Sometimes, as adults, we forget to teach our kids what prayer really is – it’s talking to God. We don’t allow or show our kids that we pray all throughout the day. Or, maybe, we’re not talking to God as we should be, so the kids don’t have an example of pray without ceasing. Whatever the case, there are times that we need to remember to teach our kids that prayer is not just a ritual. It’s genuine communication with God.
In That’s When I Talk to God, kids will see examples of how they can talk to God in many different situations. The cute story will open their eyes to how to talk to God and give them reasons why they may want to talk to God more than just at meals or before bed. The story also shows some ways that God talks to us. Young or old, we can all use the reminder to talk to God more each day.
Book Description:
A little girl discovers that prayer is more than a bedtime ritual; she can talk to God anytime, in any place, and about any thing.
As a little girl says her bedtime prayers, her mother asks a simple question that sparks a powerful discovery: “You know we can pray to him any time we want to, right?” With that, the little girl suddenly finds things to talk to God about everywhere—in her garden, in a friend’s backyard, and on the soccer field. The girl’s prayer life will never be the same.
That’s When I Talk to God is a sweet story that will deepen the prayer lives of children four to eight. This charmingly illustrated tale steps beyond explaining prayer and models constant communication with God.
