Dear Reader

We pray that this fifth issue will bless and encourage you in serving the King. We desire to only print that which He would be pleased with. “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.”* (Colossians 3:17) The Lord is faithful and of good mercy to us. May He be glorified!

For any of you who are new to the paper, Treasures of the Kingdom is designed for boys and girls ages five to ten. Soon to be in print, Lord willing, will be a magazine, Foundation Truth, for older readers (teenagers and up).

We are a Bible-believing family that belongs to the church God built, as described in the New Testament. Our family includes Rick and Krista Erickson and their five children: Laura (19), Skye (18), Joel (17), Kara (15), and Amanda (6). We live on a small acreage and are home educated. The publishing of Treasures of the Kingdom is mainly done by Laura and Joel, with help from others, including contributions from our friends, the Spinks family, and guidance by our parents.

In the King’s service,
The Editors
