Mary’s Story

Mary’s Story tells about the remarkable early years and life of Jesus as only a mother can tell. Growing up, Jesus had the best two men in all of Galilee as His earthly mentors. Joseph, His father, taught Him in the ways of the carpenter and about life and always going the extra mile for others. Joseph built Jesus His own set of carpenter tools, and Mary loved to watch as Joseph would take Jesus’s tiny little hand in his to guide Him and help Him to learn to cut straight true lines. Ramir, Joseph’s brother, taught Jesus in the ways of the shepherd, as well as to appreciate all of God’s creations. Ramir helped Jesus acquire His own little flock of sheep, beginning with Beelah, His first lamb and the bell sheep of His flock. Eventually, Narly, Shekel, Jasper, and Jasmine were added to Jesus’s flock.

Mary tells of many childhood adventures of Jesus such as:

When Jasmine wandered from the flock into the wilderness, Jesus had to leave the flock

to go and rescue Jasmine from the clutches of a hungry lion.

When Jesus saw a lone Roman soldier attacked by Zealots intending to kill him, Jesus and Beelah had to intervene.

When Joseph and Jesus were chosen to build a tower for a Roman official after another carpenter had failed, they built it in the allotted time and for less money than expected to the surprise and shock of the official.

On the day Jesus, the Good Shepherd was crucified, every sheep in all the land stood tall and erect, silently facing Golgotha. The sheep knew who he was. The Roman general knew who he was. His disciples knew, and one day, the whole world would know that He is Jesus Christ, the son of God.
