About The Very Best Day: The Way Of Love For Children
Product Description An introduction to the Way of Love for children and their families.“The Way of Love” has become a mantra of Michael B. Curry’s episcopate as presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church. From the royal wedding to the 79th General Convention of the Episcopal Church and continuing today, all ages have been inspired and eager to “grow more deeply with Jesus Christ at the center of our lives, so we can bear witness to his way of love in and for the world.” The Very Best Day: The Way of Love for Children introduces the practices for a Jesus-centered life for children ages 3–10 and their families. Using accessible language and age-appropriate themes, it specifically addresses children and the importance of rhythm and practice in their lives as Christians, accompanied by Roger Hutchison’s familiar and vibrant artwork. Through a cadence of words and colorful images, children will see how to Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go, and Rest in daily life as a follower of Jesus. Learning such wisdom at an early age will benefit children (and the adults who love them). Review Roger has captured the essence of the Way of Love beautifully, while diving even deeper into what it means to live and love like Jesus in the beautiful, sacred, everyday-moments of life. It is a book that can be read to start the day or end the day, a book that can be read at church and on the soccer field, in a classroom and in the car. --From the Foreword by Jerusalem Jackson Greer, Evangelism Office for The Episcopal Church This book is a work of art. The generous layering of paint in its illustrations, coupled with the gentle poetry and depth of its text, creates a moment for readers whether very young, very old, or anywhere in between to reflect on what it means to journey on the Way of Love. --Jennifer Grant, author of Love You More and A Little Blue Bottle It is deeply Anglican and profoundly Christian to care for the spiritual lives of the youngest among us. Roger Hutchison has created a beautiful and accessible resource that is sure to become a classic in the Church. Teaching our kids about Jesus is often a challenging but worthy task. With The Very Best Day, we parents and educators do not have to go it alone. --Sarah Condon, author of Churchy and co-host of The Mockingcast Review "A tool for all who would like to grow in faith as a family, it will make a delightful addition to a home or church library." ––Traci Smith, author of Faithful Families and Prayers for Faithful Families About the Author ROGER HUTCHISON is the Director of Christian Formation and Parish Life at Palmer Memorial Episcopal Church in Houston.
