“God’s Goodness for the Chosen” is an interactive Bible study revealing how God brings good things out of bad situations. It deals with grief, heartbreak, pain, confusion, and more. I love how it illuminates the love and light of God and how He brings us through these hard times. Perseverance is succeeding at something despite the difficulties we face. And Perseverance builds character.

If you’ve watched Season 4 of The Chosen series, this study is a bonus element. The 8 lessons follow the 8 episodes and are suitable for small group or individual study.

The language used is easy to understand and has a conversational tone to it. Nothing preachy or stodgy. The feature I enjoy the most are the “For Bible Nerds (like us) Who Want to Know” sections, highlighting something special within each lesson. The guide also includes prayers, Scripture verses, thought-provoking questions, maps, charts, and more to encourage and inspire you to dig deeper and see and accept things in a new way.

Though I am new to these Chosen studies, I look forward to delving into the other three. (There is a study guide for each of the four seasons of The Chosen.) I love how the study shines a light on how God is with us, and strengthening us, even when we are going through trying times. He guides us through to the other side with unfathomable blessings.

The Knight and the Firefly was so needed in my family right now! One of my kids is similar to this story’s little boy, Oliver, — with the questions and worries that ONLY show up AT NIGHT! Reading this story together was a wonderful way to allow this child to hear the truths repeated that we’ve already shared. Thank so very much, Tara McClary Reeves and Amanda Jenkins, for backing us parents up!!

What a well written book with lessons from Psalm 91:1-2 “The one who lives under the protection of the Most Hight dwells in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, ‘My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.’” The illustrations are supper cute and colorful!! I love the bravery of Oliver and the honesty of his millions of questions at night. :) There is also a bonus feature called “Parent Connection” at the end. It allows the parents and kids to dig a little deeper and apply the truth’s of God’s Word that were presented in the book. Excellent addition!!

May this book be an encouragement to your kids and a reminder of God’s faithfulness all the time!

I received this book for free from B&H Publishing Group in exchange for my honest, unbiased opinion.

A beautiful story albeit with a few off putting turns. This was done much better than the last, but I'm still dismayed that the author quit the series.
