The Peacemaker
By Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.
Abigail was a wise woman who stopped a fight before it started: when the rude rich man Nabal insulted David and David marched out with four hundred men, Abigail loaded donkeys with food, rode out alone, and spoke soft, brave words that saved lives. This retelling of 1 Samuel 25 follows her wise plan step by step, from thinking fast to kneeling in the road. Children learn Jesus' promise, 'Blessed are the peacemakers,' and five Abigail skills they can practice at home. Every chapter ends with a simple Do or Pray, so young readers can start making peace today.
