Author Description

The idea behind "Does God Take Messages?" is to give an explanation of faith in a way that is accessible to children aged 4-10. The story tells of an imaginative girl who is trying to understand God in the context of our modern world, yet sees irony in the thought that God is able to answer everyone's prayers all at once. "How does he do it?" she wonders. An adult can accept the idea of faith in God, where children cannot touch or see the abstract faith they hold, so sometimes it will not make sense to them. The young girl learns to have faith and truly believe in God with the help of her mom and a simple explanation. It's an amusing and heart-warming story for children, as well as their parents, to enjoy.
