Sample Story from The Beginner's Bible

The Lost Coin
| "Once there was a woman who had ten silver coins, " said Jesus.
|
|
| "Sometimes she would count them. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten ... ten coins. One day something was wring. one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine ... nine? only nine? Where could the other coin be? |
|
| She lit her lamp so she could see under the furniture. She even swept her house looking for the coin. Suddenly she saw it! She picked it up and called her friends. 'Be happy with me,' she said. 'I have found my lost coin.'" |
|
| God is like that woman. He wants to find his people who are not following him. They are lost from him. He wants them to follow him again. Then they will be found and God will be happy! |
