When earthly evils took Tobias' parents he was fortunate to have others ready, willing, able and in need of a child in their life. This is a story of God's unfolding providence.\nHere is a powerfully-written, spiritually insightful work by Christian author David Willson. When earthly evils took Tobias' parents he was fortunate to have others ready, willing and able -- and in need of a child in their life. Saddened why Tobias came to them, his Aunt and Uncle would be surprised at what kind of child they would receive despite his history. Even Tobias is not aware of his Christian foundation in the early years as he leads his friends and acquaintances on a Christian path through his modeling and unique personality. Read and watch to see what Tobias accomplishes during the school years, and yes, even when evil enters his life. Please read and experience the ripple effect of a Christian life well-lived regardless of the challenges faced, especially in the American school system of not long ago and then ask, why not today?
