The Little Donkey That Carried a King

The biblical teaching about Jesus as the Suffering Servant who bore the sins of His people to the cross is presented very clearly to boys and girls in The Donkey Who Carried a King, the newest children's book by respected theologian, author, and educator R.C. Sproul.

Memo was a young donkey, bored and unhappy because no one ever gave him a task to do. One day, some strangers came to the door and his master chose him for a very special task. Memo carried the King, Jesus, and took him to Jerusalem. Days later, Memo saw some very angry people making the King carry a heavy wooden beam. Memo couldn't understand it, until another donkey helped him understand that the King was a Servant to His people. The Donkey Who Carried a King offers a unique perspective on the events of Jesus' Passion Week and calls all believers, adults and children, to follow in the footsteps of the Suffering Servant for the glory of God. Jesus was willing to leave the glories of heaven to suffer and die in this world for us, so we should serve Him with all our heart.
