Here's a devotional Bible-study journal for junior highers that uses metaphors--or "pictures"--taken straight from Scripture to reveal God's nature. By picturing God as artist, baby, dad, eagle, jealous lover, lion, and so forth, students will discover who God is, what he does - and in the process, practice the habit of regular, open-book Bible study that leads to a change in thinking and behavior. Each of the 50 two-page journaling devotionals reveals a particular character trait of God in a picture junior highers can relate to, then challenges them to put it in motion in their own lives.
