'Ned Franks, or The Christian's Panoply' Summary
Ned Franks, a one-armed Christian sailor, returns to his sister's home after several years away at sea. She and her son are not Christians, and are cold toward him, viewing him as a hindrance and expense. By his upright, kind behavior and willingness to work, he soon begins supporting himself and becomes well-liked in the community, especially by the children.Ned helps his nephew, Billy, to overcome his fear of the dark by teaching him about the power of God. He also helps a servant girl, Mary, to break her habit of dishonesty by showing her the importance of honesty and integrity.The design of this story is unique, as each chapter demonstrates a new fruit of the Spirit as described in Galatians 5:22-23. Excellent for children and adults of all ages.Book Details
