Twelve hidden heroes: New Testament (Book 1)
Many children and young people dream of becoming rich and famous. Most of them will never fulfil that dream. Sometimes we can become so fascinated by people who appear important that we fail to notice those who work non-stop behind the scenes. Many people know the famous Bible stories from the New Testament. This book looks at some of these stories from a different viewpoint. It considers some of the unnoticed characters who are rarely mentioned but whose actions made a massive difference. The stories show us that those people who stay in the background are just as important as those in the spotlight, in fact without them the stories may never have happened! This book encourages children and young people to realize that, whatever their gifts and abilities, God can use them in an amazing way and that he has a very special plan for their lives.
