The Hammer of Hope reiterates that everyone and everything is significant in God's redemption plan. The hammer was used in the Bible to show the power of Jesus's salvation, in stories from the flood to the Gospel. Educator Katie Jo Hook beautifully displays how even the seemingly smallest parts of God's redemption story are powerful and shows young readers how God wants to use them to change the world too. The Hammer of Hope fosters young readers' need for Christ, featuring themes of relying on Christ and overcoming the odds to emphasize the power of God's redemptive grace.
