A Father Attests To Sheep & Goat's Value

"My daughter has hundreds of books she can choose from, but there are two that are her favorites.  One is a pocket sized Bible, and the other is the Sheep & Goat book.  Every time I read her the Sheep & Goat book I get chills as the story is moving and I know God is working through this book," writes Will Turner, a young father and friend of GIFT.

Kids Will Enjoy Learning Life's Most Important Lessons

Sheep & Goat is a children's ministry initiative -- with exciting characters, a children's book and merchandise -- that encourages all of us to love others as Christ loves us.  It's a vital message for all eternity.  And proceeds fund global relief.
 
This fun-filled, 48-page, illustrated book is based on the Parable of the Sheep and Goats (Matthew 25: 31-46) in which Jesus says we need to show others His love and not live selfishly.  Click on the book above and read the published book and encourage selfless living.

In this all-important Parable, Jesus says He's coming back, and that He'll separate us as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats -- based on whether we really loved Him by loving others.  All His sheep will advance into God's kingdom for eternity.

"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory.  All the nations will be gathered before him, and He will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.  Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in. I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'" Mt 25:31-36

The Sheep represent those who show love to those who are hungry, sick, naked, or in prison.  The Goats are those who are indifferent to the plight of others.  So, we must live lovingly like Sheep; not selfishly like Goat.

Our book, Sheep & Goat Go To The Ice Cream Parlor conveys this vital message in a very fun way by contrasting Sheep's tremendous compassion for others with Goat's self-absorbed lifestyle.

We place Sheep & Goat in real-world situations that repeatedly teach children to choose the path of love.

Christians can use this book and related merchandise to encourage their young children to live lovingly, as Jesus instructed. 

The book encourages us not to conform to this world, but rather to "Be Transformed," so we can show the love of Christ. 

All Christians should find this story an enjoyable reflection on this essential spiritual truth and a reminder to live compassionate lives.

GIFT also has a line of Sheep & Goat merchandise -- including tee shirts, cups and more -- to encourage children to love others on a daily basis. 

Now you can order the Sheep & Goat Children's book and merchandise through our GIFT Shop.
