“This virgin birth was the beginning of what God was going to do in Christ’s incarnation. He had brought life to a virgin’s womb; now he would keep on doing the seemingly impossible through the life, death, and resur-rection of his Son. The virgin birth was a sign of much, much more.”

September’s Quick Reviews (Children’s Book Edition)

A mix bag of the new from The Good Book Company and last year’s release from New Growth Press which are all dripping with awesomeness!

What Are Hands For? and What Are Mouths For? (Abbey Wedgeworth and Emma Randall, The Good Book Company)

Basically the two books have the same content. I like how the story flows into something basic, to something moral, then about Jesus,the gospel and finally, Christian living powered by the Holy Spirit. I enjoy it and I can say this is a “complete”, not just big in moral or focus on just this part of the Christian experience, but the author really had it balanced for your children’s reading pleasure.

“By our fall in Adam we became slaves to Satan, and God might have condemned us to labor all the days of the week. But He has given us a reprieve for one day. His providence so orders it that men in all conditions shall participate in the curse and eat the fruit of the earth in the sweat of their face. Is it not then a blessing when He gives us one day of rest?”

Comicbook Review: Voices of The Martyrs (Ben Avery, Art Ayris and Various Artists)

Summary: Journey through the early church and meet the martyrs with this 500 pages omnibus from Kingstone Comics. This 23 story, fully-illustrated and full-colored comics from previous one-shot releases, and some are from other collections. Perhaps some are created for this volume. Some previously released comics included here have extra stuff so be on the look out with that. This might be the first volume of a “series”, it pretty much covered all the apostles, Mary mother of Jesus and a few Christians martyrs outside the Bible. It’s a great way to show that Christian persecutions are not exclusive inside the New Testament.

Previously, I reviewed a comicbook titled Martyrs which is also about Christian martyrs. It’s short but it has four good stories. That comic is an appetizer for this massive buffet that I read and reviewed. The only difference is that they carry stories outside the Bible.
