The Key to Easter

Book Cover & Preview Text
Once upon a time there was a man and a woman who lived in a wonderful, perfect world, a paradise. The animals could talk with them and they had plenty of food to eat on all the trees. (I wonder if they had a cookie tree, or maybe a chocolate tree!) They had a wonderful Father who took care of them and loved them. He provided everything they would ever need or want. Their Father would tuck them in at night on a soft blanket of grass underneath the stars. The stars played music. They would listen to them as they fell asleep. Sometimes the little lambs and lion cubs would cuddle up with them.

About the Book
This story was originally written after praying for a unique Easter Program for a small country church outreach. Jesus used parables a lot to explain things when He walked on the earth, and this parable explains what Easter is all about on a child’s level. This story explains sin, separation from God, and why the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus are so important. It will explain why Jesus is the Key to Easter. The need for a book like this is so relevant in our world today with so many bunnies, eggs, and chicks being the only representation of Easter to our children. If statistics are correct, not a lot of children are attending church in our world right now, and it is hoped that this book will reach a generation of children that will fall in love with Jesus and receive Him into their heart.
