Come Fly With Me: A Child's Life of Christ (THEY MET JESUS) (Volume 8)

By Katheryn Maddox Haddad

Description:

CHILD'S VERSION. (Also available in adult regular print and large print versions.) His apostles refused to believe, while Thomas declared him God. Jesus dared and prepared his apostles to conquer the world. He interrupted his own memorial service and renewed five hundred of his closest friendships. He helped his brother, James, over the last faith hurdle, turned the movement over to his apostles, then returned at last to the outstretched arms of his heavenly Father. Religious leaders fought in vain to put out the new church’s torch, and Jesus invited the last apostle to visit him in heaven. Life application suggestions are at the end of each chapter.

Book Takeaway:

Come meet the people who met Jesus. You are one of them. Probably you are several of them. Go ahead and struggle with them as they did. Laugh. Cry. Do mental battle with him. Emotional battle too. Fight for your faith as they fought. Pause to listen for what you have never heard before. Then touch Jesus. This is the story of faith in the impossible. Hope in the inconceivable. Love for the invincible. It is the dreams of youth, the desperations of infirmity, the hopes of age, and the song of eternity.

Why the author wrote this book:

- I wanted to show children how they can let Jesus affect their life, just as he did the lives of both grownups and children while on earth.
