Fun & Easy Books that Teach Kids About God and the Bible Using the Alphabet

January 30, 2023

If your kids want to listen to rap music, why not encourage them to listen to rap music about God?

Timothy Brindle and Jonathan Gibson, together, are passionate about teaching kids about God and the Bible through their fun and engaging book series, Acrostic Theology, which uses the alphabet and rhyme to do just that!
Timothy Brindle has a Master of Theology degree and a Master of Divinity degree and is a Pastor at Olive Street Presbyterian Church. He is the author of The Unfolding, co-author of the Acrostic Theology for Kids series, and has released several Christian hip-hop albums. Jonathan Gibson, Ph.D., is ordained in the International Presbyterian Church and serves as Associate Professor of Old Testament at Westminster Theological Seminary. He is the author of The Moon Is Always Round and co-author of the Acrostic Theology for Kids series.

During this episode, Timothy and Jonathan discuss their three engaging and interactive books in the series: The Acrostic of God, The Acrostic of Jesus, and The Acrostic of Salvation. Their books teach children the attributes of God, Jesus, or Salvation, using the alphabet and written to a rhyming beat, making each book fun and easy to memorize.

The biblical characteristics discussed, using the alphabet A to Z, weave together a beautiful picture of the Bible and its history. All three books can be used as a family devotional. Kids LOVE the engaging rhymes in each book.

Here are the rap albums that go with the book series as an additional resource, available on Spotify: The Acrostic of God, The Acrostic of Jesus, and The Acrostic of Salvation.
