Getting Into The Bible: Diary of a Disciple
Friday 17th February 2017Luke’s story is a contemporary children’s Bible retelling the story of Luke’s Gospel. Written in a quirky, contemporary, accessible style, Diary of a Disciple offers a way into the Bible for the next generation.
Here’s what Matthew Myers, a member of BB Rural Challenge Project had to say after reading the book……
“ I really enjoyed this book because it is written in a way that I understand Luke’s Gospel. It reminds me of Diary of a Wimpy Kid as there are lots of cartoon pictures and interesting ways of writing the words. For example, if the word ‘sinking’ was on a page, then it would look as though the actual word was sinking, with the letters getting lower and lower and lower. I would recommend this book because I‘ve read it from cover to cover and I don’t often do this!”
Diary of a Disciple is published by Scripture Union and is a great resource for BB groups. Diary of a Disciple can be purchased at scriptureunion.org.uk
