    God and Me, by Marty Machowski

    Today, Roberta talks to Marty Machowski about his new children's book God and Me: The First Story, available from New Growth Press publishers. God and Me leads young readers on a Bible study of the first three chapters of Genesis that they can do all on their own. What better way to encourage our children to love God’s Word than to provide them with a tool to study the Bible for themselves? Best-selling author Marty Machowski invites kids to engage God through a Bible study written just for them. Readers will explore their “first story,” from the beginning of Genesis, learning who God is, how they are made to reflect God, how the world got messed up, and how Jesus can restore them. God and Me is written in an activity book format with a conversational tone. Each of the fifteen lessons invites children to explore the foundational stories of Genesis through activities, memorization, and personal applications. Readers are also invited to share what they have learned with their friends. God and Me: The First Story–Genesis 1–3 is the first in the Bible Study for Kids series, engaging children ages 7–11 in an interactive Bible study on their level. Each study will ground children in Scripture and the gospel so that they can build their lives on Jesus and his Word.  Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Through honest storytelling and gospel-centered teaching, this book explores how singles can steward their lives, relationships, resources, and unique experiences with intentionality and eternal hope. Each chapter unpacks various aspects of faithful stewardship: recognizing God’s redemption, investing in relationships, thriving in resilience, and living with an eternal perspective. LaGeorge addresses real questions about identity, sexuality, and belonging, equipping singles to live with joy and confidence within the family of God. She also offers recommendations for church leaders and families to better support, encompass, and learn from singles in every stage of life.
