In this edition we start The Tales of the Kingdom, by David and Karen Mains. I am reading from the first edition, published in 1983 by David C. Cook. The book has beautiful color pictures (one per chapter) by Jack Stockman.

A precious supporter sent this book to us— along with the second one in the series, at the time we were living in the rain forest of Papua, Indonesia. Our children were at just the right ages to enjoy the full impact of these stories. And now it is a joy for me to read these to you, with the hope that our grandkids will eventually hear these stories as well.

These are written as allegories. You will enjoy the deep parable-like meanings that underlie the story of characters with names like Caretaker, Mercy, and Hero.


Check out this episode!
