You with Your Young Reader

“So many Jesus followers want to read the Scriptures with their kids but don’t even know how to begin. Trust Pastor Leon Engman, an expert on the public reading of Scripture, to give a simple guide to a seemingly complex issue. Engman’s wise counsel will make reading the Bible with your children or grandchildren a joy that will build into them for their entire lives.”


—Michael Rydelnik, Moody Bible Institute





“Leon Engman’s new book You with Your Young Reader is a gift for parents and children alike. With carefully selected Bible passages, short notes that highlight the larger biblical story line and the centrality of Jesus Christ, and thought-provoking discussion questions, this book is a rich feast for families.”


—Stephen Witmer, author of A Big Gospel in Small Places





“At the heart of bringing up children ‘in the training and instruction of the Lord’ is reading the Bible with them. Leon Engman has provided parents and others with an excellent tool for doing just that. Easy to use and well laid out with helpful questions and explanatory notes, this book gives children the big picture of God’s unfolding plan of salvation in Scripture. . . . I enthusiastically recommend it to everyone, young and old.”


—Kenneth Brownell, author of Luther and the 9.5 Theses





“We know the Bible provides a life-giving foundation for our children. But when parents attempt to help their kids explore it, the task is overwhelming. You with Your Young Reader empowers parents to walk alongside their kids by providing a wise reading plan, questions, and leader notes. It’s a great stand-alone tool. Or it can be used to help kids transition from a children’s Bible to the Bible.”


—Matthew W. Bates, author of The Gospel Precisely
