The Acrostic of God is a joy to read and reread, and a wonderful tool to help kids absorb eternal truth about God.

By giving children an alphabetical list of the titles and attributes of God written with a rhyming beat, Jonathan Gibson and Timothy Brindle make The Acrostic of God fun to read and easy to memorize. Each characteristic, A to Z, weaves together a beautiful picture of God.

Using the alphabet to teach about God has a rich history in the Bible, especially in the Psalms and Lamentations. Several of the psalms - notably Psalm 119 - begin with letters of the Hebrew alphabet, forming an acrostic that spells out the entire alphabet.

The authors make learning theology fun and effortless. Their book shows God as he is, not "just to know about him more in our brains, but to know him as the God of glory who reigns."

Illustrated by C. S. Fritz, The Acrostic of God is the first in the Acrostic Theology for Kids series that introduces children ages 5-11 to systematic theology uniquely on their age level.
