Living Through Love, Identity, and Representation
(YourDigitalWall Editorial):- Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey Feb 13, 2026 (Issuewire.com) – Dr. Deitria Smith-Snead, Ph.D., proudly announces the release of Ten Loving Ways of YAHUAH, a beautifully crafted faith-based children’s book that introduces the Ten Commandments through the language of love, kindness, and cultural identity. Created for early readers, the book offers families a meaningful way to teach biblical principles while affirming spiritual heritage and representation.
Drawing from more than 30 years of experience in education and her role as a mother, Dr. Smith-Snead reimagines the commandments as “Loving Ways” and “good choices.” This gentle approach transforms traditional instruction into affirming lessons that help children understand righteousness as a joyful and peaceful way of life.
Rather than focusing on rules alone, the book emphasizes relationship–showing children that obedience flows naturally from love for the Creator and care for others.
