Who Is Jesus?

Illustrated by Ying Hui Tan
A long time ago, when God wanted to show the world how much it was loved, God did something amazing. God became very, very small—as small as a baby. And that baby was Jesus.

This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of Jesus, highlighting his role in showing God’s profound love and compassion. Tender and informative, relaying significant themes of inclusivity, forgiveness, and miracles, this inspiring narrative is perfect for Sunday school and bedtime reading alike. This is a delightful resource that introduces children to the timeless, loving example of Jesus.
