A Tiny Seed Becomes a Mighty Tree

The Word of God is a source of affirmation and encouragement, particularly for young children still discovering who they are. In MATTHEW 13 Jesus shared the parable of the sower, and explained in verse 23 - "But the seed that fell on good soil is like those who hear the message and understand it. They produce a crop 100, 60 or 30 times more." This encourages us to keep our hearts pure, allowing the seed of the Word of God to grow and produce great fruit. 

All around us in nature there are lessons and principles that God wants us all to understand. Using simple rhymes and relatable examples, A Tiny Seed Becomes a Mighty Tree draws a kid-friendly parallel between the growth of a seed and our personal growth in Christ.

"Then Jesus said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? How can I illustrate it? It is like a tiny mustard seed that a man planted in a garden; it grows and becomes a tree, and the birds make nests in its branches." 

As part of an introductory collection by the author, A Tiny Seed Becomes a Mighty Tree is filled with declarations inspired by and pulled directly from passages in the Bible. 

Whether read aloud with a parent, memorized as simple poetry or translated into song, these declarations will be enjoyed over and over again, helping children to understand and appreciate God's design. Simple language combined with rich vocabulary supports the needs of emerging readers, while carefully-selected imagery, diverse portraits and graphics in a hand-drawn style, provide a relatable reference for young children of any background.
