Our God is Bigger Than That!
Authors Michelle Medlock Adams and Eva Marie Everson bring us a precious book for children ages 2-6.
Our God Is Bigger Than That! begins as the sun rises on the farm, and baby farm animals face their individual fears throughout the day. All discover a simple truth—God’s much bigger than their fears. As the sun sets on the farm, the farmer’s little daughter is headed to bed, yet she is afraid of the dark. She faces her fear, too.
The same repeated stanza:
“God’s greater than your greatest fear.
He knows just where you’re at.
No matter what you face in life—
Our God is bigger than that!”
continues throughout the book, with only “the source of the fear” changing in each spread.
The Berenstain Bears, Do Not Fear, God Is Near meets Little Blue Truck
As the sun rises on the farm, baby farm animals face their individual fears throughout the day. A kitten worries that a dog will see her. A baby chick is scared of foxes.
But there's something much bigger than their fears.
“God’s greater than your greatest fear.
He knows just where you’re at.
No matter what you face in life—
God is bigger than that.”
Will they learn to be brave, knowing God is on their side?
