Nicholas and His Neighbors

Each week in Children's church I am given the privilege of telling a story to the children. I enjoy doing so tremendously. I have five minutes so each story usually takes several weeks to complete. I also try to ask the kids a riddle or tell them a joke of some sort each week. When included I will put those at the end of each video. These videos are made at home during practices for the live telling. At church I do not usually read from the paper but instead just tell it from memory while clicking through the slide show you see in the video. I thought it would be neat to keep a collection of these practice runs for future use. Enjoy!










Kingdom Parables by Christopher A Lane

I recommend Kingdom Parables as a wonderful book to read to your children. The author Christopher Lane has done a wonderful job of taking parables from God's word and turning them into a mesmerizing tale to captivate a child's imagination with lovable animal characters without losing any of the important moral lesson Jesus meant for the parables to teach us about how to live and treat others.
