Publisher's summary

In the quiet twilight hours, when the world is hushed and still, stories come alive. These are the stories that have shaped generations, molded nations, and provided spiritual nourishment for countless souls over millennia. They are the narratives of ordinary men and women who walked through extraordinary times, who navigated challenges with fortitude and celebrated victories with humility. This book, Whispers of Wisdom: Bedtime Stories from the Bible is a unique collection of those timeless tales.

This book is a journey into the heart of biblical wisdom, bringing the stories of the Bible alive in a new and compelling way. They are tales that transcend time and place, bearing universal truths that speak to each one of us, no matter our age or where we come from. These are stories that teach us about courage and kindness, about the meaning of friendship and the power of faith, about forgiveness, trust, and the boundless love of God.

From the young shepherd boy David, who defeated the giant Goliath, to the wisdom of King Solomon, from the loyalty of Ruth to the courage of Queen Esther, each story in this collection serves as a conduit of moral and spiritual truths. Whispers of Wisdom takes you through Noah's big adventure, Daniel's miraculous friendship with lions, and the moving tale of the Prodigal Son. It shares the awe-inspiring stories of miraculous feedings and healings, and tales of unending love, such as the Parable of the Lost Coin.

Each story in this book aims to evoke reflection and contemplation, providing a deeper understanding of the powerful messages inherent in the scriptures. These are stories that can be shared at bedtime, kindling the light of faith, the joy of hope, and the warmth of love. Through the magic of words, we invite you to create your own vivid images, to picture the grandeur of Noah's Ark, the courage in Daniel's eyes, or the surprise on Zacchaeus' face when Jesus calls him. This allows for a deeper, more personal connection to the tales, one that goes beyond the surface, reaching into the soul.

Whispers of Wisdom: Bedtime Stories from the Bible—Inspirational Tales for Kids, Christian Children's Books, Moral Lessons, Faith, and Family Devotions is not just a collection of tales—it is a treasure chest of lessons for life, wrapped in the warm, soothing blanket of bedtime stories.

Timeless and Heartening.

These are timeless stories full of metaphors and core values. They have a soul-felt feeling when you listen to them that grounds you and keeps in you feeling the strength and having faith. We need these! Here in this audiobook, which is very professionally narrated, stories of David and Golliath, Samson, King Solomon and The Prodigal Son among others, give those needed meggages to the soul. Stay strong in your core, do the right thing (even when it's hard) and live true to yourself. Great audio-book, valuable.

Quality Short Stories

(Reviewed by Lloyd) This book provides religious, short, bedtime stories for children. I found this to be well-written, but I was most impressed that they were short enough to keep a child’s attention. The sound quality and narrator were also very good. All of the stories come from the Bible.

Bedtime Stories for Young Children

"Whispers of Wisdom" is a collection of bedtime stories from the bible for young children to learn about God and His love for them. As they unwind from the day and fall into a deep sleep, they will internalize God's love and grow their faith in Him. "No matter how small or insignificant we feel, God is always there, and we are precious to him. God's love for you is limitless."

The "Lost Coin" story is one of my favorite chapters where we learn that each one of us is called to be there for others who may be lost, the same way God is always there for us. Within each story, there are so many meaningful lessons on faith, belief, and love to guide children as they grow to learn about life with God.

Great 10 out of 10

I am so happy I got this book. I enjoyed listening to it with my kids. Instead of me reading to them a bedtime story we would listen to the book, and they loved it. This audiobook makes it easy for kids to understand bible stories. I love that after each story it summarizes what the story is meant to teach us. Great book a must

Spiritual Growth for Young Minds

A distinct blend of moral and spiritual timeless Bible stories for kids. This book is a rich and immersive experience, and an excellent faith book for children.
The great choice for parents seeking not just Bible books for kids but an experience that transforms bedtime into moments of discovery and contemplation. Be warned, too close to bedtime and the resulting thoughts, conversations and discussion can end up running way past bedtime!
