Win A Kindle Fire & Tales Of the Not Forgotten Book Review!!

About the Book: 

Follow these real-life stories as they take you on a journey to faraway lands and unknown faces. Travel through their challenges and see the hand of the great Storyweaver writing endings you’d never imagine!

Joel dares to ask for what he can’t have. Seraphina sacrifices what she can’t afford to give. Ibrahim looks for an answer buried out of reach. Christiana, saved by a mission, searches for her own.

These are the tales of the ones the world doesn’t see . . . the tales of the not forgotten.

In this collection of four real-life stories written for preteens, a compelling storyteller paints a picture of God’s dynamic movement in four foreign cultures, inspiring children to trust that God is weaving a story in their lives as well.

This resource will shrink the macro picture down to approachable, individual stories of real children and teach about fundamental survival issues. The stories address some of the challenging questions that kids have and weave God's promises to orphans into each one.

The Tales of the Not Forgotten Leader’s Guide is a 6-session kids' missions resource (sold separately) that walks adults through an easy-to-follow guide for making the abstract real and for designing an action plan to help others.

Preteens will be challenged to answer the questions:
How do I pray? What can I give? Where can I go? Who will I serve?

What I Thought About The Book:
I was absolutely enthralled with this book!  I could not put it down. For years this very subject has been near and dear to my heart, so to see someone express many of the same things I have been thinking and saying in such a wonderful way is a blessing. Beth brought home the fact that all of our lives are intricately entwined and we can not escape that. She also enforced that there is something each and every one of us is called to do and we need to be receptive and obedient to that call. Although this book was written primarily for teens I can really see this being something to hit home with many adults. They need to hear this as much as the young people do.
I really love the Leader's Resource that came with it. So many helpful things are available to share this amazing book with a class to help inspire them to do the same as Beth and the others in the book.
