Goodnight Moon

No matter what our age, we can all use some stories that bring us peace.

Berenstain Bears and The Truth

It’s simple: lying to others breaks trust at some level. So is trust something that can never be put back together once it’s broken?

Alexander and the Very Bad Day

Sort of a “why do bad things happen to good people” message, with the added benefit of hope over the troubles of this world. 

Hidden Treasures: Petunia

A goose teaches us how wisdom comes from reading, i.e., a bible on our bookshelf (or in our phone) doesn’t help unless we read it.

Don’t Poke the Bear

Here’s a grizzly story where we learn adults can be bullies, Christians can act ungodly, and words (spoken or written) can really hurt (but also heal).

Hog Wild

God uses a food lesson to teach a story about people…people we might treat as unclean pigs, showing no respect, and deeming them unworthy.

Cattle Drive

While we may be the sheep of God’s flock, we are not the cattle of God’s hills. So what does God want from us? (hint: not your cows.)

Smells Fishy

Ever doubt an angler’s “I caught a fish this big!” tall tale? That same suspicion of fishy stories can carry over to the bible. Unlike fishermen, though, God doesn’t lie.

Cat Videos

People really like being entertained by cats doing crazy stuff, but God did crazy stuff with wild cats to teach us three important life lessons. 

Sheep Therapy

Issues in life? Turns out sheep therapy is just what the doctor ordered. It’s even covered under one convenient assurance plan.
