Or what of the special ministry to teens who may be at a crossroads in their faith lives? Writing for Christian children covers the gamut of ages, from cradle to college-bound. In this book, we will explore the various types of writing in this specialized ministry and discuss the vast mission field of writing for the Christian children's market. So, are you ready?

If you are looking for a quality childrens Bible study with a proven track record, then Stacey Smiths Children of Faith is just what you need. For many years, we incorporated Children of Faith into our churchs curriculum with tremendous success. The simple structure and solid, biblically-based lessons were easy to use and gave the children a Christian foundation for life. Stacey is a wonderful teacher, mother, and homeschooler, and a superb writer you can count on. Dr. Randy Colver, author, pastor and teacher at Coweta Community Church I home-schooled my four children for twelve years while using Staceys Children of Faith as my Bible curriculum. The Scriptures became very practical and well understood as we studied, prayed, and used the crafts. My children used the prayer guide for years. I believe there are many more children and adults who would genuinely grow in their love and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.Sharlott Williams

“Sowing the Seeds,” the first book in a biblically inspired series for children, introduces the Mice-oples. These delightful, fun, and exciting new characters will bring the Biblical messages of the Old and New Testaments to life for children of all ages. The first book in the series is the retelling of “The Sower and the Seed” parable from Matthew 13. The sower, another name for a farmer, plants seeds that may or may not produce a harvest. He has to worry about all types of problems that could arise throughout the growing season. He knows that there is only one thing that he can do - pray. So what happens to the seeds? Does the farmer have a good harvest? You will have to read the story of “Sowing the Seeds” to find out whether the farmer, through faith and prayer, has a good harvest or not.

It was my hope when writing this book to also plant seeds of faith in our children's hearts. I have nineteen grandkids, and I pray every day that they will find the Lord at a young age, as the world is trying so hard to pull them away. I wanted to write a book that would remind them that Jesus tells them to come to him. If God knows those who are his before they are born, it makes sense that the sooner our children learn about Jesus, the better. Planting the Seeds for Jesus is about a little girl's love for Jesus and how excited she gets when Jesus uses her to share her faith with her friends. In this story, God is using her love for gardening to teach her lessons about him, as she will have to trust him for rain and thank him when he sends it. This is a book about not just how God made the world but how God can talk with her as she reads her Bible and learns to walk with him. It will not only touch our children's hearts but also touch our hearts as we remember God loves it when we come to him like children. You could find yourself reading Planting the Seeds for Jesus to remember how God wants us to love him with a childlike faith.
