My Book of Bible Stories - Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (1978) | Illustrated Bible Stories for Kids & Families | Perfect for Sunday School, Homeschooling & Christian Education

I always thought my mother bought us this Bible. I later found out the Jehovah Witnesses left this Bible! I laughed so hard when I found out because I had been telling the story wrong!I’m not a Jehovah Witness, but this Bible helped me have a love for God at such a young age. My mother didn’t carry us to church. She was a drug dealer when we were younger, and she sold beer. We lived in the projects called Bowen Homes in Atlanta. However, she did take time to teach us to pray. Sometimes she would let the Jehovah Witnesses come into our apartment when they caught her right! Anyway, today I am a minister of the gospel. My mother never graduated high school. God led me back to school after I answered my call into the ministry! I graduated Spelman College and Emory Candler School of Theology with a Master of Divinity. I am working on my Doctorate in Ministry at Jakes Divinity School powered by George Fox, but right at the end I had financial difficulties. So my dissertation is finished, but I am waiting on God to bless me financially to pay my school off. My youngest son has also answered his call into the ministry. He is currently attending Morehouse. What am I saying? All things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose. God will use anyone to accomplish His mission. I make short films( I have longer films but God told me to do short films to show my work). My channel on YouTube is SHAYFILMS! I came from the hood, so I write gritty Christian movies! It is what I am called to do! Anyway, God used Jehovah Witnesses to stir up my love for His word, and I am grateful to them! Today, I read this Bible with my grandchildren! I was so happy to find one!
