God’s Very Good Plan

A sweet Christmas tale about trusting God, even when things aren't going your way. "I don't think God ever likes it when we're hurting," said Mama Badger. "But He's always with us and we can always trust Him with our feelings. And sometimes when we're hurting or weak, God uses us in especially mighty ways!"

Little Badger can't wait to enter the annual snow sculpture contest. He practices his sculptures every day and is determined to win a prize. But when an accident occurs and his plans are dashed, he's sad, angry, and confused. Even Christmas doesn't feel so exciting. Why would God let such a thing happen, and why doesn't He just fix everything when you ask Him to? Mama Badger encourages Little Badger to share his feelings with God and to trust that He is good and has a good plan. In the end, Little Badger gets the chance to be a hero in a way he never would have guessed.

The latest in the beloved Forest of Faith series, this is a delightful Christmas tale about trusting God with your feelings and having faith that He is good all the time, even when things are hard. Whether you're facing injury, illness, grief, or disappointment, this story of hope and resilience will lift your spirits this Christmas season.
