Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2023
We have used the first book and now we are on the second. It works well for our group of kids at both of my programs. There aren’t as many activities in the second book set as there was in the first but it still works for us. I love Peter Enn and his way to make the gospel so Jesus centered and full of life giving truths.
Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2012
Our family has used some great resources (The Jesus Storybook Bible, Starr Meade, etc.), but Enns does such a great job by not only allowing us to read and expound upon a particular passage, but see that text within the grand story of the Bible. This has helped us appreciate how Jesus not only sits at the center of Scripture, but also stands as the purpose and end of every figure, theme and narrative in the Bible.

Despite that, Enns doesn't try to do too much. Instead, he works progressively, beginning with Year One and continuing here in Year Two, building an every growing biblical/biblical-theological foundation for my daughters and our family. Buy whatever you can in this series. It's truly worth it!

A great way to teach to a child. Focus on the truths of Jesus and the message of how to follow that message on earth to make this the kingdom of God. Focusing on sin, heaven and hell etc is a sure fire way to guarantee some counseling later in life and does not achieve the desired goal.

Peter Enns writes with insight and clarity for children of elementary school age! He appropriately sticks to Jesus stories rather than introducing young children to difficult-to-explain stories like Noah and the Ark. His approach in this series is smack-dab on target for this age group. Raymond Bystrom

We loved the first one and are enjoying this one as well. So very grateful for Enn's method of teaching children. It is just what we were looking for.

Makes teaching about the bible easy. The activities are fun.
Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2012
"Telling God's Story Year Two: The Kingdom of Heaven" is the second installment of Peter Enns "Telling God's Story" religious curriculum published by Olive Branch Books. Peter Enns holds a Ph.D. in Ancient Near Eastern Languages and Literature from Harvard and a master's degree from Westminster Theological Seminary. He has taught in both the university and seminary classrooms. He and his wife Susan live in Pennsylvania and are the parents of three children.
"Telling God's Story Year Two: The Kingdom of Heaven" is made up of two parts: Instructor Text and Teaching Guide and Student Guide and Activity Pages. For this review, the focus will be on the Instructor Text and Teaching Guide.
The "Instructor Text and Teaching Guide" is written in an easy, conversational tone between the author and the reader. The curriculum is organized to allow the participants "to get to know Jesus better," as the author states. The curriculum is divided into eight units: Stories Jesus Told, Miracles Jesus Did, Teachings of Jesus, The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus' Early Life, Jesus' Disciples, Opposition to Jesus, and The End of Jesus Life. The author has included an introduction which explains the curriculum's premise and a supplemental lesson titled, "The Rest of the Story." Each lesson contains the Biblical reference which is the basis for the lesson, "What the Parent Should Know", followed by the lesson text.
"Telling God's Story Year Two: The Kingdom of Heaven" is straightforward, authored in a conversational tone. The curriculum is "ecumenical," appealing to all denominations of the Christian church. Our family has been pleased with Enns' insight and look forward to his next installment in the "Telling God's Story" curriculum.
