  • God Made All of Me (Justin & Lindsey Holcomb)

    A Book to Help Children Protect Their Bodies

    God made every part of you!

    It’s an easy mistake, to convey the message to children that their bodies — or particular parts of their bodies — are shameful. This misconception fuels confusion, embarrassment, and secrecy, and often prevents children from recognizing or reporting sexual abuse.

    God Made All of Me is a simply-told, beautifully-illustrated story to help families talk about these sensitive issues with 2 to 8 year-old children. Because the private parts of our bodies are private, the home is the ideal environment where a child should learn about his or her body and how it should be treated by others.

  • Glenda’s Story: Led by Grace (Glenda Revell)

    Unwanted from birth and abused throughout her childhood, Glenda was desperate for love and a sense of belonging. Her only respite from a miserable home life was school, and the welcoming shade of her favorite willow tree, under which she would dream of another life, another family, and pray to a God she did not yet know.

    Ultimately, Glenda’s afflictions became the cords with which God drew her to Himself. Receiving His salvation, she understood that God had saved her from her own sinfulness, more than horrid conditions and treatment by others. This is a story of great hope, an amazing account of how our merciful Savior brings light out of darkness, joy out of sorrow, and peace out of pain. Highly recommended by Elisabeth Elliot.
