As a grandma/ mom I know there is nothing more important than handing down confident faith to the ones I love. I wish I knew when my children were young and when my grandchildren were younger, handing down confident faith must include teaching the "whys" - why we are able to believe God is real, the Bible is true, God and science DO go together, and God is good - just as we teach the "whats" - what the Bible says and therefore what we believe. It is essential for us to teach the "whys", but sadly, there are not many resources to help us do this. There are some, but not many.
Happily, one resource which is easy and fun to use is the Life on the Goldilocks Planet books! There are twelve single books in the series (and three four-book combo books.) Each book will capture the attention of the children you love (and your attention as well) as you learn about amazing animals - many of which you may never have heard of before! For example, look at the book Megabats, Bengal Tigers, Quetzals & More! - in it you will find Megabats, Wolverines, Andean Cock-of-the-Rock, Giant Clams, Bengal Tigers, Clown Frogfish, Hellbenders, Orangutans, Wombats, Elephantnose Fish, Tasmanian Devils, and Quetzals! Which of these have you never heard of before? Interesting, surprising, and just plain fun animals - sure to capture your attention, and the attention of the ones you love.
But these books are about more than just capturing your attention - they will equip you to engage the ones you love in important conversations, so you are able to learn the "whys" and hand down confident faith.
So, if you are looking for something to get the children you love to help them have a confident faith, for a birthday, or for a resource sure to add fun and learning to your time together, check out the Life on the Goldilocks Planet series on Amazon and at this link. This is the perfect time to get a book, or two, in the Life on the Goldilocks Planet book series - Megabats, Bengal Tigers, Quetzals & More! is certainly an interesting and fun book with which to start! (And, the answer to the question is the Wolverines! Learn more about it, and Orangutans and Bengal Tigers in Megabats, Bengal Tigers, Quetzals & More! )
