We Met Yeshua Today Bilingual Children's Book
Yahweh is the source. The Word is the final authority.
Melanated Scripture creates premium children's books, immersive Bible audio, apparel, and digital resources centered on the World English Bible Restored. Our mission is simple: help families encounter Scripture through historically grounded storytelling that reflects the world of the Bible.
Finding children's Bible books that faithfully reflect the historical setting of Scripture can be difficult. Many families want resources that honor both the Gospel and the diverse peoples of the biblical world while remaining rooted in the authority of God's Word.
We Met Yeshua Today was created for those families.
Inspired by Mark 10:13–16, this bilingual children's book invites young readers into one of Scripture's most beautiful moments as Yeshua welcomes little children with open arms.
Scripture Spotlight: Mark 10:13–16 (World English Bible)
"Most certainly I tell you, whoever doesn't receive God's Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it." He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
Mark 10:15–16 (WEB)
Everything Melanated Scripture creates begins with the Word.
In this passage, Yeshua doesn't merely acknowledge the children—He welcomes them, embraces them, and blesses them. His disciples tried to send them away, but Yeshua called them near, making children an example of those who inherit the Kingdom of God.
We Met Yeshua Today invites children to imagine that moment through immersive storytelling and historically grounded artwork inspired by the world of the Bible.
A Children's Bible Book That Makes Scripture Feel Personal
Parents want more than Bible stories—they want children to know Yeshua personally.
When Scripture feels distant, children may struggle to imagine themselves within the biblical narrative. Our goal is to remove that distance by presenting the Gospel within its historical context while keeping Scripture at the center of every page.
Rather than reinventing the Bible, We Met Yeshua Today simply invites children into one of its most comforting moments.
Historically Grounded Biblical Artwork
Every illustration was created to reflect the historical setting of the biblical world.
The environments, clothing, architecture, and people are inspired by the regions where Scripture unfolded. Our goal is to help children visualize the world of the Bible while remaining faithful to its cultural and historical context.
When children recognize that the Bible took place among real people in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, Scripture becomes more tangible and more personal.
Bilingual Bible Books for Multilingual Families
Faith is often passed from one generation to the next around the dinner table, during bedtime, and through everyday conversation.
That's why We Met Yeshua Today is available in multiple bilingual editions, making it easy for multilingual families to read Scripture together.
Available editions include:
English
English–Spanish
English–French
Swahili
Portuguese
Whether used during family devotions, homeschooling, Sunday school, or bedtime reading, these editions help children grow in both language and biblical literacy.
Why We Use the Name Yeshua
Names matter.
Throughout this book, we use the name Yeshua to reflect the Messiah's historical Hebraic name and to help readers connect with the biblical world in which the Gospel took place.
This approach encourages children to explore the historical roots of their faith while remaining centered on the authority of Scripture.
Raising Children with a Biblical Identity
Children develop their understanding of themselves long before they can fully explain it.
When they regularly encounter Scripture that reflects its historical setting, they learn that God's story includes people from many nations and backgrounds. They also learn the unchanging truth that every person is created in the image of Yahweh and invited into His Kingdom through Yeshua.
Our hope is that every child finishes this book knowing they are loved, welcomed, and called by God.
