Dark to Light

About the Book

Dark to Light takes children and families on an engaging journey through the Bible’s greatest story—from the very beginning of creation to the hope of eternal life through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Written in clear, age-appropriate language, the book introduces young readers to how God created the world in six days, formed Adam and Eve in His image, and declared His creation to be good. As the story unfolds, children learn how sin entered the world through Adam and Eve’s disobedience, bringing brokenness and separation from God. Rather than ending with humanity’s fall, the book points readers to the heart of the Christian faith: God’s plan of redemption. It reveals how the Lord sent us Jesus to live a perfect life, die on the cross for our sins, and rise from the dead three days later, making forgiveness and a restored relationship with God possible for everyone who believes in Him. Designed to be read together by parents and children, Dark to Light combines biblical teaching with fun interactive elements. The final chapters explain how children can respond to the Gospel and begin a lifelong walk of faith.
