Bishop’s Shadow
$25.00
This is the story of a street boy who does the things
most destitute boys do. Tode lies and steals and cheats
as if without conscience, but beneath the crime and
grime is a human being capable of love.
The eyes of a child gazing into his own bring out
feelings that Tode has never felt before. Soon his selfabsorbed,
poverty-stricken existence explodes into a
fervent quest to help this child and his desperate sister.
From the day Tode meets the bishop, he is never the
same. No longer called Tode, but Theodore Bryan, he
tries to live up to his real name by following the example
of the one he admires. And that’s how a roguish street
boy becomes the bishop’s shadow.

Highly Recommend I loved this book. It was great. It wasn’t just about getting wealth. It was about serving the Lord.

Another Favorite Our family owns many Lamplighter books, and this is now one of my favorites. The story clearly dispels the myth of, “I will be able to serve Jesus better when…” Tode (Theo) exemplifies that we can serve the Lord warts and all (pardon the pun) wherever we are and whatever the circumstances. Opportunities abound if there is a desire to serve like the Bishop. What a charming book with a touching and inspiring message.
