The Parable of the Young Priest
The Parable of the Young Priest is another tremendous book written by Melvin Douglas Wilson, the author of The Good Book, The Parable of the Spirit that Whispers, and Jimmy's Got A Gun - The Crash Brothers Forever. The Parable of the Young Priest brings out an important biblical theme to children concerning one of the most powerful forces in the world today, which is love. This book applies the use of a parable, and exceptional illustrations throughout the book to paint a clear and vivid picture in the mind of readers the importance of love in our daily lives. The Parable of the Young Priest also teaches a very valuable lesson: "It's not about whom you may know in this world, or what you may know in this world, but it is about the love that you show to God first, and the many other people that you come in contact with in this journey we call life." The Parable of the Young Priest has been re-written primarily for children ages six to twelve, but the great biblical themes in the story can provide wisdom and moral teaching for adults of all ages.
Little Gabriel Sat on a Shelf
Gabriel, like most children, has a very creative imagination. One day, when he was bored, he decided to use his imagination to experience many grand adventures. He had fun at first but then realized that there must be more to life than just choosing to spend his time on activities that were not fulfilling and rewarding. He decided that it might be important to seek God about what he should do with his time, realizing that God always knows best. When he finally asked God, his life began to have more meaning and purpose, and the adventures began to benefit others in the process.This book is based on Bible passages out of Isaiah 58:7-12, 14 (New Living Translation)"No, this is the kind of fasting I want: Free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you. Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people. Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help. Then your salvation will come like the dawn, and your wounds will quickly heal. Your godliness will lead you forward, and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind. Then when you call, the Lord will answer. 'Yes, I am here, ' He will quickly reply. Remove the heavy yoke of oppression. Stop pointing your finger and speaking vicious rumors! Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring. Some of you will rebuild the deserted ruins of your cities. Then you will be known as a rebuilder of walls and a restorer of homes...Then the Lord will be your delight. I will give you great honor and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I, the Lord, have spoken!"
Anxious Abby and The Camp Trust ChallengeBible Truths for Kids Who Worry
So many children are struggling with anxiety in the world today. Where do parents turn? We need to lead our children to the peace that only Jesus can give them. Biblical counselor, Alyssa Cathers, M.A., has created a beautifully illustrated children's book, Anxious Abby and The Camp Trust Challenge, that takes the abstract concept of anxiety and makes it understandable to children through the symbol of a backpack filled with Worry characters. Children learn that they have a choice to hold onto their anxiety or take it off like a backpack. They are empowered to fill their minds with Grandslam Bible Truths rather than worries. Not only will children love reading all about Abby's adventures at Camp Trust and seeing who wins the softball game, they also are given "Your Turn" biblical counseling activities to apply the material to their lives. Alyssa has provided a Coaching Kids letter, Homerun Helps, and a kid's note from Coach Courage. Anxious Abby and The Camp Trust Challenge is especially designed for children ages 6-12. It is a wonderful tool to use in counseling children who have trouble with anxiety!

As a senior in high school, he committed his life to serve God, and went on to graduate from Pensacola Christian College.

The Incredible Adventures of Absolutely NormalTheIncredible Adventures of Absolutely Norma
The kingdom of Gwytthenia is in peril. A plague has festered and has transformed the once beautiful land into one of dearth and danger. After years of exile in His castle and feeling like an unwelcome stranger in his own land, the good King sends trusted emissaries to our world in order to fetch a hero. Enter Samuel Christopher McCubbins: an extraordinary boy who is handsome, brave, smart, well-liked, and everything a hero should be.But this story is not about Samuel.For from the bed where Samuel should be, the king's emissaries find and abscond with Samuel's cousin, Albert, a boy who is -by anyone's estimation, including his own- absolutely normal.When Albert wakes up, he is stranded, hurt, and alone in a snowbank. There, he is discovered by a gruff but loveable penguin named Malarkey. Once he has nursed Albert back to health, Malarkey tells Albert to find the King and ask why he was brought here.This simple, straightforward quest on which Malarkey sends Albert turns out to be, well, malarkey. Instead, Albert finds himself facing one disaster after another: giant spiders, monsters of many heads, and near starvation in the crossings of a wilderness, among other dangers. Yet, through it all he perseveres, finding friendship and kindness in the uncanny forms of dwarves obsessed with 1950's Americana, flying bears, fierce warrior women, and many others.The Incredible Adventures of Absolutely Normal is an old-fashioned fairytale, reminiscent of The Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings. It lays out for readers the making of a hero and shows them how strength lies within us all, if only we have the courage to look for it.
