Made by God: Celebrating God's Gloriously Diverse World
Description
This timely picture book from Dr. Tony Evans teaches children the values of equality, diversity, and unity from a biblical perspective and provides parents with a starting point for meaningful family discussions about important cultural issues. Dr. Evans explains in simple terms that we all are created in the image of God. We may look different, come from different places, and have a little or a lot, but God loves and values us equally. Therefore, we should love and value others as He does. Made by God also introduces children to the concepts of diversity, unity, and racism from a Christian worldview and gives them practical suggestions on how they can stand up for what's right when they see injustice occurring. This helpful resource gives parents a tool they can use to engage children in important conversations on a variety of topics, including race, inequality, reconciliation, and God's plan for humanity.
