Grandma's Answers

A grandmother answers questions from children, ages four to nine, about God. Answers are based on simplification of biblical accounts. The author recommends that for older children, parents read each question and answer, discuss it, and then read the relevant verses from the Bible. Allow children to understand each concept before moving to the next.

"In the beginning" (Genesis 1:1, 1:15–27, Genesis 2:1–3; Matthew 3:16–17).

"In the garden" (Genesis 2:8–9, Genesis 2:15–19, Genesis 3:1–6).

"Heaven" (Genesis 1:8, 14–15; Matthew 6:9–10; 18:2–6; Deuteronomy 10:14).

"Talking to God" (Exodus 3:2-6, Exodus 34:1–2; Jeremiah 1:4–8; John 14:14–15).

"God's family" (Hebrews1:2; Matthew 12:50; Romans 8:15–16; Ephesians 3:14–16).
