About our christian stories

Christian short stories about faith, forgiveness and grace: a boy who learns to hear God in kindness and silence, a shepherd who brings faith back to a struggling village, a merchant in ancient Jerusalem who understands the parable of the mustard seed, and stories retelling the birth and life of Jesus. Some are set in Bible times, others in small villages where faith is tested in everyday ways.

They're gentle and suitable for the whole family, for Sunday school or a quiet moment of reflection, and each takes only a few minutes.
