This year’s giveaway includes a little something for all the little (and not so little ones in your life). For the preschooler in your life: Little Bunny's Bible - The Little Bunny’s Bible is a soft, cuddly Bible that children age 2-5 can call their own.

For the early elementary schooler in your life: Miracles of Jesus (I Can Read! / Adventure Bible) - Miracle of Jesus is a level two I Can Read! based on the NIV Adventure Bible. In it, young readers read about how great God’s love is for all people. At this read-alone level, newly independent readers follow Jesus as he travels, spreading the Good News of his Father’s love. Along the way, Jesus shows in wondrous ways just how powerful God’s love is when he brings health back to a young girl and a long-suffering woman, and how he gives comfort to thousands of believers with a delicious meal as well as the precious word of God.
For the preteen: The Case For Grace for Kids - What does “grace” really mean? How can God’s grace impact your life? How can you experience grace every day? This new book by New York Times bestselling author, Lee Strobel, shows how God’s love is for everyone—no matter what. Through stories of everyday people whose lives have been changed, you will discover God’s love and the power of forgiveness. You will experience God’s amazing grace and be able to share it with others.
For the teen: You Have a Brain: A Teen’s Guide to Think Big, - Throughout his life, renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Benjamin Carson has needed to overcome many obstacles: His father leaving the family; being considered stupid by his classmates in grade school; growing up in inner-city Detroit; and having a violent temper. But Dr. Carson didn't let his circumstances control him, and instead discovered eight principles that helped shape his future. In You Have a Brain: A Teen’s Guide to Think Big, Dr. Carson unpacks the eight important parts of Thinking Big—Talent, Honesty, Insight, being Nice, Knowledge, Books, In-Depth learning, and God—and presents the stories of people who demonstrated those things in his life. By applying the idea of T.H.I.N.K. B.I.G. to your life, and by looking at those around you as well, you too can overcome obstacles and work toward achieving your dreams. This book includes discussion questions at the back of the book.

These look great, Corine. I love Dr. Carson. We have two of his books. One of them, Gifted Hands, is so powerful. I love his story.

I always remember going to the sunrise easter morning service at church and having an easter egg hunt on my grandparents farm

my greatest memory of Easter is having Easter at my parents and us all going to church, then as we all got older and had our own kids each grandchild would "pop" the eggs on my dad's head then he would chase after them as much as he could being crippled He would also no matter what, hide eggs in each of his pockets. Shirts, ;pants, overalls, didn't matter. Also each child was "given" the opportunity to give my dad an egg before he "stole" one LOL. Easter was my dad's favorite holiday and he LOVED his grandchildren

Hunting for Easter Eggs, then feeding the boiled eggs to my pet pig Lilly! Which just so happens my dad shot one Easter Sunday several years ago. Strange memory I know, but it has stuck with me.

My favorite Easter memory is when my mother made me a green and white dress with a matching green coat to wear on Easter. The most important thing about that Easter was I was 10 years old and finally understood what Easter was truely about. It was't about the eggs or the dress that my mother had made me but about the man the rose on the third day so that I could live and this was the way my Sunday school teacher explained it. She said that we serve a living God not one on the cross. She explain that because he got up out of the grave he was alive in a different way not flesh and blood like us; but in the spirit and He lives in each of us. I thank God for bing the giver of life
