The book begins in the Garden of Eden with the fall of humanity into sin, and weaves its way through the Old Testament scriptures and stories into the New Testament. |
| As readers explore four Old Testament stories to find the “scarlet thread,” they are introduced to God‛s wonderful plan of redemption unfolding through the ages and fulfilling His promise in Genesis 3:15 to bring the Savior, Jesus Christ, who will destroy the power of sin and death. |
| “I wrote this book to help children and youth see the Bible as one continuous story of God’s love for man and His faithfulness to His Word,” Dorla Schlitt remembers. “In the book, the ‘scarlet thread’ is a symbol of the temporary provision God made for His Old Testament covenant people, which led to the fulfillment of the promise in the New Testament with the coming of the Savior.” Dorla and John Schlitt couldn’t be more excited about the release of Dorla’s new book. “I am so proud of Dorla!” says John Schlitt. “She is in her element when she is teaching or writing.
