Synopsis

Julia Bland comes to the aid of busy pastors and teachers with more practical, easy-to-prepare children's messages and activity pages. Based on the Psalms, the lessons call youngsters' attention to the many blessings we enjoy every day and teach them to praise God for all he does for us. Puzzles and coloring pages keep their interest while reinforcing the message.

Praises From The Psalms is down-to-earth, graphic, imaginative -- children can see and touch and experience. And it's the Bible that they receive, not shallow sentimentality. These brief activity sermons are a rare combination -- God's joyous truth at a child's level -- perfect for every church.
Richard B. Wilke, retired bishop
Arkansas Conference, United Methodist Church

One of the most important tasks for the church is providing spiritual education for children. It may also be one of the hardest to accomplish. How can one speak of the mysteries of God and faith in a way that a child can understand? Julia Bland has given ministers and volunteers who work with children an invaluable resource to help them do just that. This volume of children's sermons, based on the Psalms, emphasizes the nature of our relationship with God. The suggested sermons are biblically based and draw on common life experiences to illustrate the points. The activity pages reinforce the biblical teaching and offer a selection of fun activities for the child. Praises From The Psalms will be a great tool for the ministry of the church.
