This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Sarah Humphrey talk to Eric and Meredith Schrotenboer about their latest book This Special Blessing for You.

God is full of love for your children, and This Special Blessing for You empowers them to live out who God wants them to be in the world. Encourage the kids in your life to spread love and kindness with this engaging rhyming picture book.

Today is the day the world gets to see,

the beautiful person God made you to be.

Wherever you go, it’s God’s love you’re expressing,

so God sends you out with this special blessing.

This Special Blessing for You uses words and phrases that help children better understand what God wants to communicate to them. Each promise and declaration is based on the Aaronic Blessing found in Numbers 6:23–27: “The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; The Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”

Children ages 4–8 will delight in these spiritual takeaways:

God loves you so much and delights in your presence
Every child is God’s beautiful creation.
God fills you with power and strength to be who God calls you to be.
You carry God’s name wherever you go.
You show the world what God is like by how you love and serve one another.
