Who Is God? 52 Pictures to Share with Your Family
Who Is God? invites families to get to know God better through fifty-two devotions and pictures that display his attributes, characteristics, and names.
When you meet a new friend, how do you get to know them? You might ask their name, then what they’re interested in. What are their likes and dislikes? The more time you spend with them, the more you get to know them. It’s similar with God. As we spend time with God in his Word, we get to know him better. We learn his names, his attributes, and the different ways he reveals himself through stories, symbols, and imagery in Scripture.
In Who Is God? devotions written by Kate Hox are paired with illustrations by Joe Hox to present families with a big view of God, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Each devotion includes a captivating illustration, a key verse to remember, Bible passages for reference, reflection questions, and song suggestions.
With fifty-two chapters, families can use Who Is God? as their weekly devotional for an entire year.
Stories from the Old and New Testaments show readers how all Scripture is connected and what it reveals about God from beginning to end.
Follows the same format and style as Kate and Joe Hox’s popular family devotional Who Is Jesus?

Finding a solid devotional for kids can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack of "fluff." When I first picked up Who Is God? by Kate Hox, I got exactly what I wanted!
Here is why this book has earned a permanent spot on our nightstand.
Why It Resonates With Us
1. It Doesn’t "Talk Down" to Her
Many children's books oversimplify God to the point of losing His majesty. What I love about Kate Hox’s approach is that she introduces big, "meaty" theological concepts—like God’s immutability—in a way that a child can actually grasp. It treats my daughter like a deep thinker, which she is.
2. The Focus is on God’s Character, Not Just Our Behavior
So much of children's religious literature is "be good because God said so." This book flips the script. It focuses entirely on who God is. I want my daughter’s good behaviour to come from a place of trust and awe rather than just following rules, and this is such a great book to help with this!
3. The Beauty of the Layout
Let’s be real: aesthetics matter. The illustrations are thoughtful and calming, not loud or distracting. It creates a peaceful atmosphere for our morning or bedtime reading. It feels like a "special" book, and she treats it that way.
How it Works for a Busy Parent
I really appreciate the structure Hox uses. Each section is bite-sized but impactful:
* A Scripture passage: Grounding everything in the actual Word.
* A clear explanation: Connecting a complex attribute of God to everyday life.
* Discussion questions: These are the gold mine. They aren't "yes or no" questions; they actually get my daughter talking about her fears, her hopes, and how she sees the world.
Final Verdict: If you want a resource that builds a sturdy foundation of faith while sparking genuine curiosity, this is it. It’s not just a book she reads; it’s a book she’s growing up with.

This gorgeous new release helps introduce children to the character of God through his word. Each devotional is about two pages long and includes Bible passages, a key verse and reflection questions. The reflection questions are wonderful and include more Bible verse references to look up. Another feature of this book that I love is the song suggestions in the back of the book that correspond to each devotional. This book will help your whole family to know God better by spending time in his word and understanding his character, attributes and names in new ways. Kate Hox is very gifted at explaining theological concepts in accessible and age appropriate ways. The woodcut style illustrations are beautiful and unique and help bring these devotions to life!
I cannot wait to share this book with my girls. They loved “Who is Jesus?” so much that they asked me to start it over when we finished it, I know they are going to love this one just as much. These devotionals are a great length for including in homeschooling, family worship or at the dinner table.
“We too have been rescued, and we too have been given the law of God. God loves us very much, and he knows that following his law will bring us joy - it’s for our good! We can thank God for our salvation by obeying his law.” (p 42)
“His saving blood moors us to God himself. We are totally secure. This knowledge is what gave the disciples hope in the face of persecution. It was their anchor! They know they were safe with God - totally secure. Whatever bad things happened to them, whatever sickness or disease came, whatever words or fists attacked them - it didn’t matter. They were anchored in the Lord through the blood of Jesus.” (p 202)

Review of advance copy received from Publisher
Who Is God? is a thick hardcover book created to help families deepen their understanding of God. These devotions make it easy to spend meaningful time with God and discover new things about Him.
What I appreciate most is how this book encourages us to focus on God rather than just ourselves. Oftentimes, when we turn to God’s Word, it’s because we’re seeking solutions to problems, relief from anxiety, guidance, or answers. That’s all good but shifting our focus to God strengthens our faith and allows us to reflect His character to others through what we’ve learned.
The readings are not only uplifting and informative, but also easy to follow. Each chapter highlights a specific aspect of God and includes scripture passages and thought-provoking questions (with answers found in the back of the book.) Every chapter also features a full-page illustration that makes this book even more special and inviting.
This is a wonderful choice for anyone who wants to get closer to God and enjoy time together as a family.

In Who Is God?, Kate Hox shows 52 pictures of God to share with your family. With vibrant illustrations by Joe Hox, this book is a beautiful way to come to know and understand the LORD.
Beginning with “God is our mighty Creator” and ending with “God is King and Builder,” this book shines a light on understanding our Lord. Reflection questions are included along with their answers, making this an excellent book for family devotions or even as a Sunday school curriculum.
Knowing God Through His Names
What I love most about this book is how it shares the names of God alongside stories from the Bible. When saying that God is our Rock, the book tells the story of God being David’s rock as he sought shelter from the hand of Saul. It grounds God’s names in the biblical narrative and makes them easier to understand.
When children ask me questions about God, I don’t want to water down the truth. I want to give them understandable yet accurate statements about who God is. This book is thoroughly biblical, theologically sound, exciting, and enjoyable.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Friends, this new release from @newgrowthpress is the perfect family discipleship resource. 52 chapters focusing on specific attributes of God: from Creator to Mighty Warrior to Abba Father to the God of Hope.
Each chapter begins with Scripture, has a devotional to read aloud and then ends in reflection questions. At the end of the book, there are also suggestions for hymns to sing that correspond with the truths of God learned in that chapter. I love that!
The accompanying illustrations by Joe Hox in each chapter are beautiful and captivating.
I am looking forward to continue reading through this book with my kids and talking about our mighty God together.
