- 365 passages to practice the reading strategy throughout a year
- A time-tested 52-week plan for use in small group with content and activity outlines or in family discipleship to aid kids in learning the Bible
- 104 key memory verses, two for each week of the year
Whether kids take this book to church, use it in their quiet time or homeschool curriculum, or simply read it on their own or with a parent or friend, Discovering the Bible is a reliable Bible study companion. It will set a foundation for kids to read the Bible better, and therefore, know and love God more.
