What happens when a little jealousy grows into something much bigger?
In “Squirrelled War I,” gifted young author Joshua Thomsen takes a clever, humorous, and surprisingly profound approach to one of the deepest problems of human nature: jealousy & hatred.
Beneath the playful antics is an invitation to ask some
serious questions:
What happens when we let jealousy take control of us?
Were we made for joyful relationship with one another—and what happens to those relationships when sin gets in the way?
How does our sin affect the people around us, and even the world we’ve been given to care for?
Are we ruling over our sinful desires, or are they beginning to rule over us?
God’s warning to Cain in Genesis 4:6–7 speaks directly to this struggle: sin is crouching at the door, but we are called to rule over it.
But “Squirrelled War I” makes that profound truth surprisingly fun to explore. It may make you laugh—but it may also make you stop and think. Sometimes even the funniest stories have something serious to say.
