MAY 10, 2023 — Reformed Free Publishing will release a new children’s book on the Ten Commandments on May 16, 2023. Written by by Ron Cammenga and illustrated by Ana Sebastian, “The Ten Commandments for Children,” is an in-depth dive into the heart of the Christian faith at a pace that kids can easily follow. The book is intended to be read as a devotional with kids age 6-9.
This book is the first in a three-part series by the author, Ron Cammenga of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The three books will follow the format of the original Catechism of the Church of Geneva written by John Calvin. This catechism used the Ten Commandments, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Apostles’ Creed to teach the basics of the Christian religion to children.
- First, “Of the Law, That is the Ten Commandments of God”
- Second, the Lord’s Prayer for kids (“Of Prayer)
- And third, the Apostles’ Creed (“Of Faith”)
If you have children or grandchildren, Ten Commandments would make a great devotional to close out the school year or start the summer off right. Chapters include discussion questions (“Let’s talk it over”), a Bible memory verse (“Let’s read the Bible”), and a related psalm to be sung (“Let’s sing”).
