A superspy from Syria on a surprising secret mission.

An ancient mystery unlocked by a senator from Sudan.

A brave refugee from Jordan who makes history.

An Italian soldier whose world is turned upside down.

Discover these and other brilliant Bible stories from around the world to inspire you on your own adventure with God!

In ten action-packed stories, Whistlestop Tales tells how God uses people from all over the world in his global adventure. From Iraq to Italy, Sudan to Cyprus, each tale begins with a look at a modern-day country to help ground the characters in their original context and cultures. Together they highlight the great diversity of God’s people.

In their first children’s book, Krish and Miriam Kandiah combine Biblical and theological expertise with a generous helping of artistic license and fun, and, with help from illustrator Andy Gray, show how a wonderful array of characters are swept up in God’s plans for the whole world!
