What is The God contest about?
On Mount Carmel, Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to discover who the real God is. Will Baal answer their cries, or will Yahweh show his power? Centuries later, another mountain and an empty tomb reveal an even greater victory. This lively picture-book retelling connects Elijah’s dramatic contest with Jesus’ death and resurrection, helping young children explore the Bible’s message about the one true God. With vivid illustrations and clear storytelling, it invites readers to consider why Jesus can be trusted.
