In a world that often feels dark, this book is a reminder to us allyoung and oldabout Gods light in us and in the world. Jamie Ivey, author, speaker, and host of The Happy Hour podcast This is a book filled with light. Children will remember these important truths about Gods image and human dignity for years to come. Their parents will too. Russell Moore, Public Theologian at Christianity Today and director of Christianity Todays Public Theology Project One of the most foundational truths I want to teach my own children is that each human beingwithout exceptionis made in Gods image with the potential to reflect His light. The Biggest, Best Light conveys this biblical reality with evocative images and storytelling. It will be a new bedtime classic in our house. Matthew Soerens, author, US director of church mobilization and advocacy for World Relief, and national coordinator of the Evangelical Immigration Table Being an image-bearer is like being a mirror reflecting the light of Gods character into the world. With this captivating book, Darling and Stensrud help kids grasp at an early age the dignity and diversity of that design. More than that, they help form children for the beautiful mission of shining Gods light in a darkened world. Glenn Packiam, pastor and author of The Resilient Pastor Bri and Dan have accomplished quite the feat: They have written a message with the rare ability to grow with our kids. Both theologically rich and universally accessible, this book will guide our children to new spiritual depths as they age.
