So God Spoke Up
So God Spoke Up is a Dr. Seuss–style retelling of the creation story, based on Genesis 1 and 2 accounts.
When I was teaching, it amazed me how much kids loved Dr. Seuss stories, and how easily these stories stick in a person’s head (long into adulthood). Who can’t quote a bit of “Green Eggs and Ham?”
My goal became to try to make the Genesis creation account stick with a child as easily and enjoyably as “Green Eggs and Ham.”
Currently being revised. If you are interested in a copy, please reach out.
“I have had the privilege of reading ‘So God Spoke Up.’ It is a book that every parent who believes in creation should use to teach their children. It is well written, provides childlike insights into the handiwork of God, and is rooted in the Bible.”
– Elder Daniel R. Jackson, President of the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists (former)
“I was very pleased to have the opportunity to read, “So God Spoke Up” to a group of 25 grade one students. During the reading, it was interesting that there was a physical and verbal response from the students to the pictures of God and to the Day 7 “playdate.” They gasped, laughed aloud, and pointed. Then, quieted themselves to hear the rest of the text. It was if they realized that God had a relationship (an enjoyable relationship) with Adam and Eve. I too felt enlightened and refreshed after reading Day 7. Wow. Thank you Father God for your great love towards your children.”
