The characters are described, their thoughts and attitudes, and their influence and effect on others through the passage. - The key plot points inform about the order and details of the events and actions, and highlight the conflicts with God, with others, or within the characters. - The passages and beautiful images link the stories of the Bible together pointing forward or back to other events. - The reflection space encourages readers to consider what stands out in the passage and how the story may connect and relate to a specific life situation and today's world. - The stories are structured through the church worship cycle, increasing biblical literacy through engagement and accessible information. The Candle Youth Bible is based on the resources by TUMI, a ministry of World Impact.
