Parables

Good stories communicate wisdom better than lectures. As Christian parents, we want to reach the heart of our children to develop godly character. What better way than to tell stories based on God’s Word? Plus, children love stories!

The following stories which I have written contain timeless wisdom that can be shared at a mealtime or bedtime with your children. Let the story drive your followup discussion, no lectures needed.
