Mr. McFarland told them a 500-year-old story that his grandfather had told him about Master Peter, a well known barber in his village. One day, a famous customer walks into his shop. It is Martin Luther, the outlawed Reformer. The Emperor of the land had promised a large reward for anyone who could capture Luther dead or alive. Peter could use his razor to cut Luther’s throat and claim the reward which would make him very rich. However, Luther is Peter’s hero because of his great courage, and the barber would never betray him. Suddenly, Master Peter has an idea. He asks Luther if he could help him learn how to pray better. How will Luther react to this request? What will he say or do in response?
Author R. C. Sproul, whose son R. C. Sproul Jr. is a homeschooling father and wrote When You Rise Up: A Covenantal Approach to Homeschooling, is the founder of Ligonier Ministries and minister with Saint Andrew’s Chapel in Sanford, FL. He bases his imaginative tale, which is beautifully illustrated with paintings by T. Lively Fluharty, on a true story. I highly recommend this book for two reasons. First, it shows young people the importance of great religious leaders like Martin Luther to our Western Culture. Second, it emphasizes the need for parents to teach their children how to pray. Not everyone may go about it exactly as Luther suggested, but if we want our children to have a personal relationship with their heavenly Father, it is important that they learn how to pray in a way that pleases Him. Other children’s books by Sproul include The Prince’s Poison Cup and The Lightlings. ( )
