Amon’s Mission: A Family Story about Spreading the Good News

“Jesus has ascended, Saul has seen the light, and the Church is now well organized in Jerusalem. So now sixteen-year-old Amon-son of Jotham and Tabitha-has a mission to get on with his own life. But every time he thinks he’s getting close, one of the apostles needs help with something, some Roman decides to stir up trouble, or tragedy strikes his own family. It’s terribly frustrating and makes it seem as if Amon will never have a normal life. What he doesn’t realize is . . . he’s an eyewitness to some of the most exciting times in the life of the young church. Like most Christians today -who read the New Testament and don’t really understand the meaning behind all the events it describes- Amon doesn’t understand that God has a reason for everything and ultimately uses circumstances as blessings. Perfect for family read-alongs or individual enjoyment at any time of year, this story covers the events in Acts 8-12”-
