificent. With typical clarity and verve, Kevin DeYoung captures the wonder of the greatest story ever told. My children are going to have a hard time reading it, though, because their dad will keep stealing it to read himself.”

“Through rich, understandable narratives and striking illustrations, The Biggest Story Bible Storybook captures children with something even more beautiful than this book—the story of redemption. Kids are going to scoot in close to see and hear what’s next in this captivating retelling of Scripture. I know this will bless many families with a deeper understanding of the Bible.”

“Families need the Bible more than ever. This A+ version for kids will capture their imaginations and call their hearts to the Father. And I’m confident The Biggest Story Bible Storybook will do the same for any parent who reads these beautifully illustrated pages out loud to their children.”
