Synopsis

Rigley had Annabelle's heart as soon as he jumped into her lap and kissed her on the nose. This adorable bunny brings the story behind the story of the redbird. God Is Near engages the imagination with a charming story showing how God speaks His message of love through His creation. Using signs and wonders, God teaches children that He walks with them through sadness, loneliness, or whatever life brings their way. He shows how He hears and answers prayers, but most of all, He assures children that they will never be alone because He is always near.

About this title

About the Author

Jan Jenkins Carter left the corporate world of marketing and is now a stay-at-home "Registered Mom" who is crazy about her husband, children, family, and friends. But her passions are Jesus and her God-given gift of encouraging others. Whether she's leading a Bible study, writing, speaking or having private lunch meetings with people who need God's embrace, Jan feels it is her honor and privilege to pour God's hope and unconditional love into anyone willing to listen. A visual learner, Jan is thankful God’s Word incorporates illustrations, stories, and word pictures so that we can understand and relate to God. It is with a sense of whimsy, coupled with powerful biblical truths, that Jan penned her first book, God Is Near. The book is based on a much-beloved true story passed down for generations within her family. Jan wanted to share the impact the story has had on her own life, such as the simple but profound truths it taught: God is near, He hears and answers our prayers, and He uses signs, wonders, imagination, and miracles to reveal himself to us. Jan can talk the ears off a billy goat and brings laughter to most situations. She believes that you should worship instead of worry. She enjoys painting, potting flowers, decorating, girl's beach trips, snow skiing, fires in the fireplace, hot buttered popcorn and Raisinets at the movies, her husband's blue eyes and his love for the Lord, holidays with family, the smiles of her children, praise and worship, giving gifts, and the precious sound of her mother's voice. Jan resides in Birmingham, Alabama with her husband of thirty-six years and her adorable daughter and two sons. She loves life, her family, and her home, and she thinks she has an addiction to Pine-Sol®, Windex®, Pledge®, and Miracle-Gro®!
