Tested Faith: Jesus’ Parables, Pressure, and The Separation of True Believers

What happens when following Jesus becomes difficult?

Tested Faith is a Scripture-centered Christian book for ages 9–13 that helps young believers understand why faith is tested—and why endurance matters more than a strong beginning.

Using Jesus’ own teachings and parables, especially the Parable of the Sower, this book explains how faith is tested by pressure, persecution, offense, comfort, and false peace. Jesus warned that some hear God’s Word with joy but fall away when tribulation arises, while others last longer but slowly become unfruitful as the cares of the world and the desire for acceptance take over.

Through clear teaching and full Bible passages (KJV), Tested Faith helps children learn how to:

• Understand why faith is tested.
• Recognize false expectations of peace and safety
• Remain faithful under pressure and opposition.
• Choose obedience over comfort and popularity
• Endure in God’s Word to the end.

Designed for families, homeschoolers, and young believers, this book encourages children to grow strong through Scripture, prayer, and daily obedience—preparing them to stand firm when following Jesus becomes costly.

Tested Faith is book three in the ordered series Bible Prophecy, the Spiritual War & How Jesus Told Us to Overcome, a discipleship-focused series that grows deeper with each volume, guiding young believers to discern truth, endure faithfully, and overcome through Christ.
