The Good News Must Go Out by Rebecca Davis

A sultan whose three hundred wives were buried alive . . . cannibals who believed there was no such thing as a white woman . . . an elegant French lady who watched in horror as the missionary performed surgery on her kitchen table . . . . These are just a few of the real people encountered in these true missionary stories of Margaret Nicholl Laird in her ministry in the Central African Republic, as she and many others gave their lives in service of the King of Glory, whose Good News could not be stopped. Second in the Hidden Heroes series of true missionary books for children.

A "Thinking Further" section in the back of the book gives Scripture verses and discussion questions for each chapter.

With Two Hands by Rebecca Davis

Why would a crippled old man wait by the side of the road every day for twenty years? Why would a slave and a witch doctor walk for three days to find a man called Jesus? Why would a lame man purposely walk to a tribe where he knew he could be killed? Sixteen captivating true episodes from the ministry of missionary Dick McLellan in Ethiopia, as well as many national missionaries, show the power of God in the midst of darkness. One by one the people declared, "With this hand I renounce the devil and all his works! With this hand I embrace my Savior Jesus Christ! All I am and all I have! Two hands!" First in the Hidden Heroes series of true missionary stories for children.

A "Thinking Further" section in the back of the book gives Scripture verses and discussion questions for each chapter.

Witness Men by Rebecca Davis

In 1938, in the remote highlands of a mountainous island, explorers discovered thousands upon thousands of tribal people. Missionaries began to come, to bring the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Little did they know that many of the people of the tribes were waiting . . . waiting . . . for someone to come and help them out of the darkness of their old way of life. Fifteen chapters recount the true missionary stories of the gospel spreading throughout the highlands of Papua, Indonesia, from 1955 to 2010, when one of the tribes received their first New Testaments. Third in the Hidden Heroes series of true missionary stories for children.

A "Thinking Further" section in the back of the book gives Scripture verses and discussion questions for each chapter.

Emmy Lou's New Shoes by Edith Martin

“You better stay out of the creek today. The water is too high to wade,” Mom had said. But when Becky came to play, Emmy didn’t want to hear that little warning voice in her head. Emmy Lou hated disappointing Becky. So when Becky suggested, “Let’s walk across the creek just one time, “ Emmy Lou picked up her shoes and led the way. The sun was bright and warm, and it was so fun to share her creek with a friend. Suddenly there was a splash, and one new shoe swirled away in the rushing brown water. A repentant Emmy Lou wished she could go back and do that day over again. She can’t, but she soon has opportunity to apply the hard lesson she learned. A true story.

Daddy on the Mend by Tina Fehr

Andrew stood stiff and alert beside Daddy’s bed. Little Sharilyn stared with wide eyes from Mom’s arms. Christopher clung to Mom’s skirt, and Megan gripped Grandma’s hand. Daddy opened his eyes and smiled a little at Andrew. “God is taking care of me,” he said. But his voice was not the strong, cheerful Daddy-voice that Andrew was used to hearing. All summer while Daddy’s broken leg heals, Andrew and his family learn about God’s care, their church family’s love, and about being patient and kind. Daddy on the Mend is a true story the whole family will enjoy.

Who Taught the Bird?

Full Text of Who Taught the Bird?
Just returned from South America, Uncle Edward had wonderful stories to tell his nieces and nephews.
“I’ll tell you a snake story,” said the young man. “One beautiful morning, I roamed off as usual, with gun over my shoulder, and my lunch in my pocket, in search of game.
“After a while, feeling rather tired and very hungry, I sat down on a fallen tree to rest.
“While seated there, my attention was attracted by the cries of a bird which was fluttering over a leafy spot, doubtless her tiny nest. She was in great distress, and I could not help rising to see, if possible, the cause of her trouble. I soon found out. Creeping slowly along towards the tree was one of the most venomous snakes in South America, with its small glittering eyes fixed on the bird, and its forked tongue darting quickly out and in.
“Soon I saw a curious thing happen. The male bird flew quickly away. In a little while I saw him return with a small twig covered with leaves in his beak. Perching near the nest, he laid the twig carefully across it, covering his mate and her young. Then, taking his place on one of the topmost branches of the tree, he seemed to grow quieter, and there awaited the approach of the enemy.
“By this time the snake had reached the spot. He twisted himself around the trunk and climbed up the tree. Then gliding along the branch, he came close to the nest and lifted his venomous head, ready to dart upon the poor bird. His small, glittering eyes watched the nest for a moment, and then — “
Uncle Edward paused but the children hurried him on with the story.
“ — then suddenly throwing his head back, as if he had received some sudden blow, he turned around, made his way down the tree and disappeared in the long grass.
“I climbed up the tree and examined the little broken branch. I carried it home and told the whole story to a native friend, showing him the twig. I learned from him that it had been picked by the bird from a bush which is poisonous to the snake and which he is never known to touch. The little helpless creature had used it as a shield of defense.
Satan is called in Scripture “that old serpent.” He is intent on the destruction of men and women and boys and girls, helpless as birds against his attacks and cleverness.
But God has told us in His Word of a tree that is poison to our enemy, and is certain protection for us, old and young. I mean the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ “His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree” (1 Peter 2:24). “With His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).
Isn’t it wonderful that our gracious God should teach the bird about the tree where it may “help itself” to a healing branch? And is it less wonderful that He has provided the cross, and the great salvation accomplished there by our Lord Jesus Christ for us? No, it is the most remarkable fact in the universe that the Son of God “loved me and gave Himself for me” (Galatians 2:20), and that salvation is for “whosoever will.” Will YOU?
“In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him” (1 John 4:9).
“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12).

Growing with the Millers by Mildred A Martin

Gather around the table with Sharon, Peter, Timmy, Laura and Beth Miller, and read about how Timmy saves an elderly neighbor's life, Sharon teaches summer Bible school, Peter shoots the wrong deer, Sioux Indians return good for evil, and much more! As always, each "Miller" story is based on true incidents and illustrates verses from Scripture.

Other: Miller Family series. The Miller Family books can be read independently and there is no need to read them in chronological order as each book, and even each chapter stands alone. However, the children do grow older through the stories and thus the chronological order for this series is: Storytime with the Millers, Wisdom and the Millers, Missionary Stories with the Millers, Prudence and the Millers, School Days with the Millers, Growing with the Millers. The ages of the children in this family are quite spread out so the books appeal to a wide age group. Illustrations of women show Mennonite headcoverings.
