Book: I AM

Author: Diane Stortz

Creator, Comforter, Healer, Friend. God’s names tell us who He is, what He is like, and what He does. This beautiful book covers 40 of the Bible’s many names and descriptive titles for God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, including Jehovah Jireh, The Lord My Shepherd, Immanuel, Rabbi, and I AM.
 
Through Bible stories, short devotions, and prayers, children discover the meaning of each name and how it relates to their lives. As they develop an understanding of God’s character and His love for them, children will grow to know, love, and trust the great I AM more and more.

My Thoughts on I AM: 

What a great book for children. This has worked wonderfully as a devotional at night before bed. I AM is well written and engaging.  

The cover is gorgeous and all of the illustrations inside are more of the same wonderful artwork.  It really captivates my children and keeps them listening when otherwise they might have stopped.  

I really enjoyed this book myself as well.  There is a lot of learning to be done about God and who He is and I love this as it teaches children who God is and 40 of His wonderful names. 

This is a book that you’re going to want to keep on your bookshelf for years to come.  I also think this would be a good book to have in a church library or in a Sunday School classroom.  Happy reading!

More from Diane

You can often guess someone’s age by considering their name. Diane, for example, was popular in the 1950s, so . . . that tells you something about me.

But God’s personal name? Well, it’s ageless. Just like Him.

When Moses met God at the burning bush and received the task of leading the Israelites out of Egypt, he wasn’t exactly thrilled at first. He peppered God with questions, including, “When I tell the people that I met you here and you gave me this assignment, they’re going to want to know your name. What should I tell them?”

The Israelites had just about forgotten who the God of their fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was.

But God hadn’t forgotten them. Not at all. God told Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. . . . Say this to the people of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:14).

I AM WHO I AM. I always have been. I will always be. I will never change.

Choosing a book title is rarely easy, and choosing a title for this book about the names of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit took a long time. I couldn’t be more grateful to the Tommy Nelson publishing team who developed and settled on the title I AM: 40 Reasons to Trust God.

My prayer for every child who reads this book and every family that goes through the book together, and for myself: May we all grow mightily in our understanding of who God is and our relationship with Him! As Psalm 9:10 says, “Those who know your name put their trust in you.”
