During the Christmas season, the volume "All year long with God - 365 stories and prayers" was published by the Keresztyén Magvető Publishing House, which operates next to the Ipolyság Reformed pastor's office. The faith-deepening gap-filling publication is mainly addressed to preschool and elementary school children and their parents.
The Bible verses were supplemented with simple, easy-to-understand explanations for children, prayers, and beautiful illustrations. The child joins Kati, Zsuzsi, Pisti and Pali, and thus learns to walk with God every day - reads the book's subtitle. Publications with a similar theme are difficult to find in Hungarian, so the volume published in Ipolyság fills a gap in the field of Christian literature.
One of the translators of the publication, Izsmán Adél, told Felvidék.ma that the book provides an opportunity for families to familiarize children with biblical truths from a very young age.
The constant characters of the devotions are four small children, whose lives the children can easily identify with.
The design of the book is practical. A small story is told for each day of the year with an added short verse and prayer. In this way, the book will accompany your little reader throughout the year. The child can pick up the publication and get to know the short story for the current day. Through this book, you can learn something important about God every time. And through devotions, he experiences how to be in relationship with God.
"I was very happy that this book could be published in Hungarian, as I have been reading and translating the Slovak version to my children for years. They always look forward to the next lesson with great pleasure, and are happy to talk about the topics raised in the book. I warmly recommend it to all those who want to raise their children in the faith from the very beginning," said Adél Izsmán.
The text and content of the short stories are adapted to the age of the target audience. The story of the given day, the prayer and the hymn are colored by lovely illustrations. The book was illustrated by Care Bears artist Elena Kucharik.
This is not the first publication for children by Keresztyén Magvetű. At the beginning of 2020, Adél Izmán's book "Lead Our Jesus" was published, which contains thirty short stories taken from life, accompanied by biblical explanations.
The child can walk with God throughout the year. The book can be ordered at the link below from Keresztyén Magvető Kiadó!
