How to use this resource
Designed to use digitally as a pdf, these resources provide a framework for exploration and wondering about the stories of the Bible, about God, God’s people, and how these people respond to God through the ages.
Start with the provided paraphrase, but feel free to use your own Bibles, storybooks, and eventually re-tell them in your own words as they become more familiar. Use the questions as jumping-off points to go deeper and explore the stories. This is designed for parents, grandparents, and other caretakers to read with children, but it can be adapted for all ages.
