  • Well, I think there are great lessons (0 / 0)

    in the Coat story, like "don't show favorites" and "when bad things happen, do your best and trust in God" (which is what happens with Joseph and he ends up VP of Egypt).

    And Ruth...I think Ruth gets to be a great lady (and the great-grandmother of King David...one of the only women to make it into the mentioned line of Jesus) because when her husband dies and she's given a choice between remarrying in her village or taking care of her MIL, she choses to help her MIL.  She meets her new husband while collecting food to feed the kind old lady.  So, "being nice has its rewards" I guess?

    I was raised by an evangelical, and probably have 10,000 verses memorized, and know nearly all these stories.  I'm fuzzy on Revelations, but then, who isn't.  Oh, and I've got NO IDEA what to do when it comes to my "new" books either (I just converted and Catholics have a few more books of the Bible than Protestants).

    Any "good" baby Bibles?  I'd love to read Rory some stories, and all I can find is Noah's Ark.

    What do you mean, uh-oh? Toddler & baby pictures
