Book Description

4 and upP and up
There it was! The most beautiful bicycle she could ever have imagined! She ran to it, stoking its shiny chrome and running her fingers though the colorful streamers that flowed from its handle grips. Never cold there be a more perfect bike than this one. She clapped her hands with the pure delight of it.

Then she reached for the price tag.

The next moment, the sunshine in the little girl’s eyes had melted away into tears. "Oh, Daddy," she wept. "I’ll never have enough. Never." She threw herself into his arms. With over 300,000 copies imprint, Believing Christ has become a classic in religious literature. The tender and heartwarming Parable of the Bicycle, which is at the heart of that book, has helped literally hundreds of thousands understand more fully how we are saved and appreciate the debt each of us owes Christ. Now, Stephen E. Robinson’s beloved parable is retold with the help of Ben Sowards’s glowing illustrations. Readers of all ages will love this new picture book that again shares the good news of the gospel – that is, although we can never pay the price of admission into the kingdom of God, "Christ is the answer. He knows the worth of a soul is priceless. He is the bridge from here to there. He is our hope when we feel cut off and alone. He is our Savior." Parents, church leaders, and youth will welcome this simple yet profound explanation of how redemption works and its powerful affirmation of the grace of Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars This BOOK is Priceless, May 26, 2005
This review is from: You Are Priceless: The Parable of the Bicycle (Hardcover)
I read this book to my two youngest boys last night. I cried most of the way through it. It was beautiful! Such a lovely way to understand the atonement. The story is so moving, and the pictures are very well done. They are something you would want to hang on your wall. If you have read the book Believing Christ, this book will have even greater meaning to you. Even if you have not read it, "You are Priceless" will become priceless in your library.

This review is from: You Are Priceless: The Parable of the Bicycle (Hardcover)
I have read Stephen E. Robinson's "Believing Christ" and also "Following Christ". I came across this book looking for a birthday present for a friends daughter. I bought 2, One for my daughter(7) and one as a birthday present. I read it and cried, the story is beautiful, simple and profound, written for the enjoyment of the children who can read it themselves or for both the parent reader and the child listener, Ben Sowards did a fantastic job, the illustrations are just beautiful. I will be reccomending this book to all who will listen. just amazing.
