The Story of The Little Pot Continues.

Children need help understanding that the fruit they bear is something God grows in them to give to others. We can wrongly think that we possess things like love, joy, or patience instead of it being something we give to others. In this sequel to “The Little Pot,” the potter forms a new vessel called Tea Pot. As pride and selfishness grow instead of the fruit of the Spirit, Tea Pot and Little Pot discover that the only way to fulfill their creator’s purpose is to give of themselves willingly. Children learn God’s forgiveness and unconditional love through this allegory as the potter prunes Little Pot’s dead leaves and washes Tea Pot clean. The pots become even more eager to bear fruit and serve others as their creator intended.

When selfishness grows instead of the fruit of the Spirit.
