A Tale of Patience, Paws, and God's Perfect Timing

Join Mrs. Appleby and her mischievous kitten, Whiskers, in the beautiful town of MeadowBrook for a heartwarming lesson on faith and patience.

Whiskers the kitten is good at many things, chasing butterflies, napping in sunbeams, and looking adorable. But there is one thing Whiskers is not good at and that is waiting.

When Mrs. Appleby plants a tiny, dry brown seed in the garden, Whiskers can't understand why nothing happens right away. He stares, he sniffs, and he even tries to dig it back up! Through rain, sun, and quiet days, Mrs. Appleby teaches her furry friend that the most beautiful things in God's creation take time to grow.

Inspired by the Parable of the Sower (Luke 8:15), The Secret of the Hidden Seed helps children understand that just because we can't see God working, doesn't mean He isn't there.
