1. Stewart And His
Marbles
By Paul Bass and Tim Craig

2. This is Stewart.
Stewart liked
marbles. He liked
them so much...

3. He wouldn’t let
anyone else get
near them.

4. Not at all.

5. Every time he got new marbles...
He buried
them in the
backyard.

6. Before you know it,
his yard was full of
holes, full of bags...

7. He had so many bags full of marbles. He could have shared...

8. with every child in the neighborhood.

9. One day a gopher
from the
backyard named
Koko spoke to
Stewart

10. Because Stewart
had no real friends.
Koko read to him a
Bible story about a
man named Judas.

11. And how Judas
traded his
friend to some
very bad men
for a bag full
of coins.

13. At this Stewart reacted.
Hey, that’s no way to be a friend! Friends don’t trade friends
for bags full of stuff!

14. Koko answered,
“Some do, if they
like stuff more
than people.

15. Stewart gulped.

16. “Gulp!”

17. It’s like keeping all those marbles sort of made Stewart lose his marbles, if
you know what I mean.

18. Stewart did not
want to be like
that guy named
Judas. Stewart
decided to share
his marbles.

19. Don’t worry
Koko.

20. Even though he now has real friends, he still
finds time for a Bible reading rodent.

21. And he is so
generous that
people call him...

23. Are you a Good
Stewart?

24. Who is Stewart?
Stewart is a man who lost his priorities.
Stewart is a man who got a lot carried
away.
He’s the one who used to cling to his…
Not just riches, his hobby, his shell
collection, his TV shows, his knowledge,
his disease, car, theology, trips to the
Louvre, whatever.
We can’t all be Stewart, but we can all
be good Stewart.
Good thing Stewart listens to
gophers who come bearing Bibles.
Balaam had an ass.
Nebuchadnezzar gained a clear mind
only after he ate grass like a goat
for 7 years.
When you start moving in the wrong
direction, who calls you back?
Do you have a good friend? Do you
have a loving parent?
Who is your Bible gopher?

25. If you don’t have a person to speak
wisdom into your life, pray for one.
A man named Yacob (known as James
to many) once said, “If any of you lacks
wisdom, let him (or her) ask God, who
gives to all generously… and it will be
given to him.”
As He gives to us, we should give to
each other. For every good thing we
have, we should share with others. We
will bring happiness to others, and joy
will take root and live in our hearts.
Ask yourself, “Is there one thing that I
like more than people?”
What is it?
Money?
Time?
Fancy Stuff?
Toys?
The last scoop of ice cream in the
box?
Your comic book collection?
Take a moment and make a plan to
share with someone in need..

26. Go thou and be a
good Stewart.
