Louie Giglio expands Indescribable Kids series with new book and podcast on top of milestone

“Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God & Science” surpasses 500,000 books sold  

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Oct. 27, 2021) – Well-known for his powerful messages about science and the Bible, Louie Giglio has a passion for inspiring kids to notice, enjoy and be in awe of God’s creation. He now is expanding the bestselling and well-loved Indescribable devotional series with a new book, The Wonder of Creation: 100 More Devotions about God and Science, releasing Tuesday, Nov. 16, and new podcast, The Indescribable Kids Podcast, debuting Tuesday, Nov. 2.

The Wonder of Creation: 100 More Devotions about God and Science offers young readers more mind-blowing, faith-building, scientific facts and biblical truths about God’s creation. Leading with the same STEM-related learnings Indescribable-series readers have come to know, The Wonder of Creation: 100 More Devotions about God and Science explores the marvels and curiosities of the animal kingdom, outer space, the human body and the Earth. Young readers will learn about flying snakes to white rhinos, volcanic moons to gamma-ray bursts, rainbow rivers to blue lava, brain freezes and more.

With engaging illustrations and striking photography, this fun and informative book is ideal for children ages 6–10. Each of the 100 devotions features a short Bible verse, a prayer, and a scientific fact or easy activity for further exploring one’s faith.

The Indescribable Kids series was recently adapted into a podcast format. Described as a podcast for kids by kids, The Indescribable Kids Podcast launches Tuesday, Nov. 2. Building on the key messages and STEM-related topics, each episode dives into facts about God and science in 3 to 8-minute discussions between the Indescribable book series characters, Evyn, Raz, Norah and Joshua.

The new additions to the series come alongside of the announcement that Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God and Science (Thomas Nelson, ISBN# 9780718086107, Oct. 10, 2017) has surpassed the milestone of selling more than half a million copies.
