Pairables 2 is a collection of lively short stories that pair with Bible accounts - a fresh, inviting path for children ages 6 - 14 to explore God's word

Contests, camp, crafts, danger, fun... Talia, now age 14, Mika, 11, and Chloe, 8, are back with more adventures Through good times and challenges, they discover treasure in God's word - truth that sets their hearts free Each short story is a modern parable that pairs with an account in the Bible or an age-appropriate Bible history book. Because the action in the stories takes place among the children, the stories are inclusive of children in every type of home or life situation including traditional homes, foster care, single parent, grandparent-led home, and more. Pairables 2 is warmly welcoming to all children with no barriers to understanding they are precious and seen by a wonderful God who loves them deeply

Here's an example of how story, scripture, and life application work together in each chapter of Pairables 2:

* In "Message Gone Viral", a video of Mika being thrown from her bike but saved by her bike helmet goes viral on social media. As it draws reactions, both good and bad, she understands the message is too important not to share.

Pairs with: Gospel accounts - Jesus' parable of sowing seed

Jesus' parable of sowing seed teaches us we have a message too important not to share. We can't control how that message of salvation is received, but Jesus promises there will be a good harvest.

Each story includes:

A reference pairing the story to an account in the Bible or a Bible history book.A verse to rememberThinky-thought life connectionsAn encouraging prayer starterA whimsical illustration by teen artist Miley Joy
