A unique and delightful children’s book about how God’s glory can be found all around us every day, from the award-winning author of Cora Cooks Pancit.

“Mama, what exactly is glory?”

When Zayla asks her mom to describe God’s glory, Mama knows it’s time for an adventure! Together, Mama and Zayla discover how sunrises and dancing, daffodils and green peppers, kind words and loving hugs—and more!—are all reminders of God’s glory.

Award-winning author Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young’s rich multicultural story and Alyssa De Asis’s vibrant artwork make Chasing God’s Glory a unique invitation to notice and celebrate the radiance of God’s light and love as you and your family become “glory chasers.”

“Bright, lively illustrations capture the glory of God’s amazing world through the eyes of an inquisitive girl and her insightful mother.”—The Banner

"Rise and shine and give God the glory, glory," Mama sings.

Glory? Zayla thinks, wrinkling her nose. "Mama, we talk and sing about glory at church, but what is glory?"

"Well, that's a good question," Mama says with a broad smile. "Let's go look for it."

"Do you see the sunrise painted in the sky?" Mama asks. "That's an example of God's glory."
