Critics Review
“Imagine a book of Bible stories that children read so often the cover gets worn. You can tell their favorite pages because they’re dog-eared and maybe even a bit torn. God with Us is that book: a beautiful, compelling, intimate retelling of the Bible’s most beloved stories, one that children will read over and over again.”—Shawn Smucker, author of The Day the Angels Fell
“God with Us is so beautiful, so fun, so helpful! Matt has brought the biblical story to life. I can’t wait to give a copy to each of my ten grandchildren.”—Judy Douglass, author, speaker, and global director for Cru Women’s Resources
“The road from Emmaus to Jerusalem is estimated to be about seven miles. The Bible story of the Road to Emmaus is two thousand years old. In God with Us, writer Matt Mikalatos and artist Dave Shephard take us back to that journey, bridging both time and distance to breathe fresh insights into familiar stories. Highly recommended!”—Joe Field, Flying Colors Comics, Concord, California

David Shephard’s illustration career spanned nearly forty years, and his clients included many design and advertising agencies, book publishers, magazines, and newspapers. Over the years he found himself more and more drawn to illustration for children and teenagers. He illustrated many children’s books and graphic novels from his Sussex studio, which had a cracking view of the Norman castle next door.
