Herein Is Love, Vol. 4: Numbers (Ganz)

Description

This is the fourth book in Nancy Ganz’s Herein is Love series.

Why has God recorded the long list of numbers? Why did God command a census to be taken twice, both recorded in the book of Numbers? Why is it important to know about these numbers now? Nancy Ganz shows God’s purposes in commanding that a census be taken and recorded in Scripture. More importantly, she shows how Numbers foreshadows the grace of God in our time when He grants His children an equal share in the greater inheritance received through faith in Jesus Christ. A Teacher’s Guide is included.

Endorsements

“Interesting and very competent… a major contribution!” — D.A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

“Doctrinally sure-footed, warmly devotional and refined of years of practical teaching experience, these lessons will prove an invaluable resource for all those engaged in training children for God. As society drifts ever farther from biblical moorings, here is timely help towards preparing a new generation to stand steadfast in the faith and, by God’s grace, impact the world for King Jesus.” — Ted Donnelly, President, Reformed Theological College, Belfast

“Where can one even think of finding such treasures as these fine commentaries on Bible books written for children? A tour de force in children’s literature.” — Derek Thomas, Professor of Systematic and Practical Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary

“What I have appreciated most—in addition to fine insights into the text—is the spirit and tone in which it is written. It reads as one who delights in the greatness and love of God; one who has childlike respect for God. And this also commends itself to children. I have been helped in ‘becoming like a child’ in reading Nancy’s work. I am thankful for her fine work and dedication.” — Brian Coombs, Pastor, Syracuse Reformed Presbyterian Church.
