Shepherd Stories Volume 5 includes tales of a hard-working insect who devotes her life to serving her family, a respected leader successfully guides others for hundreds of miles by using encouragement, and an unlikely animal alliance saves a family from drowning. Paired with each tale is a Bible story that tells of a similar experience: a gifted teacher works for free to share the Good News, encouraging words help to complete a massive building project in record time, and a smart, courageous woman saves the lives of two men in danger.
