Toddler Theology
Childlike Faith for Everyone
Blessing2UPublishing
"Delightful book written in simplistic style"
Theology Simplified! This book has a unique approach to sharing the gospel. Using language young children can understand, Jesus is telling the story and makes His love come alive on every page ~ including how He explains the "really special job" God gave Him at the cross. What a perfect way to introduce your child to the Savior of the world!
"Explains Christian faith to young children"
"Finally someone has written a book about the Trinity and God's love that small children can understand. There are many good things about this book such as its warm, gentle tone and colorful, exuberant pictures ~ but what I like best is that the story is told in the friendly voice of ~ Jesus! It's like He is right there in the room talking to them! This book should be added to every primary Sunday school class. Thank you, Ms. Dudley, for writing a book that opens the door to meaningful conversations I have with my four inquisitive little grandsons every time we read it."

"Great introduction to Jesus for little ones"
"Makes the depth of the gospel easy for all ages to understand"

This devotional, activity book is all about Fun Family Nights with a focus on Jesus! It creates an opportunity for busy families to pause and spend some meaningful time together in Christian education. Each lesson begins with a real life situation pictured in a black and white caricature drawing that can be colored. The story then takes a spiritual twist ... becomes sprinkled with scripture and prayer ... and concludes with some fun ideas to help your family grow in faith together. The lessons are ready to go with little or no preparation. FAMILY NIGHTS at their BEST!

Same Stories ~ Different Front Cover
THE WHY?
I grew up in a mostly white bubble. Then after George Floyd's murder, I participated in a Zoom series of discussions focusing on racism and white privilege. I listened ... and learned a lot about discrimination and the work we still need to do to make our world a better place. I began seeking opportunities to enrich my life with people of color. And guess what? It's beautiful.
Then one day last fall, I picked up my Faith, Family, & Fun book and - to my surprise - saw the six white stick figure children on the cover in a new light. Yes, the book looked welcoming to white families ... but how about people of color? What do they see? I wanted to make it perfectly clear that God's love is the same for all of us.
So I called my illustrator. It took several weeks before she was available, but Kyle worked with me and drew each child with a wonderful and different skin color. Then the challenge was getting these changes properly uploaded to Ingram for printing. Now it's done, and I absolutely LOVE the new cover! I hope you do too.
