Contest Prize – Bible Battles
We’ve had a new prize donation for the book review writing contest — from none other than Jessica Erskine, faithful Inklings reader. Bible Battles is a unique Bible storybook originally written in the 1900s. Jessica (who is sixteen years old, by the way) rewrote and edited the book for modern audiences, as well as adding illustrations and her own cover art. Here’s the info she sent me about the book:
Bible Battles
By Lettice Bell and Jessica Erskine
Illustrations by Jessica Erskine
Published by Homeway Press
This newly revised edition of this wonderful, but long-forgotten Bible story book tells the stories of Joshua, Gideon and Saul and how they led God’s people in the amazing battles and wars recounted in the pages of the Old Testament. These tales of their mighty exploits and deeds are full of danger, adventure and excitement, but they also remind us clearly of God’s providence and direction in our own lives and what our true goals should be.
Bible Battles can be enjoyed as a story or “read aloud,” or may also be used as an interactive tool to guide young readers into the scriptures themselves.
