As a ministry to moms and mentors, The M.O.M. Initiative loves to share about new books, resources and ministries that minister to families! Today, we are blessed to share two great new books with you that we know you’ll love!
I miss the days when I sat beside my boys with a book in hand and a story that captivated their attention. I LOVED Adventures in Odyssey then and I LOVE Adventures in Odyssey now.
Today, I’d like to share with you a bit about two new books by Adventures in Odyssey’s Imagination Station and INVITE YOU TO ENTER TO WIN A COPY OF YOUR OWN. TODAY, WE’RE GIVING AWAY ONE OF EACH!
Escape to the Hiding Place
In this adventure, Patrick and Beth find themselves in Holland in the middle of World War II. Reminiscent of “The Hiding Place”, their quest is to secretly smuggle a Jewish baby to her mother by way of Corrie Ten Boom. Their journey is riddle with detours, danger, distractions and intrigue.
Along the way, Patrick and Beth met people whose faith was strong even though their lives were hard; they encountered a Christian doctor who was forced to serve as a doctor for the German troops; they encouraged strangers, especially three little children who hadn’t been able to get out and play for three years. Finally they found what they had been looking for…The Hiding Place.
Escape to the Hiding will encourage children to help those who can’t help themselves, to courageously face opposition and to do what is right in a world where even adults are doing what is wrong. You will definitely want to read this with your children.
Battle for Cannibal Island
After some heavy-duty shaking of Imagination Station and a blink of an eye, Patrick and Beth wind up as stowaways on the wooden planks of a ship headed straight for the Fiji Islands. Patrick and Beth are relieved to find out the captain is a Christian, but what Patrick hopes will be a vacation turns into a nightmare for everyone.
Patrick and a sailor named Nettleton are thrown overboard during a storm and find themselves in shark infested water when Nettleton rescues Patrick from the jaws of what could have been his death. But finding shelter on an island full of cannibals was not any safer. Yet, that’s where they met a missionary named James Calvert and learned what sacrificial and unconditional love looked like for those who were willing to give everything to reach the unreached with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Separated during the storm, Patrick winds up with the cannibal king and Beth is blessed to follow missionary, James Calvert. Both face danger along the way and learn lessons about life, love, courage and commitment that will linger in their hearts for a lifetime.
Battle for Cannibal Island will spark courage, teach unconditional love and help children understand how to love the unloveable. It’s also a great conversation starter for parents who want to discuss what unconditional love, bravery and loyalty look like in real life.
We know how precious it is to curl up and read a book with your kids! Treasured time! So, grab a book, sweet mom, and make some memories while you encourage character! There’s really nothing quite like it!
We’re giving away two books today… ONE OF EACH! So, now’s your chance to enter to win a copy of one of our featured books today.
