God Loves Me More Than That
by Dandi Daley Mackall
The book opens with a scripture from Ephesians 3:17-19, "And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."
Readers will meet a little boy filled with wonder about how much God loves him. The whimsical imagery will surely capture a child’s imagination. It’s so important early in life to develop good self-esteem in a child –that is not self-centered, but God-centered. This book provides a great tool for parents and caregivers to use as they shape a young mind to understanding the depth of God’s love.
