Description
Book SynopsisGod’s Daring Dozen is the first children’s picture book series ever published on the minor prophets. The twelve books between Daniel and Matthew are unfamiliar to many believers, so this series accurately introduces these inspired writings with vivid images and simple words that engage children and adults alike. Each volume both retells the prophet’s message to his original audience and relates its rich truths to Jesus and God’s people today.
This second boxed set contains:
-
Jonah’s Journeys, which teaches compassion and encourages obedience.
-
Malachi’s Final Message, which teaches respect for and hope in God.
-
Nahum and the Ninevites, which teaches the power and deliverance of God.
-
Joel and the Locusts, which teaches repentance and promises renewal.
The first set includes Haggai, Habakkuk, Zephaniah and Obadiah, and the final set will include Hosea, Amos, Micah, and Zechariah.
God’s Daring Dozen delivers enduring messages that are very much relevant today. These biblically faithful, theologically rich, gospel–centered books teach truth, promote virtue, and inspire faith in God and in His Son. The minor prophets offer major lessons for all ages, and their timeless truths are now shared in story book form for the very first time!
Trade ReviewWith bright illustrations and lots of animal pictures, God’s Daring Dozen provides a fun and helpful way to increase biblical literacy and open some less familiar parts of Scripture to young listeners.

Brian’s and John’s presentation of these undervalued books captures their messages in ways that young readers can grasp and very smoothly weaves them into the larger fabric of the Gospel. An excellent tool for helping children grasp and retain the Gospel as promised in these Old Testament books.

Here is a series that introduces small children to the world and words of biblical prophets. These books fill a large gap in the Christian nurture of young children.

What a great resource for families! Kids’ books on individual books of the Bible. True to Scripture and accessible to little ones. I can’t wait to read these to my own children.

John and Brian have captured the message of these books and packaged them in a form ideal for parents who hope to train their children up in the faith.
