Have you ever had to get ready for a very important guest?
Before Jesus started His amazing journey of miracles, someone had to tell the world He was coming. In John the Baptist: The Brave Messenger, children will meet one of the most unique and courageous heroes in the whole Bible!
A Wild Adventure in the Wilderness! John wasn’t a typical hero. He lived in the desert, wore clothes made of camel hair, and even ate locusts and wild honey! But John had a job that was even bigger than his appetite. He was the "Voice in the Wilderness," sent to tell everyone to turn their hearts back to God and get ready for the greatest King of all time.
