Volume I
Pictures of God: A Child’s Guide to Understanding Icons
When the Son of God came down from heaven to become a man like us, He made it possible for us to see Him, touch Him, and make pictures of Him pictures which we call icons. This little book brings God and His saints vividly into children's lives through icons, explaining in the simplest terms what each icon means and what the role of these holy pictures and the holy stories and people they depict can be in our lives. The colorful pages of Pictures of God are perfect for occupying little hands in church, for explaining the world of icons in the first years of Sunday school, and for read-aloud time with little ones at home.
Volume II
Pictures of God: Another Child's Guide to Understanding Icons (Previously published as From God to You: The Icon's Journey to Your Heart)
In this follow-up volume to the popular Pictures of God, John Skinas introduces children to some of the ancient icon archetypes most treasured by Orthodox Christians—from the Icon Not Made by Hands to the Pantocrator of Sinai. Pictures of God, Vol. 2 follows the path of the icon through history and encourages children to mindfully consider icons and their stories as windows of inspiration and doorways to prayer.
