The Acrostic of God is a playful and powerful introduction to God’s character, helping kids ages five to eleven learn who God is from A to Z.
With rhyming verses, vibrant illustrations, and biblical depth, Jonny Gibson and Timothy Brindle lead children through an alphabetical list of God’s names and attributes—from Alpha to Omega. Each page helps kids see not only what God is like but why he is worthy of our love and worship.
Rooted in the rich biblical tradition of acrostic poetry, this book brings theology to life in a way that’s easy to remember and enjoyable to revisit. As the first in the Acrostic Theology for Kids series, it offers a creative and faithful tool for parents, churches, and educators to pass on lasting truth.
- Uses rhyming acrostics to teach children about God’s character in a memorable way.
- Connects kids to the Bible’s own use of alphabet-based poetry, like Psalm 119.
- Features colorful illustrations and age-appropriate theology that engages both hearts and minds.
