Summary

When children have something on their minds, they tend to run to their parents and caregivers。 Wouldn't it be great if they also learned that they can talk to God about anything and everything because Jesus has made that possible?

This beautifully illustrated Bible storybook, by Risen Motherhood co-founder Laura Wifler, takes children on a journey from the start of the Bible story to the end。 From Eden and God's presence, through the fall, redemption, and the Spirit's presence with us now, to our presence with God in the future, God has always made a way for his people to talk with him。 Children will learn a biblical understanding of prayer, why it's amazing, and that they can enjoy talking with God about anything, anytime, anywhere。

Includes Jesus' teaching on the Lord's Prayer to help children know how to pray。

Outstanding! Clear and practical examples of prayer, beginning in the Garden of Eden until arrival at the gates of heaven。 "Until then, we can talk with God - any time, any place, any prayer。" It's a book that children will want to read over and over again。 Outstanding!

I always enjoy books from the Tales that Tell the Truth series, and even though this book focuses on prayer instead of telling a particular Bible story, it is still narrative-driven。 Laura Wifler opens the book with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, explaining that even though they could walk and talk as friends with God, after they sinned, they wanted to hide from God and not talk to Him。 Any Time, Any Place, Any Prayer emphasizes that God always wants us to talk to Him, and the book highligh I always enjoy books from the Tales that Tell the Truth series, and even though this book focuses on prayer instead of telling a particular Bible story, it is still narrative-driven。 Laura Wifler opens the book with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, explaining that even though they could walk and talk as friends with God, after they sinned, they wanted to hide from God and not talk to Him。 Any Time, Any Place, Any Prayer emphasizes that God always wants us to talk to Him, and the book highlights the role of prayer in biblical history and tells the story of Jesus。 The exuberant text shares the joy and hope that we have in the gospel, knowing that in Christ, there is no longer anything separating us from God。The book includes examples of historical figures characterized by prayer, such as Susanna Wesley and Civil Rights leader John Perkins, and the last pages encourage children to pray, giving examples of the kinds of feelings and situations that they can take to God every day。 The book ends with a beautiful page spread imagining heaven, where we will be with God one day。 Catalina Echeverri's illustrations are beautiful, striking, and unique throughout the book, and this last page made me gasp。 She consistently does beautiful work, and I love how her art ties this series together, even though the books come from a range of different authors。Any Time, Any Place, Any Prayer is a beautiful, high-quality book that celebrates the story of Jesus and encourages kids to pray。 I would highly recommend this to Christian families, churches, and Christian schools, and parents and teachers should check out some of the free resources related to the book that are available on the Good Book Company website。 This is a great book for kids and their adults to enjoy together, and the whole-picture, gospel-focused emphasis on prayer is very inspiring。I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

* I voluntarily received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher and all thoughts are my own。This storybook is Gospel-centered, using simple words to walk children through the beginning of time and ways Adam and Eve communicated with God。 It carries through the fall of man when sin entered the world, and shows that even though our relationship with God changed because of sin, our communication with Him could still be any time, any place。 The story continues to show Jesus arrival, li * I voluntarily received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher and all thoughts are my own。This storybook is Gospel-centered, using simple words to walk children through the beginning of time and ways Adam and Eve communicated with God。 It carries through the fall of man when sin entered the world, and shows that even though our relationship with God changed because of sin, our communication with Him could still be any time, any place。 The story continues to show Jesus arrival, life, death and resurrection, and the intercession of the Holy Spirit。 It reinforces the idea that God has always provided a way to communicate with Him。 It shows how we can express our love for Him as well as our needs for forgiveness, guidance and help。 The book continues with intercession for others, gratitude for what God has given us and demonstrates a handful of places kids can pray, reminding them that any time, any place is perfect for prayer! The illustrations in this storybook are so sweet and engaging! My daughter, age 3, loved pointing out the various expressions and activities the children and people in this book were doing。 The illustrations are diverse, both showing people of color and inclusive of children with disabilities。 On many pages, there are little blurbs giving short, child-like examples of prayer。 In summary, this book offers a very BIG, important truth in a simple way that is easy for children to grasp and understand while also depicting a picture of the Gospel and the various roles of the Holy Trinity。 I believe this is an excellent conversation starter for children on the importance of prayer while showing children both how and when to pray and I highly recommend it! 。。。more

What I like about the book:the illustrations are unique, almost childlike drawings, appealing, and expressive。 Sin- is not only identified "they chose not to trust and obey him, and this is called sin。" Separation from God because of sin is explained simply and appropriately。 Prayer is clearly defined, explained, and brought in with practical strategies, and feelings。 Who God is- one who wants to communicate with people- is a clearly presented message。 Biblical examples are pictured and captione What I like about the book:the illustrations are unique, almost childlike drawings, appealing, and expressive。 Sin- is not only identified "they chose not to trust and obey him, and this is called sin。" Separation from God because of sin is explained simply and appropriately。 Prayer is clearly defined, explained, and brought in with practical strategies, and feelings。 Who God is- one who wants to communicate with people- is a clearly presented message。 Biblical examples are pictured and captioned, plus the references to their events in history are listed with the image。 The book teaches the concept of the hypostatic union clearly (without the official term) the book presents and repeats that Jesus is both God and man。 The book presents the gospel message clearly: God created man, man sinned, that separated him from God, God made a way because He loves us so, he sent his Son, Jesus, to live a sinless perfect life as God and Man, died on the cross for to pay for our sins, and was raised from the dead, and when Jesus went to be with God, He gave us the Holy Spirit to live in us。 The book has small humorous quips that will make the kids giggle。 It references known people of prayer as well as biblical connections。 It reinforces, teaches clearly, and emphasizes how and what to pray to God, as well as the anytime, anyplace concept。 I won't spoil too much of the book, but I love it。 What I wonder about the book:It is 32 pages, it covers so much doctrine and so many concepts beyond prayer。 Will it be too much for the littles it is intended for? or because of the humor, the simplicity, the illustrations, will it just be a read again, read again, again book for the littles, and they will grasp it all with repetition。 Educational Connections:all the biblical references who modeled prayer。 the Lord's prayer。 Historical prayer warriors to explore。 think of all the fun you can have writing your own examples with the kids of any time, anyplace, anywhere stories and examples。 Jesus is God and Man。 Hypostatic Union (this would make the book go with even older students)。 The Gospel message。 Thankful to partner with the goodbook company and encourage you to pre-order the book, get the bonuses, and look forward to its September arrival。 I am not an affiliate and do not make any money from the goodbook company- I just love their books and find them so helpful in my home and ministry。 。。。more
