Synopsis

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." (Mark 10:14 NIV)

Four-year-old Benjamin pressed his nose against the airplane window and searched the sky. "What are you looking for?" his mom asked back. Without glancing up he answered, "For heaven, where God lives."

This unique devotional takes its inspiration from the innocent and earnest words of children. Pairing heartwarming anecdotes with Scripture, Growing Towards God is a wonderful reflection for mothers and grandmothers, reminding readers of the wisdom we hear every day "from the mouths of babes."
