Overview

The Jordan River is too deep, too wide, and rushing too fast, and an entire nation is standing on its banks with no bridge in sight. Families pitch their tents within earshot of the roaring water, watching priests lift a golden chest that is meant to lead the way. Children crane their necks to see what will happen when the first sandaled feet step off the shore. This is the moment when an ordinary river becomes the stage for something no one will ever forget. Walk with them into the dry riverbed, where mud turns to firm ground and the water pulls back far away. See the priests stand steady in the middle while tribe after tribe crosses from one side to the other. Feel the mix of fear and amazement as grandparents, little ones, and animals all make the journey safely. By the time the last cart rattles past the ark, the people know they have just seen a doorway open into a new life. On the other side, twelve tired men hoist twelve heavy stones onto their shoulders and carry them to the first camp in the new land. Those plain rocks become a special marker, ready for curious children who will someday point and ask, ""What do these stones mean?"" This story invites families to imagine the spray of the river, the weight of the stones, and the thrill of seeing a way made where none existed. It is written to be read aloud, talked over, and remembered whenever you need a reminder that impossible paths can open.
