Press Release Detail

IBS Children's Book Uses Scripture to Impact Young Lives

28.07.2003

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado— International Bible Society (IBS) announces the release of God’s Great Love, a book telling the story of the Bible—using actual Scripture text—to help children ages four to 10 understand God’s great love for them.

God’s Great Love is written from the perspective of two children, Daniel and Deborah. Together they tell important Bible stories by sharing Scripture passages using the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV) text, which is written on a third-grade reading level. Large, full-color illustrations help bring the book to life.

From the story of creation to the resurrection of Jesus and God’s plan for each of us, God’s Great Love encourages young readers to further explore the Bible and experience God through His Word.

Lisa Anderson, IBS Associate Editor in Product Development, said, “We believe there is inherent power in God’s Word to change lives. The creation of God’s Great Love grew out of our desire to present the big story of the Bible in the words of the Bible itself.”

IBS is also developing a Spanish version of the book, El gran amor de Dios, as well as an interactive digital book in English is now available on www.IBSDirect.com as a free download.

For more information on God’s Great Love and other Scripture products, call IBS at 1-800-524-1588 or go to www.IBSDirect.com.

International Bible Society, founded in 1809, faithfully translates, publishes and reaches out with God’s Word so that people around the world may become disciples of Jesus Christ and members of His Body.
