Gift ideas for my nephews

Do you think they might enjoy Adventures in Odyssey audio stories?

Also, I picked up The Brick Bible for my boys the other day. They are loving looking at it, and remembering stories we have already read. Basically, the author created most of the major Bible stories from Lego, and photographed them. Not super deep spiritually, but may pique their interest?

Katrina – I remember looking at the Brick Bible a while back.  Unless someone else has done it since then, there were some sexually explicit lego figures acting out certain bible scenes.  I just double checked on Amazon – and the reviews are confirming what I was remembering.  Is there another one out there besides this one?  If so, please share, because my boys love legos, and while the idea is great, the heart behind the reason he chose to do it was not. 
Here is one of the reviews from Amazon.com about the Brick Bible:
I don’t usually do this, but I’m going to comment on this book, despite not having read it. For those thinking this is a great way to show Bible stories to your Lego-loving kids (like I did), think again. The author makes a mockery and is opposition to our great, loving God. Here is an excerpt from his own website so that you know his heart:

“One of the best things about Bible stories is that they remind us to teach our kids the moral values that we might not think to teach them otherwise. Take for example: racial intolerance, deception, and favoritism. The four new stories added to the Genesis section of the Brick Testament website today begin with the patriarch Abraham aghast at the idea of his son Isaac marrying anyone of the Canaanite race. We move on to Isaac deceiving foreigners about his wife. Then Isaac and Rebekah bear twins, and each favors one twin more than the other, culminating in Rebekah and Jacob using lies and deception to fool blind, elderly Isaac and screw over Esau. These are not merely the upstanding (if seldom taught) moral actions of the people God chose to bless above all others, but those practiced by God himself. So parents, teach your children well.” 

This is the one I was refering to:  http://www.amazon.com/The-Brick-Bible-Complete-Set/dp/1626361770/ref=pd_sim_b_5

Is there another version done by someone else?

Sara, would you mind sharing the name of the devotions book? I’ve been looking for a good one for my 5 and 7yo’s.

I’m sorry to hear that about the Lego Bible book, that’s really disappointing.  I have a lot of friends who would love to get that for their children, but now I’ll have to give them a head’s up.

Thanks!

I’m very glad to have read this thread, as I think my sister would have gotten the Brick Bible for my guys! I’ll have to give her the heads up! How upsetting that things like this get made!
