Missionary Stories with the Millers by Mildred A. Martin

Of course, everyone makes mistakes, and the stories are very good at showing an attitude of repentance and forgiveness by each of the characters.Įven though the books come from a very conservative Amish-Mennonite perspective, I’ve found them to be very useful in teaching topics like trusting God, manners, friendship, obedience, respect, forgiveness, self-sacrifice and much, much more! Many of the stories are full of some excitement, too, which keeps the attention of my boys. Older siblings, for the most part, are also characterized as good role models for their younger brothers and sisters.

Mom and Dad Miller are very good examples of parents who teach, rebuke, discipline and mold their children in a loving and kind manner. A Bible verse is tied into each story and is used to help convey the moral message. And so it does.Įach book, besides Missionary Stories with the Millers, is filled with short stories about the fictional Miller family and the Biblical lessons they learn through everyday occurrences. After gobbling up each and every story several times, we realized that the entire set would eventually sit on our bookshelf.

We started our journey with the Miller books by reading Storytime with the Millers. From the time my children were preschoolers, and even now, we have enjoyed the Miller Stories by Mildred A.
