S4Ep23: Who Am I and Why Do I Matter?
This week Amy and Mike talk with author Chris Morphew about his new book, Who Am I and Why Do I Matter?, Part of his Big Questions Series.
Sooner or later, kids ask big questions about themselves and their faith: Who am I? Where do I fit in? Am I good enough? What do people think of me? What does God think of me?
In this warm, empathetic book, Chris Morphew shows children how to embrace and enjoy their identity as those loved by God and made in his image. He also gives lots of practical advice on how to remember what God says about who they really are.
Lively stories and illustrations make this book easy for 9-13 year olds to engage with. Readers will be helped to replace fear and anxiety with faith and confidence as they find their self-worth in what God says about them.
