Tales of the Kingdom is the story of all of us, as we hunt for something of true value. The allegories provide a narrative tested by time; 30 years, in fact, as this is the special 30th Anniversary Edition! Filled with engaging characters fighting their own battles of inadequacy, mistakes and pain, Tales of the Kingdom is a “can’t put it down” wonder.
The authors, David and Karen Mains have been teaching about The Kingdom for more than 50 years. Their work with Mainstay Ministries equips pastors around the globe to bring creative solutions to ministry. Written for children and the child in all of us, the Kingdom Tales Trilogy books are Gold-medallion award-winners.
Even if you are not a fan of parables, you will be drawn into the narrative of Tales of the Kingdom. Scarboy escapes Enchanted City with Little Brother in a daring flee for their lives. In Great Park, they meet Princess Amanda, Mercie, Caretaker and others seeking restoration of The Kingdom.
The Orphan Keeper’s Assistant “discovered that the Kingdom was for outcasts, and one must become an outcast in order to follow the King.”
The Apprentice Juggler teaches us that those who march to the beat of a different (God-given) drum “will find a place in the Kingdom.”
“The first rule of Great Park: A Kingdom is Anyplace Where the King Rules!”
A girl named Dirty found out “the subjects of the King are nothing more than ugly beggars,” but all are brought to the Kingdom.
The boy named Hero learned, “there is a kingdom within that must first be conquered before one becomes brave enough to challenge the world without.”
