Lesson 049 - “It Wasn’t ‘Love at First Sight’!”

Children love stories. Movies, too, wield an underestimated influence in the lives of young people. No matter what our age, drama wins our attention. Could there be a God-given reason? What if we, as God's children, are meant to be real live participants in the most dramatic story ever told?
