Book: I Can Only Imagine

About the book:

Ecourage your children’s sense of wonder and faith with I Can Only Imagine, inspired by the hit song by MercyMe. This beautiful picture book will capture your family’s childlike faith and imagination. 

I Can Only Imagine asks questions a child might ask and invites families to wonder together: What is heaven like? What does God do? What would it be like to spend a day with Jesus? Children will see that although experiencing the glory of heaven may be far off, we can enjoy a friendship with Jesus every day - right here on earth. Whimsical, playful illustrations and thought-provoking questions make this a book that families will cherish.

Fun and vibrant illustrations offer a vivid visual and will help your children see that God can be found everywhere, every day. 

I think about heaven as I look up at the skyAnd watch the fluffy clouds roll by.The more I imagine, the more I wish I knew.I wonder, would God like pancakes with extra syrup too?And if God and I spent the day together, what exactly would we do?

The Christian worship song “I Can Only Imagine” touched countless lives with its glorious representation of being in the presence of God, and this beautifully illustrated picture book invites you and your children to imagine those same wonders. Share the joy of a personal relationship with the Lord with your family today through the creative, faith-filled book I Can Only Imagine.

My thoughts:This is a sweet children's book and I enjoyed reading it.  I feel it would be appropriate for you to read with your child and discuss Heaven.  I believe it would be a comfort for a child who has faced the loss of a loved one.  The questions asked by the child in this book are real questions a child would wonder about Heaven and God.  It made me smile to read actually and the innocence of children.

I received a digital copy of this book from Thomas Nelson via NetGalley for my honest review.  

Have a day of blessings!
