Light & Dark book cover: a dark hand reaching toward a curtain of golden light

Light & Dark

From the first light to the last, twenty Bible stories about the dark, and the Light that is stronger. Best read together.

For grown-ups

This book tells twenty true stories from the Bible, from the first light to the last. Some are scary: a murder, a flood, a king who killed children. We left them in on purpose. Kids already know the world has dark places, and the Bible doesn't pretend otherwise. But in every story, the darkness is real and the light is stronger. Read it together, pause where they have questions, and let them see they never have to be afraid alone.
