About this listen

A Bible storybook to help the next generation of kids understand the rich diversity of God’s people, emphasizing identity, contemplation, and wonder.

The Book of Belonging is designed for families seeking a Bible storybook that reflects the diversity of God’s people and for every listener seeking a more expansive and wondrous view of God. The thoughtful text present some of Scripture’s most important and overlooked stories—including many female-centered ones—alongside old favorites reimagined to convey greater inclusivity, diversity, and historical representation.

Through narratives, mindful practices, and guided wonder moments, children and grown-ups alike will learn who God is and be reminded over and over that God tells each of us, “You are Beloved, you Belong, and you are Delightful.” Because when it comes to the love of God, everyone belongs.

The Book of Belonging features

• Forty-two Bible stories: twenty from the Old Testament, twenty-two from the New Testament

• Historically accurate depictions of Jesus and God’s people, including original Hebrew and Greek names

• Lifelong lessons that make it a perfect gift!

Critic Reviews

“Biblical stories presenting a moving message, contemplative questions, and captivating illustrations.”Kirkus Reviews

“One of the reasons I’m excited about The Book of Belonging is because I share a passionate vision for freeing Scripture from some of the limiting expressions to which it has been confined.”—Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room

The Book of Belonging is one of the most important projects coming our way. If we can show our kids a more inclusive world, then maybe we won’t have to spend so much time unlearning as adults, and that excites me.”—Brit Barron, pastor, comedian, author of Worth It and Do You Still Talk to Grandma?
