The Sword -Magnus and the Mystery of Romans by Marty Machowski illustrated by Flavia Sorrentino**

 Through three different stories, parents and their children can study the book of Romans together. The story opens with a brother & sister discovering a sword and an ancient book in an off-limit trunk in the family home. With their father, they read the story of Magnus and his encounter with Paul, the writer of Romans. Each chapter begins with the fictional story about Magnus & his eventual conversion to Christ. Then Mr. Machowski provides specific passages (chronological) from Romans to read and pages with further explanations and analogies. Each chapter also includes a section connectiong the Old Testament with the New Testament.

Currently, the pastor at my church his preaching through Romans. If I had younger children, this book would be a perfect choice to study Romans as a family.

World magazine selected as their Children's Book of the Year (2025).

**Highly, highly recommend.
