God Is

“God is not a nightmare."

Beautiful and affirming, God Is lays a strong foundation for children to recognize God's goodness in their daily lives: from bedtime to prayer time, on the playground and in conversation.

Kaji Douša's words liberate God from religious stereotypes that are used too often to oppress and shame, reminding readers instead:

God is not a bully. 

God is not limiting.

God is not humorless.

Through simple couplets, God Is offers a profound theology of joy, wonder, and assurance for children of all ages—including those of us who are learning anew, in adulthood, how to have faith like a child.
