Isaiah Johnson and the Big Game

Join the Johnson family as they learn important faith lessons with the loving guidance of Dad! This sweet and thoughtful picture book features the eldest, Isaiah, and explores how we all need forgiveness--even parents.

Isaiah Johnson's baseball team has made it to the championships, and he's up to bat! Most of the Johnson family is in the stands cheering him on . . . but someone is missing: Isaiah's dad.

When Dad finally shows up, he apologizes for his absence and asks for Isaiah's forgiveness. But Isaiah is still hurt and isn't sure if he can forgive. 

As a dad who's made plenty of mistakes himself, Esau McCaulley has crafted a biblically informed story that offers plenty of avenues for discussion on the power of forgiveness.
