New for Children this Christmas! Scott Pauley

From time to time I enjoy sharing a recommendation of some helpful resource for families. We are approaching a time of year that is very special for parents and their children and it is my hope that dads and moms will make the most of this season to teach their children more about the things of God. The seasonal things are always enjoyable but the spiritual realities are what will help our sons and daughters through every season!

Our friends at Bible Tracts, Inc. have just published a gospel-centered coloring book for kids. The Characters of Christmas spotlights 55 characters in 16 pages and is beautifully done to explain the message of Christ’s coming for children. It is a tremendous tool for both reaching children with the gospel and teaching children more of God’s truth.

My home church has ordered many of these to give away and I would like to encourage you to do the same. This is a gift with purpose! You can order the coloring books in bulk for a donation here. It is my prayer that the Lord will use this gospel tool to bring the truth to many and to bring many children to Jesus.

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder.

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.
