Take your child on a walk through the Bible!


Walk Thru the Bible’s OT39 Flashcards and NT27 Flashcards sets are an innovative, memorable, and FUN way to learn the “big ideas” of the Old or New Testament! Eye-catching graphics filled with lots of hidden keys help unlock the big ideas, major themes, important people, and events of each book—from Genesis to Malachi, from Matthew to Revelation.


Each set of flashcards comes with one card for each book of the Old or New Testament. Side 1 of each card is a colorful illustration that shows the major theme (or keyword) of each book of the Old or New Testament. Side 2 of each card details the big idea and the overview of the book.


Once each clue is discovered and the key to the visuals is learned, your child will be able to describe with incredible detail the major theme of each book, the important people, places, and events in each book, and the big picture of the Old or New Testament. Use the cards as a game, as fill-in-the-blanks, as a memory tool, and more!
