Why Do We Tell Bible and Missionary Stories?

By Mary Vee






Happy New Year!!






We celebrate the start of a fifth year of this blog.

Sharing Bible stories on Wednesdays and Saturdays, 
Missionary stories on Mondays

These stories are told in the first person to help take you back in time to the event.

See the sites
Smell the scents
Taste the food
Touch the objects
Hear the sounds

The purpose of this blog is:

to help you experience these very real events 
to help you understand in maybe a small measure why God included this important event in His word.
to help you want to learn more and grow closer to God

For this reason you will not see advertisement on this page. 

This blog is all about God, His word, and how its importance in our lives.

In five years we have:

Walked from creation to Elisha's life events 
Walked with Gladys Aylward through her missionary journey in China
Walked a portion of J. Hudson Taylor's journey
Played Bible games (see tab at the top to find the games)
Discussed ways to keep safe (see tab at the top)



This year we will:

Continue Elisha's story
Continue and probably finish J. Hudson Taylor's journey.





May God bless you and your family in this new year. 

We look forward to your visits.

Celebrating! Three Years of Bible Stories

Celebrating Three Years 
of Bible/Missionary Stories




Stepping into the lives of those who lived long ago,
 yet have so much to share today.

Bible Stories Posted Wednesdays and Saturdays


What did Noah's sons pass the time while on the ark? Did they pull the tiger's tail, slide down bales of hay, or tickle the giraffe's throat? 
How did Abraham, an old man, rescue his nephew, Lot, from the five wicked kings? How did he gather an army so fast and win a battle two other kings lost? 
Did Jacob weep when he finally found Joseph not only alive but also a powerful man in Egypt? What was Jacob's side of the story? 
Why did Boaz redeem Ruth? She wasn't an Israelite. She came from Moab. Why did he let her gleam in his fields for free?

Come read their stories. 
Look at the labels in the right column to find a Bible story.


Is the Missionary life easy? 
No one believed Gladys Aylward could learn Chinese at age thirty. Why would a woman want to travel by herself across the land of Russia during a time of war? Who would take a hundred children over a mountain for a fifteen day journey to save their lives?  Read Gladys Aylward's exciting series.  Click on Gladys Aylward in the column to the right

Want to play a Bible Game?



Click on the Bible Games tab at the top. Games are sorted by type: mazes, word search, dot to dot, crossword puzzles, and etc. Have some fun.
