What's a Human? Discover the truth about your origin, purpose and destiny
What makes a human different from an animal?
Are we just bodies, or is there something more?
Why did God create us, and what gives our lives meaning?
Join the Young Defenders Academy as we explore one of life's biggest questions: What's a Human?
In this engaging, full-color book, children ages 8–12 discover that every person is wonderfully created by God with a body, soul, and spirit. Through fun illustrations, simple explanations, thought-provoking activities, and Bible-based teaching, young readers will learn:
What makes humans unique among all living things
How our body, soul, and spirit work together
Why every human being has value because we are made in God's image
How our thoughts, emotions, and choices shape our lives
Why our spirit longs for a relationship with God
How to care for our whole person—not just our body
Why every life has a purpose and an eternal destiny
Written from an Orthodox Christian perspective, this book helps children build a strong biblical foundation while encouraging them to think carefully, ask good questions, and seek God's truth.
Perfect for:
Children ages 8–12
Christian families
Sunday schools
Homeschooling
Christian classrooms
Anyone helping children understand their identity in Christ
The "What's...?" Series lays the foundation for the Young Defenders Academy, helping children understand who they are, why they are here, and how to recognize truth before exploring bigger questions about science, history, and the Christian faith.
Because before we can understand the world around us, we must first understand who God created us to be.
