The Story of the Lost Sheep

The Lord is my shepherd; I have what I need (Psalm 23:1). Parables were a big part of Jesus’s ministry on earth and included many important truths that we, and our children, still need to hear today. But parables can often be challenging to retell to our children. While it’s hard enough to try to make them engaging, it also requires much work to know what the main point of the story is. This is why we created a beautifully illustrated picture book that creatively retells one of Jesus’s beloved parables: the parable of the lost sheep. The Story of the Lost Sheep will: - Creatively retell the parable of the lost sheep in a fun and engaging way so that your children will understand its message. - Teach your children about God’s great love for them—He continually seeks them when they’re lost and all alone. - Help your children see Jesus as their Shepherd who protects, cares for, and guides them. - Guide your children to trust in Jesus because His love will never leave them.
