This week Amy and Mike talked with author Amy Gannett about her Tiny Theologians series.

Kids ask questions like this about God all the time. We want our answers to show them the God who IS, the God of the Bible. Amy Gannett’s Tiny Theologians® series teaches young readers about God’s all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-present nature.

Did God Learn His ABCs? A Book About God’s Knowledge

Did God ever go to school? Does God need someone to teach him? Is there anything God doesn’t know? The engaging, rhyming text and bold, delightful illustrations make God’s omniscience (His all-knowing nature) understandable, relatable, and applicable for kids. Young readers will close the book knowing there’s no need to hide their sins, questions, or dreams from God—for He already knows everything about them.

Does God Sleep? A Book About God’s Power

Does God ever get tired? Does He sometimes get sick? Does He ever stop working? The engaging, rhyming text and bold, delightful illustrations make God’s omnipotence (His all-powerful nature) understandable, relatable, and applicable for kids. Young readers will close the book knowing there’s no need to fear when falling asleep—for God is always awake, watching over us and working in the world.

Does God Go on Vacation? A Book About God’s Presence

Does God ever leave Heaven? Does He take vacations? Will He ever go somewhere where He can’t hear our prayers? The engaging, rhyming text and bold, delightful illustrations make God’s omnipresence (His all-present nature) understandable, relatable, and applicable for kids. Young readers will close the book knowing there’s no need to worry about today or tomorrow—for God never takes a vacation! He is always with us.

Amy Gannett (M.Div, Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary) is a speaker, writer, and Bible teacher. She is the author of several exegetical Bible studies.
