Anika loved stories. And the stories she loved most
were the ones her great-auntie Anna told her.
Stories about a God who created a good and beautiful world.
And stories about their people, whom God chose to be His own.
In the past, their people trusted God, and they
defeated giants, lions, and kings. But their people also
often forgot to trust God and suffered through hard
times, slavery, and exile. Yet God always promised
to rescue them if they turned to Him again.
These stories gave Anika hope . . . because their
people were waiting to be saved by the Deliverer
whom God promised would end their suffering.
