"I wrote The Jesus Storybook Bible because I wanted children to know the Bible isn't mainly about you and what you're supposed to be doing. It's about God and what he has done. It's the story of how God loves his children and comes to rescue them. It's a Love Story. It's an Adventure Story. And at the center of the story is a baby - the child upon whom everything would depend. And every single story in the Bible whispers his name."

-- Sally Lloyd-Jones

“All bores me in the world of facts, I see an end, a limit to all things and my heart thirsts for the infinite and for eternity.”
