The Coin in the Fish

When Peter is asked whether Jesus pays the temple tax, Jesus sends him to the lake with a surprising instruction: cast a hook, open the first fish you catch, and find the exact coin needed inside its mouth. Young readers follow Peter from worry to wonder and learn that Jesus provides — sometimes in the most surprising way. A gentle story about trusting God's care for everyday needs, drawn from Matthew 17.
