Kids’ Bible Stories

De: Ayokunle Mathew Akinbi

Narrado por: Bryan Haddock

In "The King and the Forgotten Prince," a heartwarming story of friendship and unexpected kindness unfolds for young listeners.

Mephibosheth, a young prince left crippled after a terrible accident, lives a quiet and forgotten life far from the royal palace. He feels alone and afraid, believing his fate is sealed by his past. But King David, remembering a promise made to his best friend Jonathan, sets out on a journey to find the prince.

This beautifully illustrated book delves into the deep themes of loyalty, compassion, and the power of God's grace. Children will be captivated by the vivid descriptions of King David's search, Mephibosheth's fear and surprise, and the incredible moment they meet. The story highlights how true kindness can overcome fear and loneliness, and how a king's promise can change a life forever. It's a wonderful reminder that everyone, no matter their circumstances, is worthy of love and a place at the King's table.

Kindness through the heart of David

I enjoyed the story of Mephibosheth and the kindness portrayed in this story. I always admired that David had a caring heart for Mephiboseheth, but the story brought out how the kindness spread to others. A character trait that should be recognized more today. I also like that this author adds a scripture verse at the end of each chapter, with note to friendship and love for one another. The author also holds the interest of the readers with the story line.

The voice of the reader has an excellent voice that is clear, concise and engaging. So thankful Bible stories are available on audible. Families can gain a lot from hearing these excellent stories.

The narrator did a great job at bringing this story to life!

I love this story! This version is a great adaptation for children. Amazing imagery! The narrator did a fantastic job telling the story in a way that left me wanting to hear more!
