The Cage

Little children ought to learn all of Christ's teachings. 1/6th of everything Jesus taught about was on judgment and hell. That is a huge amount of teaching on the subject! But how do we teach our children such a hard biblical idea appropriately?

In this tastefully illustrated work that is completely in rhyme, the Bible's teaching about hell is outlined in a very easy to understand manner. It concerns a young boy who we find is trapped in a cage called "Big Sin" and can't escape on his own. The cage is suspended by a chain that is rusting and could break at any moment. What will our young friend do? He sees others in cages as well, some who don't escape, and some who jump to safety as their prisons doors are opened by a mysterious key. Will our young friend get out? How will he escape THE CAGE?
