God's Word is Alive! is a collection of true stories about the Bible. It is written to help commemorate the four hundredth anniversary of the publication of the King James Version of the Bible (1611-2011). These stories remind us that although some people reject the Bible or even try to prevent others from reading it, God's Word survives and still revolutionizes lives. As a matter of fact, even in these modern times, the Bible outsells other books!

Written primarily for children and young people, the stories presented in God's Word is Alive! will inform and encourage people of all ages to take another look at God's Book. The Bible is not only a great literary treasure which has helped to shape our English language, but it is a powerful tool to changed the lives of individuals and nations.
