When The Light First Shone

By Jasmine Shaw

A Child's View of the Very Beginning...

What was it like when God first spoke the world into being?

Step into the garden through the eyes of Jamarie, a curious little girl who witnesses the wonder of creation, the sadness of the fall, and the whisper of a rescue plan.

When the Light First Shone is a gentle, poetic retelling of Genesis 1-3 for young hearts, blending Scripture truth with imaginative storytelling. Perfect for reading aloud, this story invites families to explore God's love, justice, and unshakable promise-together.

Because even when everything changed, God's love never did.
