Jesus in My Heart: A Simple Story of Salvation and Following

Previously published as Mommy, What Is Salvation? by June Gray Wyrick and Kristen Wyrick Jones."Mommy, what does 'salvation' mean?"One child's question at the dinner table became a conversation that changed everything. Jesus in My Heart gives you the words to answer that question with clarity, warmth, and the simplicity children can grasp.While many books tell stories about Jesus, this one helps children ages 5-10 truly understand the "how and why" of faith. Based on a real "napkin drawing" conversation between a mother and her children, it uses three memorable pictures (a throne, a door, and a closet) to turn big ideas into something a child can see and hold onto.Inside, families will discover a gentle way to talk about: - The Heart of the Gospel: who Jesus is, and why knowing Him is a relationship, not a set of rules. - The Invitation: what it means to open the "door" of your heart and let Jesus sit on the throne as your leader. - The Journey: Jesus never leaves, and we can always welcome Him back when we try to be in charge.More Than a Story: A built-in Parent Conversation Guide helps you follow your child's curiosity with confidence. Whether you're tucking your child in at bedtime, preparing for baptism, teaching Sunday school, or passing on your faith as a grandparent, this story bridges big truths and a child's everyday world.BONUS FEATURES: - Interactive Pages: draw Jesus in your heart, and write (or draw) a first prayer. - A Prayer Page to Sign and Date: so your child always remembers the day. - Talking Together: four kid-friendly discussion questions, with more online. - Words to Know: simple definitions of key faith words like "God," "Jesus," and "Salvation." - Scripture Verses to post at home.Written by June Gray Wyrick and her daughter, Kristen Wyrick Jones, this story has already been shared with more than 50,000 children in 13 countries.BUY ONE.
