Quantity

The Old Testament is full of shadows... And when we look at these shadows, we can see something that looks a lot like Jesus.

In this beautifully illustrated book, author Nancy Guthrie, helps children and adults spot the shadows of Jesus on every page of the Bible. Through Bible stories familiar and unfamiliar, children will discover Jesus as God’s Lamb, the Lion of Judah, Savior of the World and so much more…

I See Jesus

With words from Nancy Guthrie, a trusted source on all things biblical theology, and illustrations by Jen Brake, who brings stories in the 'A Child Should Know' series to life, I See Jesus is a creative way of helping children connect Jesus to Old Testament stories and characters.

(As an employee of 10ofThose, I received a copy of this book for free, but was not required to give a positive review.)

Seeing Jesus in Shadows

This book is an excellent resource for showing kids (and adults alike!) how the varied stories in the Old Testament, and even in the New, contain events, people, and symbols that all point towards Jesus. There are many deeply packed truths in this short book! It will aide children in understanding the deeper meaning of Scripture, which will come in handy as they grow older and study the Scriptures for themselves. On top of being very visually appealing, the images also illustrate these truths; for example, the shadow behind Judah being blessed by Jacob is in the shape of a lion, pointing to Jesus, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, and the shadow behind the bronze serpent on the pole that Moses held up is in the shape of a cross, pointing to His crucifixion as our only hope for salvation. The illustrations really bring home the message of the book in a way that kids can easily understand. My favorite part of the book is the last two pages where Nancy Guthrie explains how we see our shadow "in all of God’s people who waited for Jesus to come the first time." You'll have to read the book to find out how we can see our own shadow in the saints of old, and how the author cleverly ties the message together in the end.


I do work for 10ofThose and received a copy of this book for free, but this is my honest review of it!
