The Freebie Round-Up #161

I’m so stoked! I had a glimpse of an early copy of one of the books we have been translating for years now.

I will share the physical copies to our church and if possible to a reader if I can do a raffle. Keep on praying for it and more updates coming soon.

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

Hello guys! It’s time to dive in to some newly released and upcoming children’s books that matters. It seems that these books (and I hope all books) have the same goal: to point them to Christ. There different approaches done by each books here that(spoiler!) they all deserve a high flying score of 5 (which is the highest). So let’s look at each one and if you like my reviews, please purchase these books. Another reminder is, there are free downloads which serves as extra stuff from the books published by The Good Book Company.

My First ABC Book of Bible Verses (Jonathan Gibson and Mike Mullan, New Growth Press) Make My First ABC Book of Bible Verses first on the list of books that your kids will dive into. The words that represent the A to Z  here are not the usual ones. The words here are part of a Bible verse that touches different topics that points to God. The verses are short just enough for the kids to read or memorize and you can say some kudos to the author on how he picked out those passages. So passages are familiar and some are not but you’ll be glad the author included them here.

The Freebie Round-Up #153

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.

Quick Reviews 07/07/2023

As much as I enjoy reading books in digital format (i.e. PDF and epub) mostly review copies, I also love to have a physical copy of books. I received two books from our biblical counseling course and I started reading one of them (which is included in this review post). It’s been awhile since I read an actual book, so it feels like rediscovering reading again. It’s a weird feeling as I touch the cover, the spine and turn the page (not scrolling it on a screen).
