A Parable of Unexpected Mercy

By Daniel J. Christian

The parables that Jesus told illustrated important truths through simple stories that connected emotionally with His listeners. In this modern-day parable, children--and the adults who read to them--see the surprising mercy of God through the lavish love of an adoptive father who goes to great lengths to pursue the one he loves.Written primarily for school-age children, but with a foreword and afterword that older children and adults can learn from as well, this simple yet heartwarming story vividly portrays the mercy of God. Hailey Wada's striking illustrations enrich the story with emotion and depth, drawing the reader in to experience the heart of the father.
