Nugget and the Refiner
“Why are bad things always happening to me?” Nugget and the Refiner is a parable about how a loving God uses hard times in the lives of His children to remove their sin and mold them into the image of Jesus. It is not intended to illustrate how we are saved, but rather how God often works in the lives of those who have been saved. Nugget is a rock. Not a gem but an ugly hunk of ore buried in the ooze and he’s comfortable there. That is, until one day when a traveler wrenches him from the ground and takes him on the most uncomfortable, but surprising, journey of his life.

“Kerry Tittle and her family were taken through the crucible led and loved every step of the way by God. She brings that experience to this warm tale of Nugget. Plucked from the mud, Nugget goes through the fire and the flame to become exactly what God wanted him to be. This book helps us all, children and parents, to learn anew and again to trust the sovereign, loving, gentle, and kind hand of the Refiner.” Stephen J. Nichols, president of Reformation Bible College, and chief academic officer at Ligonier Ministries
