Picture Books in Ministry

Picture books are an important part of ministry with children and their families, particularly during difficult times. Our collection in Caven Library includes books about death, dying, separation, divorce, and anxiety. Because they distill big ideas and concepts into simpler forms, picture books are ideal for introducing challenging topics and inviting listeners of all ages into deeper wondering and conversation.
