    S9Ep27: Thank You for Loving Me, and other things your pet wants you to know.

    This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer talk with author Jennifer Marshall Bleakley about her new book, Thank You for Loving Me, and other things your pet wants you to know. When someone you love loses an animal friend, it’s hard to know how to comfort them. There are no right words and no easy answers—just a deep ache where a beloved companion used to be. What they long for most is reassurance: that their pet felt every bit of their love—and that their love still lives on. Written entirely from the pet’s perspective, Thank You for Loving Me (Tyndale Momentum, August 2026) offers the words every grieving heart longs to hear: “Thank you for loving me. Thank you for giving me a wonderful life. Thank you for being my best friend.” And“I’ll always love you.” As a former grief counselor, author Jennifer Marshall Bleakley knew about grief on an intellectual level, but she developed a new understanding of the various emotions that emerge for someone who is grieving after saying goodbye to the first of two dogs that she has now lost. She said, “When I was counseling, I knew how to run a bereavement group, how to utilize active listening, and when to refer someone for more specialized help. But it wasn’t until I lost my first beloved Golden retriever, Sunny, that I experienced grief on a heart level—on a level no book or theory can fully explain or prepare one for.” A heartfelt and compassionate way to honor both the loss and the love that remains, this beautifully designed four-color gift book will provide a soft place to land in the midst of grief, as well as a quiet space to reflect, process, and begin to heal. ------------------------------------------------------ The Bible for Kids is now a 501 (c) (3) non-profit, and we'd love to have you join us in our mission of reaching kids with the message of the Bible.

Readers will follow 10-year-old Patrick as he draws silly comics about his weird life. Just how weird is Patrick’s life? It’s so weird that Patrick gets yanked out of his room and into the Bible! In each book, Patrick meets a different Bible character who acts as a tour guide through a portion of the Bible. In Over My Head, Patrick meets Moses, who leads him on a journey through biblical events from Genesis to Deuteronomy. In his journal, Patrick records all of his bizarre Bible adventures (BBAs for short). Most of the journal covers Patrick’s weird daily life entries with flashbacks to a relevant Bible adventure. Of course, this journal has to be kept secret, as he’s convinced everyone would think he was crazy! To be clear, Patrick’s journal does NOT tell the real Bible stories. It’s about his Bible adventures. This is not a Bible storybook but rather a creative, humorous kid adventure that also teaches preteens about the Bible. Packed with funny illustrations for reluctant readers, this Christian graphic novel features: Scripture references so kids can look up the Bible stories Patrick experiencesLaugh-out-loud humor to keep young readers hooked while they learn about the Old TestamentUplifting themes to help biblical values take root in children’s imaginations As kids follow Patrick’s zany life, they’ll be inspired to dive into their own Bibles and uncover the adventure God has for them.

    Helping Kids Stay Engaged in Church: The New Faith-Based Journal for Ages 7–11 from the Creators of GO BibleWhat if kids could stay focused during church, remember what they learned, and grow deeper in their faith every week? That's the goal behind Sunday Scribbles, a year-long Christian journal for kids ages 7–11 designed to help children actively engage during church services, Sunday school, children's church, and family worship. Created by the team behind GO Bible, this interactive journal transforms passive listening into meaningful spiritual growth. With five rotating weekly layouts, Sunday Scribbles appeals to multiple learning styles through writing, drawing, coloring, reflection, and fun listening activities. The result is a screen-free tool that helps children pay attention, retain biblical truths, and apply what they learn to everyday life. Each weekly spread includes space for kids to: • Record the date, lesson title, and favorite worship song • Color and reflect on Scripture-based artwork from the New Living Translation (NLT) • Play "Sermon Bingo" by listening for key faith words such as Jesus, God, prayer, faith, and worship • Reflect on how the lesson applies to their own lives • Take notes on new Bible truths they discover Beyond the weekly activities, Sunday Scribbles includes valuable discipleship resources for children: • A kid-friendly glossary of Christian terms • An overview of the major themes in every book of the Bible • An explanation of worship and why it matters • A Lord's Prayer coloring activity • Practical guidance for following Jesus every day • A GO Bible map tracing Israel's journey from Egypt to the Promised Land Whether used at church, Sunday school, children's ministry, or at home, Sunday Scribbles becomes a personal faith keepsake that helps children track their spiritual growth throughout the year. How Sunday Scribbles Connects to GO BibleThe mission of GO Bible has always been to help kids move beyond simply knowing Bible stories to actually living out their faith. Sunday Scribbles reinforces that mission by helping children move what they learn from their heads into their hearts. As kids listen, reflect, write, and respond to God's Word, they begin developing habits of faith that lead to action. The promise of GO Bible is simple: "When God calls, it's time to GO." Faith leads to action, and Sunday Scribbles helps children take the next step by engaging with God's truth in a way that is personal, memorable, and life-changing.
