Hosts Sarah Humphrey and Mike Nawrocki talk to co-authors Bob Smiley and Jesse Florea about their new book Average Boy's Above Average Summer.

Average Boy is here to make you laugh and encourage you in your faith!

The Average Boy series features humorous writing and whimsical illustrations to help readers embrace the idea that life isn’t always about being the smartest, most athletic, or best-looking kid in the neighborhood. Faith, family, and friends are far more valuable than being perceived as cool.

What happens when “Average Boy” Bob Smiley gets to the end of an above-average school year? Why, it’s time for an above-average summer, of course! If things go according to plan―and Average Boy always has lots of plans―then this summer will be his best one ever.

You see, Average Boy isn’t going to sleep in until noon this summer―at least not every day. No, he has big goals for the next few months. This summer is when Average Boy will finally build that tree house he’s been planning with his best friend, Billy. This summer is when he will brush his teeth every morning (as soon as he finds his toothbrush). And this summer he’s setting a goal to invite everyone in town to church.

There will be challenges along the way―challenges like Donny the school bully, or Sarah and Everley, who always seem to have water balloons in hand. But his biggest challenge this summer is the Huge Hairy Hisser, who lurks in the woods behind Average Boy’s house and seems determined to ruin his tree house-building plans.

It will definitely be a summer to remember!

This week hosts Sarah Humphrey and Mike Nawrocki talk with author

This week hosts Sarah and Mike talk to author Troy Schmidt and podcast producer Dan Lynch about the latest novel in their middle grade series DARKNESS.

THE SEVEN time-travel adventure series follows a group of kids who are given incredible powers (super-charged displays of the gifts of the spirit) which they all received the same day then find each other over the course of the book series. They unite to battle a villain who is trying to disrupt Bible history.

In book three of the series--DARKNESS based on Exodus 7-12--the journey continues as the kids chase Dr Bales back into the time of Moses and the plagues of darkness, locusts, and the final plaque, the death of the firstborn. And who is really Dr. Bales' target? The kids learn the true mission of Dr. Bales and hints of his identity! THE SEVEN carefully follows biblical history and even throws in some archaeology to show the truth behind the Bible. Every book has a secret code adventurers can decipher, testing to see how carefully they are reading and how well they know the Bible.

This week hosts Sarah Humphrey and Mike Nawrocki talk with author Christie Thomas about her book Little Habits, Big Faith.

Feeling daunted by how to help your kids really grow in their faith? It’s time to start little. We want our kids to know God. We know we’re supposed to disciple them. But parenthood is hard. We are busy and tired, and we often feel unequipped. What if our kids don’t seem all that interested or can’t sit still long enough for us to read the Bible?

Christie Thomas has a secret for you: Helping your kids connect with God is way easier than you think. It all starts with 30 seconds a day—and the power of a simple habit. Through Christie’s empowering, encouraging insights, you’ll discover how to overcome common struggles, implement easy practices that fit your unique kids, and change your family’s faith culture. In this book, you will

• discover how to make Scripture and spiritual practices come alive for short attention spans.

• learn simple steps for developing faith through the Faith Growth Cycle and its three stages: seed,

sprout, and root.

• develop practical strategies for establishing consistent habits.

Blessed and Beautiful: Psalm 1 (with Psalm 121)is the third entry in the series. Every tree is beautiful and strong and makes unique contributions that other trees may not.

Join the Adventure of Fir, Pine, Cedar, Oak, and Juniper in this colourful book. Notice how each tree reflects Psalm 1 and Psalm 121. As you study these Psalms, identify strengths you can grow as you plant yourself close to streams of goodness and practise thoughtful actions. Welcome to Blessed and Beautiful!

This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Sarah Humphrey talk with authors Conner Shram and Jared Neusch about their new book: Jesus vs the Bad Guys.

Who is Jesus? Authors and lifelong friends Connor Shram and Jared Neusch want kids to meet the real Jesus.

Jesus is the core to understanding our faith in a deep and personal way. Introducing kids to Jesus at a young age can help them build a lifelong, unshakeable trust in him. The authors’ goal is to provide stories about Jesus that are fun and exciting, reflect the playful imagination God has given to each of his children, and reveal the radical, timeless example of Jesus’ message.

Even young children, through God’s help, are ready to know the real Jesus. That’s why each book in this series features key biblical values, presented in a fun, funny, engaging, and lasting way. Eachbook in the Jesus Is for Kids series will help children:

 build their knowledge of who Jesus is;

 enter a deeper relationship with Him; and

 develop a love of Scripture.
