A journey shaped by faith, secrets, and healing

Three young people—an 11-year-old boy, a 7-year-old girl, and a teenager—travel with Jesus and an angel, gathering seeds that represent the beginnings of healing from painful experiences. Their journey includes imagined destinations and encounters such as picnics with angels, a sky ride, and a bridge under construction. The shared secret that connects the children gives the story a common thread, while Christian faith frames its movement toward hope, direction, and friendship with Jesus. The description also presents the book as a story about coping with hurt and reaching out to people in need.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in Christian fiction
  • Younger readers drawn to stories about faith and imaginative journeys
  • Readers seeking stories that address hurt, coping, and hope

Book overview

"...this story of an incredible journey is a gift and a blessing for each fortunate reader." - Art Gorman

 

Join an 11-year-old boy, a 7-year-old girl, and a teenage girl on an unexpected adventurous journey led by Jesus and an angel. Along the way, they discover they have something in common each has kept a secret. As they travel they gather seeds needed to begin healing from the hurtful things they've experienced. By the end of the journey for the first time they have hope and direction, and they know for certain they will always have a special friend in Jesus.

 

- Travel with them to places they could never have imagined.

- Have picnics with angels, take a sky ride, cross a ravine on a bridge as it's being built, and more.

- Learn how they collect the seeds as they travel.

 

Not only an exciting story in itself, but it can also help those hurting to begin to heal and others to reach out to those in need.

 

"Your story is very warm, sensitive, and nurturing. One of the things I like the best is that you demonstrate and describe excellent coping strategies...I think it will be a gift to all kids, especially to abused kids." - Constance J. Schweigert, MSW, Clinical Social Worker with over 40 years of experience working with children.

 

"...this book can serve as a blessed guide to hope, healing, and a colorful light-filled view of life." - * Art Gorman, Elementary School teacher, Christian youth leader.

 

The author majored in theology and psychology, worked with hurting children, and is a former elementary school teacher.
