My First ABC Book of Bible Verses is a bright, engaging book that helps toddlers and preschoolers learn key Bible verses while practicing their ABCs.

Written by Jonathan Gibson, this captivating introduction to Scripture pairs each letter of the alphabet with a short, foundational Bible verse and a simple sentence that helps explain its meaning. With colorful illustrations and an easy-to-follow format, young children are invited to begin hiding God’s Word in their hearts while learning truths about who God is, why they need Jesus, how to become a child of God, and what to do when they are afraid.

First in the Big Truths for Little Minds series for ages 3–5, this book gives parents, grandparents, and caregivers a simple way to introduce foundational Christian teaching during everyday read-aloud time. By combining early alphabet learning with Bible memory, My First ABC Book of Bible Verses helps families build gospel-centered habits from the very beginning.

"Fantastic! My pastor and daddy's heart thrilled to see, read, and enjoy these ABCs. What a remarkable project—and marriage of simplicity and wisdom.

"Trust a wise Old Testament Professor like Jonny Gibson to produce a book for children that does what God himself does in his Word: help young people learn his truth by connecting some of its verses to the different letters of the alphabet. It still is an enjoyable way to learn Scripture by heart. And what's even better, the verses will probably never be forgotten. With its attractive illustrations, simple lessons, and, best of all, great Scripture texts, My First ABC Book of Bible Verses will last our children for a lifetime."

"Letters declare the glory of God. God's people are word lovers because Jesus is the visible Word; God's children are book lovers because God speaks to us through the Book. Jonny Gibson has created a beautiful book to teach our youngest readers to love the alphabet while hearing the life-giving Word of God!"
Irene Sun, Author of God Counts: Numbers in his Word and his World and Taste and See: All About God's Goodness
