"Filled with exquisite art, this devotional tells the creation story with grace and beauty with an added twist of fun activities to delight the entire family." Christine Pollock, Feature Writer for Children's TV,  Suite101.com

“God Creates” is a must-have for everyone who has children-- for everyone who has ever recognized God’s hands at work in the beauty of the natural world. This is an heirloom. Grandparents, toddlers, and everyone in between are drawn-in and charmed by this passionate and vibrating picture book. Energy streams out of every page as the reader engages the wrinkled, loving hands of God unfolding creation. In this book, God’s hands-on involvement with His creation compels us, the created, to take a fresh look at an old, old story. It is a story of the ages—a story grounded in the truth of scripture. The book takes the reader through the first chapter of Genesis. Each of the seven days of creation lures the viewer ever deeper into a unique vision of a timeless mystery. We first see God’s Spirit hover in quiet and solitude over the surface of the deep. This peaceful scene is suddenly shattered by an explosion of power released as God divides light from dark. He warms to His omnipotent task and pours himself into the creation of water and its creatures, air, land, birds, and an enormous, buzzing, flurry of plants and animals squirming to life out of thick, miry clay. The God-hands in “God Creates” are powerful yet gentle and loving. They show us a God who is always intimately involved and always willing to get His hands dirty in the sometimes messy creative process. These huge hands stay busy throughout the book, grabbing, squeezing, coaxing, shoving, spreading, approving, splashing, sprinkling, holding, molding and finally resting. From the fiery, nuclear explosion of separating light from darkness to the serene and intimate scene where He gently pinches and forms Man out of clay, we see a passionate God who is deeply in love with all that He has made. This book offers another way to enjoy the wonders of creation with your child. The second half of “God Creates” has an activities section for parents. For each day of creation, there is a corresponding activity page to go along with it. It includes prayer suggestions, discussion starters, activities, ideas for family rituals and traditions, ways to deepen faith by applying scripture to daily life, encouraging children to develop a personal relationship with the God of the universe who is all powerful and who has created each one of them with care, intentionality, and love. After reading this book you will feel that you know God a little bit better. You will never again look at our natural world with the same eyes.
