A Molehill is a MountainForeword |
| "Remove not the ancient landmark ..." Proverbs 23:10 |
| The bible has and remains the best source on Christian' living. In it we learn that when we honor God and keep his commandments he guides and protects us from harm. A Molehill Is a Mountain is a modern day story of the travails that we are likely to face when we turn away from God's Word and teachings and promote the rigors of work and career over family. |
| In this story, Thais' dad repeatedly breaks commitments to his son. Only when faced with the possibilities of losing him, does he repent by praying to God and lamenting his neglect of family, church worship and Bible study. Although Thais' dad is blessed with a new chance to live life in a way more harmonious with God's teachings, many do not heed the warning and ultimately lose the love of family for the material rewards of success. |
| Although this book serves as a cautionary tale of what can likely happen when we neglect family responsibilities, in a larger sense it is a descriptive tale of the root causes of family decay and breakdown. In a larger sense, it is also the story of how we risk losing our children to the mean and hostile values of the streets when we remove ancient landmarks that serve as guidance for Christian living for future generations. |
| As parents read this book to their children, it should serve as a valuable wake-up call to set aside quality time with their children and to give due honor to God. Only then, will we be able to lift our communities out of the dust and rebuild them on a rock with a firm and lasting foundation. Although written for children, this book should be required reading for all parents. |
