Bible stories about God's love

Before a child can trust God or obey Him, they need to know that they are loved by Him, completely and first. These are the stories that say it plainly: the shepherd who counts to ninety nine and goes looking for one, the crowd nobody expected Jesus to feed, the God who made every colour of skin on purpose.

Read them often. Children need to hear that they are loved more than once, and so do we.

“See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God!”

1 John 3:1
