Last year, my first children’s book released, titled Tell God How You Feel. My intention for the book was that parents would use it as a discipleship resource in helping their children learn how to lament—how to bring their emotions to the Lord in prayer.
I’m excited to announce that a follow up to that book, God Hears Your Heart, will release on May 13. This book follows the same family from Tell God How You Feel. In this book, children will see how Josh and Mia learn how to talk to God about feelings such as: anger, disappointment, failure, and more. Discussion questions help parents talk about these emotions with their children.
Here’s what readers are saying about the book:
“If emotions are complex for adults (AKA, me!) to understand and respond to appropriately, how much more for children? This is why I’m so glad Christina has given us a helpful tool for guiding our kids through emotions like disappointment, anger, and failure. Best of all, she roots each lesson in biblical truth, particularly in the psalms which give voice to our hearts. I recommend this book to you!”
—Kristen Wetherell (Author of Humble Moms, Fight Your Fears, and co–author of Hope When It Hurts)
“… a wonderful resource for children. It accomplishes the difficulty task of turning children toward the Lord with their hard and unruly emotions without moralizing or excusing. Especially good on the disappointments every young human struggles to deal with and full of good advice and easy engagement for parents, this book is a must on every child’s bookshelf!”
— Alasdair Groves (Executive Director of CCEF)
