My First Parables: Instant Bible Lessons is a six week lesson guide for children ages 2-5. The lessons teach three parables: the parable of the sower, the parable of the unforgiving servant, and the parable of the lost sheep. Each parable spans two weeks to give the children plenty of time to soak in the message. My First Parables: Instant Bible Lessons provides two lessons for each parable with step-by-step teaching guides, puppet patterns, coloring pages, activities, games, crafts, and songs (with free access to audio recordings). The lessons in this book correspond with the My First Parables series. Where the Seeds Fall is a reimagining of the parable of the sower, in which children read about Jesus and his invitation to everyone. What I Learned This Christmas retells parable of the unforgiving servant. Children read about the importance forgiveness, especially when our emotions boil over When Jack Came Back tells the parable of the lost sheep and captures the urgency with which Jesus, the good shepherd, pursues his sheep and the joy he feels when he finds them. The storybooks are not included; they are available from Amazon.com and other retail outlets. For more information visit www.facebook.com/CobblerStreetBooks/
