Everyday life in Galilee is about to change. Eight-year-old Sammy is watching a man named Jesus do the impossible — and he’s inviting your family to come watch too.
Meet Sammy
He is eight years old, has a mop of dark curly hair, and sees the world with bright, curious eyes. But everyday life in Galilee is about to change, because Sammy is watching a man named Jesus do the impossible.
From a boy’s lunch that feeds thousands to a storm silenced by a whisper, Sammy witnesses twelve incredible miracles firsthand. In Bible Adventures with Sammy, the Gospels come alive through the perspective of a child just like yours — inviting young readers to walk dusty roads, fish in the sea, and stand in awe of the Savior.
Twelve Miracles, One Galilean Boy
Each chapter drops Sammy into a different corner of Galilee — a hillside, a wedding, a fishing boat, a sickbed — right as wonder breaks in.
Sammy sneaks near the wedding jars just as they stop holding water and start holding wine.
A boy's lunch basket becomes the biggest picnic Galilee has ever seen — and Sammy is there to hand it over.
A figure on the waves at night. Sammy's heart pounds in the boat before anyone dares to speak.
The sky turns black, the boat tips — and then, silence, at a single whispered word.
Empty nets all night. Sammy watches them come up so full the boats nearly sink.
Sammy stands close enough to see the moment a man's eyes open to color and light for the first time.
Everyone else steps back. Jesus steps forward — and Sammy learns what it means to be unafraid to touch.
No touch, no visit — just a word spoken from far away, and a servant rises well.
A house full of grief turns to astonished joy as Sammy watches a little girl open her eyes.
An impossible errand — pay a tax with no money — solved by the strangest catch of the day.
Ten men are healed on the road. Sammy notices only one turns back to say thank you.
In the darkest, most frightening night of all, Sammy sees Jesus still choose to heal.
