Six-year old Alden and His Granna are driving home from a weekend trip. The boy is tired of playing I Spy and ready to get back home to his family. Granna remembers a game she used to play with her son when he was small and offers to teach it to her grandson. As she explains the rules, he rejects the idea that everything goes back to God's creation. He quickly finds out through this fun game that God provided everything we need when He created the Earth for us and that is why we need to be thankful for everything. After all, nothing has been added to the Earth since it was created except for rain and a few meteor rocks. The sweet ending will bring a happy tear to any person who loves a child. Activity page included. Helpful tips are provided for adults to help children continue playing the game.

After twenty-five years as an educator, I've added author to my resume. But my job as grandmother of my give grands is the absolute best.

I guess when you're a teacher, you're always a teacher. So when I'm with my grands, I enjoy making things fun by turning them into games. I've been thinking about the concepts from The Back to God Game for many years, but it wasn't until I played the game with my grandson that his words brought life to the idea.

Most of what happens in the story and the dialogue is true and what actually happened in the car, but on several occasions.

We see the goodness of God in nature, but not necessarily in the inanimate things on our Earth. We thank God for the beautiful flowers, trees, animals and sunsets. We don't think about how the other things we have come from God. Just imagine how different life would be if only one natural resource was never created or runs out!

Thank you for joining me, and my grands, on this new journey. I pray this story will help lead children and adults closer to God.
