Jesus and Me

How an eight-year-old girl will introduce your daughter to a friendship with Jesus.

Jesus and Me uses the story of Imma to help your child understand how friendship with Jesus is possible.

As a parent (of a nine-year-old girl) and children's author myself, I see the other stories that society is feeding our children. Stories are powerful. Stories live us and change us.

So when God put on my heart the the story of a little girl who struggled to come to faith in Jesus—but who has a beautiful faith-building victory—I knew I should write it. It will influence the heart of your child for Christ.

So what's the story?

Imma is 8 and she's praying for a hero to make the world a better place. She sees that things are wrong—and she hopes for a warrior to come. When she meets Jesus, she sees he has the power, but he won't use force or violence like the bad guys. Why won't he just snap his fingers and change the world?

Jesus and Me is the story of a girl who had questions for the Son of God and wasn't afraid to ask them.
