Genesis to Revelation is part of the Faith for life collection and provides evocative photos matched to clear and familiar devotional moments celebrating the goodness of God with selected Scripture excerpts.
The beautifully designed 72-page book can be used one reflection at a time, or as many as you like, in any order, by holding the book so that it is easy to see for the person with dementia while the support person reads the reflections and prayers on the facing page. Each image corresponds with the facing page which offers selected Scripture stories with a thought for the day.
Why Faith for life?
Faith endures through every season of life, including for people living with dementia. Faith for life acknowledges the profound dignity of the person with dementia, their desire to express and explore faith while also recognising changing needs. Using simple, uncluttered design and familiar and much-loved references, the Faith for life suite of resources enables engagement with the Bible and Christian practice, supporting ongoing spiritual growth.
