Virtual Book Tour Stewart Perrilliat



Kingdom Principles For Everyday Living



 About The Book

The book is a 40 day devotional. It's a great book for men and women. This book is designed to help those who are struggling with a consistent prayer life. It's easy to read and very fruitful.


Guest Post

Over the years, I have come to understand the significance of the number 40. Scientifically speaking, 40 weeks is the length of time it takes for a mother to carry an unborn child from conception to delivery. Biblically speaking, 40 is the number associated with a period of testing before a breakthrough.

The number 40 is an indication that God is ready to birth something new out of pain or challenge. According to the Bible, Noah was in the rain for 40 days and nights before God brought a refreshing promise for His people.

When the Children of Israel were ready to cross over into their promise, the spies who preceded them took 40 days to scout out the land. However, because of disobedience, their 40 days turned into 40 years before they entered into the land of promise.
Goliath, who was killed by David, challenged the Children of Israel for 40 days prior to their victory over the Philistine army.

Before He began His ministry, Jesus, while being tempted by satan, fasted for 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness.

I have experienced my own personal 40 days of trials and tribulations. However, because I did not lose my confidence in God, I was able to realize the significance of the number 40 and receive God’s blessings for me after my test. These truths concerning the number 40 inspired me to write this devotional.

In modern times, 30 days is used to complete various programs or to create a new habit. At the beginning of the year, Magazine cover stories often read, Thirty Days to a New You. For the purpose of this devotional the true number for the manifestation of a renewed life is the number 40.

Therefore, this devotional will afford you an opportunity to develop a more intimate relationship with the Lord and transform your life. As you read this devotional, it will give you hope and renew your strength. On those days when doubt and disbelief abound, I encourage you to remain consistent with your 40 day cycle of reading Kingdom Principles for Everyday Living: 40 Practical Principals for a Fruitful Life.
I challenge you to apply yourself and expect a breakthrough by the time you have complete this devotional. I encourage you to not only read through the devotions in this book, but to read the related scriptures and commit them to memory. This process will increase your knowledge of God, and strengthen your faith towards Him.

God’s will for us is to increase in every area of our lives by being doers of His Word. I pray that this devotional draw you closer to God and give you the incredible power to break into your promise.

REVIEWS

Kimberley awakens children (and adults) to the immense knowledge that can be found in the Bible. In this book Kimberley focusses on some of the trees found in Scripture. She tells short stories related to the "tree Scripture"; asks questions; gives a few interesting (and to me unknown) facts and gives various activities to review the information.
The artwork is delightful and colourful.
I found, even as an adult, that I learned much from this little book.
It would be perfect for homeschoolers; Christian Schools and Sunday Schools.
Bravo Kimberley for a great resource.
Jan Cox, retired teacher

Trees of the Book by Kimberly Payne is a great children’s activity book describing some of the trees mention in the Bible. It is well written and illustrated.
I found the description of the trees very informative, easy to understand on an elementary level. It is fun the way she related each to a passage in the Bible describing how God actually used that type of tree. The activity section with each tree was both a learning tool and fun to do. This book will keep your child’s interested. I enjoyed Trees of the Book by Kimberly Payne and highly recommend it. It is a must add to your entire child’s home reading and would make an awesome Bible study addition.

Author Interview

Tell us a little about yourself.

I am a wife and a mother of two teenagers, two cats, and lots of fish. I love to walk and hike in the great outdoors, and consider myself an amateur photographer who loves to take tons of pictures of nature.

Why did you write the book? 

I find the stories in the Bible fascinating, and wanted to explore some of them from a different perspective.

Who is this book written for?

Trees of the Book was written for children ages 7 to 9. It can also be used as a supplemental book to the Growth and Changes in Plants Curriculum for Canadian teachers in grades two/three.

What qualifies you to write this book?

I am an award-winning self-published writer and a member of The Word Guild and Inscribe Christian Writer’s Fellowship. I have volunteered as a teacher with many children’s programs at my church, as a teacher’s aid for student’s reading, and within the library at my children’s school. Currently, I am an elementary school secretary for the Separate School Board. I love to combine my teaching experience and love of writing to create educational materials for children about family, fitness, science and faith.

What do you like to do to get away from it all?

I love to hike in the woods, and take pictures of plants, animals and trees.

What is the PRIMARY benefit, above all others, that your potential reader will gain from reading this book?

It is an easy and fun way to learn about the trees in popular Bible stories.
 If you had to compare this book to any other book out there, which book would it be?
Any Sunday school curriculum, take-home Bible studies, children’s activity book.
 Hundreds of thousands of books come out every year.

Why should someone buy THIS book? 

7 different trees tell a Bible story from their individual viewpoint. Readers learn specifics about the tree and the scriptural account.

 Who is your target audience?

Teachers, caregivers and mothers interested in leading their children in the Christian faith and teaching them about the Bible. 

 What was the inspiration (motivation) behind the book? 

As an avid walker, I have a love and appreciation for nature, especially walking through the woods. I also like to read the Bible and found myself curious about the trees mentioned in scripture. At the time I started my research I was actively involved in children’s ministry in my church so wanted to share what I learned in an entertaining format for the children. I produced one-sheets to fit into the weekly bulletins and featured one tree a week for seven weeks. I collected these together and added facts about each tree with fun activities. And voila, I had the beginnings of this book!

What do you hope this book accomplishes?

I hope the readers gain a new appreciation for trees while learning a little more about stories in the Bible. And I hope they have fun too!
