Each chapter ends with a personal application and activities.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"If one of the most important goals that Christian parents can have is to strengthen their children's understanding of just who God is, then God's Names by Sally Michael is one of the most important books they should own and use. What a gift this book is to those who long for children to grow a big view of God, wrapped up in rich biblical teaching. May multitudes of children benefit from this practical, winsome and truth-filled book."--Bruce Ware, Professor of Christian Theology, Southern Seminary, Louisville, KY Author of Big Truths for Young Hearts: Teaching and Learning the Greatness of God<br><br>"In our attempts to pass the baton of truth on to the next generation, nothing could be more important than for our children (and their parents!) to be grounded in their understanding of the character and ways of God. God's Names is a wonderful, Scripture-saturated resource for those who desire to plant seeds of faith in the hearts and minds of the children they love and influence."--Nancy Leigh DeMoss, author and Revive Our Hearts radio host<br><br>"Nothing is more important than passing the truths of Scripture to the next generation! Grandparents and parents and all the extended family, as well as those who make up the church of the living God--all have a divine unction to pass along God's truth to the hearts of our children! Sally Michael has given us an excellent tool in God's Names to do just that! As a professor, I will use this resource to recommend to my students who are preparing to be wives and mothers and leaders in woman-to-woman ministries and childhood education. As a grandmother, I have an addition for church bags or Sunday boxes or for joint Bible study with my grandchildren."--Dorothy Kelley Patterson, General Editor of The Woman's Study Bible and Professor of Theology in Woman's Studies, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary<br><br>"Sally Michael's book about the names of God may save someone the trouble in 25 years of writing for a new generation "Your God Is Too Small." I have worked with Sally for 30 years. I love how Bible saturated she is. Best of all the God she sees, savors, and sets forth here is unabashedly big. Not distant and uncaring. But great enough to make his caring count. Promises without power disillusion children. Goodness without greatness grows thin. Without savage sin, massive justice, and a bloody cross, God-talk leaves the children in a dreamworld. I thank God for Sally's faithfulness. May a generation know what solid joys are found in knowing the living God."--John Piper, Pastor for Preaching and Vision, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis, MN<br><br>"What's in a name? For most of us, not very much. We choose a name for a child because we like the sound of it, because it reminds us of someone we love, or because it is part of our family heritage. But for God, a name is not merely a word he assigns to himself; rather it is a description of who he is. Gods names tell us of his character, of his work, of his very essence. As we seek to introduce our children to this God, we do well to introduce him by name. Sally Michael has done us a great service in writing God's Names that we may tell our children not only that God is, but also who he is."--Tim Challies, blogger, author, and social media consultant<br><br>"What's in a name? That's the question behind Sally Michael's unique interactive guide for families. She creatively helps parents to lead their children through a fun and fascinating exploration of the various ways God's names reveal the beauty and power of his character and actions. May the Lord use this little book to help our little ones learn to stand in awe of our great and glorious God!"--Justin Taylor, Managing Editor, ESV Study Bible<br>
