Marcia Carole Teaching The Story Of The Prodigal Son Story In Cambodia
One of the “tools” in my art suitcase is usually an art book or two, that I have made, to use to tell children, in oral learning cultures, different Bible stories. After sharing God’s heart, His character or one of His amazing attributes, my team and I ask the children to make art in response to the Bible story.

Joyous children from a slum in India after hearing the Bible story and making the art.
Making the art helps the children to internalize the story, and it may be the only art they will have in their home. I often also give the children a copy of one page from my collaged art book because when I was serving in Ethiopia and teaching Bible stories, one child shared with me, “I will never forget this story because you shared this card with me.”
Art card given to each child who heard the story of Noah when I was serving in Haiti.
It is always a joy to spend time with children all over the world, and to teach them the Bible truths using art!
