The biblical teaching that Jesus was the Suffering Servant who carried the sins of His people when He went to the cross is vividly brought home to children in The Donkey Who Carried a King, the latest children's book from respected theologian, author, and educator Dr. R.C. Sproul. Davey was a young donkey who was bored and unhappy because he was never given anything to do. Then one day, some strangers came to the gateâ??and Davey's master picked him for a very special task. Davey carried the King, Jesus, into Jerusalem. A few days later, Davey saw some angry people making the King carry a heavy beam of wood. Davey could not understand itâ??until another donkey helped him see that the King was being a Servant on behalf of His people. The Donkey Who Carried a King offers a unique perspective on the events of Jesus' Passion Week and calls all believers, both young and old, to follow in the footsteps of the Suffering Servant for the glory of God. Jesus was willing to leave the glories of heaven to suffer and die in this world on our behalf, so we should serve Him with all our hearts. Dr. R.C. Sproul (1939-2017) was founder of Ligonier Ministries, an international Christian discipleship organization located near Orlando, Fla. He was also founding pastor of Saint Andrew's Chapel in Sanford, Fla., first president of Reformation Bible College, and executive editor of Tabletalk magazine. His radio program, Renewing Your Mind, is still broadcast daily on hundreds of radio stations around the world and can also be heard online. Dr. Sproul contributed dozens of articles to national evangelical publications, spoke at conferences, churches, colleges, and seminaries around the world, and wrote more than one hundred books, including The Holiness of God, Chosen by God, and Everyone's a Theologian. He also served as general editor of the Reformation Study… (meer)

Davey was a young donkey who was bored and unhappy because he was never given anything to do. Then one day, some strangers came to the gate―and Davey’s master picked him for a very special task. Davey carried the King, Jesus, into Jerusalem. A few days later, Davey saw some angry people making the King carry a heavy beam of wood. Davey could not understand it―until another donkey helped him see that the King was being a Servant on behalf of His people.

I have discovered that Dr. Sproul's books for children and adults really bless not only myself but my kids. He has a gift to teach with such wisdom and grace. I want to make it my goal in the coming years to read many more books of his to them. My children are beginning to really like him.
This is a great book to read for Easter. Good discussion questions in the back as well. Recommend for families!

There are many kid’s books out there that share Biblical stories, but The Donkey Who Carried a King by R.C. Sproul is a special work.

Reilly, a young boy, feels left out and his Grandfather decide to tell him the story of Davey the donkey. Davey is chosen to carry Jesus during his triumphant entry. After the event Davey meets up with Barnabas, another donkey, who lets Davey know that under no uncertain terms does he get out of work just because he carried a king. Davey isn’t happy about it but he complies.

As Davey is doing his work he sees Jesus, the King, carrying the cross on the way to Calvary. Davey is perplexed and stressed because of what he sees. Davey asks Barnabas why this is happening because it doesn’t seem fair. Barnabas explains to Davey that this day was coming all along. He knew about it because he too had carried Jesus with his mother Mary.

After the story finishes, Grandpa explains to Reilly that sometimes we have to do things or endure things that are not pleasant for us just like Jesus did for us.

This charming story helps explain to kids the suffering Jesus endured for us after being hailed as king just a week prior. The book includes questions for parents to work through with their kids to gain a better understanding of the concepts and truths presented in the book.

With a captivating story, amazing illustrations, and great resources for parents to train their children, I give The Donkey Who Carried a King five stars.
