Synopsis:

Everyone loves a good story, and children are no exception. Who better to tell those stories than Jesus Christ himself? Listen Up, by bestselling author Marty Machowski, delves into some of Jesus' best-known stories in a two-part discipleship resource fashioned to help children explore the parables of Jesus and learn the biblical truths they convey.

After teaching a parable, Jesus often said, Whoever has ears, let him hear. In other words, This is important, so you better listen up, and what could be more important than the good news of the kingdom of God? This family devotional provides a unique opportunity for Christian parents to help their children listen up and hear the gospel as Jesus himself shared it. Jesus told simple stories using everyday activities and objects that point to surprising spiritual truths about life in his kingdom. In the parables children (and adults!) will learn to treasure the gospel.

Children love stories, and the parables provide a wonderful opportunity to engage their imagination and help them understand and live out the good news of the kingdom of God. This thirteen-week family devotional is designed to help Christian families explore the parables that Jesus taught through reading selected parables, activities, discussion questions, and fun facts. Each five-day session includes Bible reading, discussion questions, a fun activity, and songs
