I have been conscious as a pastor that Christian parents need, not only to be reminded that the chief responsibility for teaching their children the bible lies with them, but also, helped to know how to do this. This is a superb resource, which is user-friendly, biblically faithful and full of imaginative suggestions of how to communicate God's word to your pre-school children. It will provide great fun as well as spiritual - and physical! - nourishment.

“Great book to introduce the Bible to your Children”

Great book to introduce Bible stories to young children whilst also making yummy treats.. as a young family that home educates this has been a welcomed resource for our curriculum- home economics, Bible study and mathematics all in one!

“Lovely book”

This was a gift for my grandchildren aged 10 and 5. It’s already been a great success with them both and reading the stories during the cooking time is ideal. The star jam tarts with the Christmas story have already been cooked and eaten (in May!). Thoroughly recommend.

“Fantastic resource! ”

I am so thankful for this brilliant resource! We are now four sessions into using 'Bake through the Bible' at our lunchtime Bible Club at school. We only have half an hour and lots of children, so we take all the short-cuts with the baking, but the teaching points are so clear and concise- its just right for the childrens' attention span. The kids (from 4-11years) absolutely love the food related activities and it has helped them to recall the previous learning from the weeks before. It's a great introduction to the Bible for these children and I am absolutely thrilled to have found it! Thank you for putting this resource together and for sharing your wonderful ideas.

“A really interesting way to learn about the Bible ”

The 7 year old little girl whom I gave the book to said it was 'awesome'! I really liked it as the cooking instructions were clear and the links to the Bible stories were great. A really good way to learn about the Bible in a fun way.
My feeling about the 'Cooking through the Bible at Christmas' was the same only I felt the recipes were more interesting so I would rate that at 5 stars.

“Captivating, Exciting and Just Good Fun...for all the ages!”

I bought this book for my mother to use with my niece and nephew. Though their parents are not yet believers, the children LOVE the book and the recipes. My 5 yr old nephew attempted to be uninterested, but upon reading the first story all other toys went to the ground and both children were captivated. Moving in to the kitchen to make creation cookies... the kids absolutely loved it! "Nana makes the best cookies" apparently. The promise cookies - were also a lot of fun - it was great hearing them tell us some of God's promises, though my niece did improvise and add pink food colouring when making the cookies!
I cannot recommend this book enough and pray hard that it leads to ultimate commitment to Christ for all using this exciting and relevant resource.
