Book excerpt: Teddy's Time Machine How a cuddly bear looked into different times. Summary: Teddy, a soft and cuddly stuffed animal, finds a cool time machine and an odd old clock hidden in his owner's garage. Teddy, who is naturally brave and interested, accidentally turns on the machine and is swept away on a magical journey through different times in history, each with its own lessons and adventures. In Teddy's first adventure, he is with the huge dinosaurs of the Jurassic time. He meets a nice Triceratops and learns about the animals that lived on Earth before people did, millions of years ago. His next stop is ancient Egypt, where he helps a researcher figure out what's going on in a Pharaoh's tomb and learns about hieroglyphics and ancient ceremonies. Then Teddy is drawn to the Middle Ages, where he meets a brave knight and learns about how people lived and what they believed. In Renaissance Italy, he meets famous artists like Leonardo da Vinci and sees the intellectual and cultural rebirth that marked the time. This is the next part of his journey. When Teddy gets on a pirate ship, his trip takes a brave turn. He learns about seamanship, sailing, and the exciting life of pirates in the past. After that, he sees for himself how new ideas and tools changed society as he makes his way through the huge changes that the Industrial Revolution brought about. A lot of people moved into the American West during Teddy's time, and he learns about the struggles and ways of life of Native Americans and cowboys. Along with jazz, dance, and the growth of the arts during the Roaring Twenties, he gets a glimpse of a rich time. Watching the 1969 moon landing, Teddy learns about the space race and how it changed science and how countries work together, which is a turning point in history. As Teddy goes through the late 20th century, he learns about the digital revolution and the growth of computers. He sees how these big steps forward in technology have changed everyday life. Teddy goes on a trip to a future with lots of new technology where protecting the environment and being environmentally friendly are very important for keeping the world healthy. Teddy finally comes back to the present day when he understands how important his home is and what he has learned. Teddy is more than just a wooden bear. In the attic, where his story began, he is a wise old man who tells stories. To keep the other toys interested and teach them new things at the same time, he tells them about his travels. Through his books and toys, Teddy's trip through time teaches him more than just the history of the world. It also teaches him the importance of understanding and empathy, as well as how all times and cultures are linked. Each part of his journey focuses on a different time period, but they all come together to make a rich tapestry of our shared past. This shows that history is more than just a list of facts and dates; it's a living story that shapes us into the people we are today. Chapter 1: Teddy finds a clock. Teddy, a small stuffed animal bear with beautiful brown fur and button eyes, was feeling very daring one sunny afternoon. He chose to check out the attic of the house he shared with Emily, his owner. The attic was a strange place, full of old boxes, torn books, and riches that had been forgotten for a long time. It was the perfect place for a trip. As Teddy climbed the creaky wooden steps, the strange shapes made by the light from the attic window made everything look even more interesting. He looked through old picture albums, worn-out clothes, and broken tools as he walked around, making small dust clouds with his soft paws. Teddy was exploring the attic when he found a strange old clock buried in the dark. This clock wasn't like other ones. The wooden frame was big and fancy, with stars, planets, and golden hands carved into it. The dial on the front of it looked old and had Roman numbers and two shiny hands that ticked smoothly. Teddy thought it was interesting. He had never seen anything like it before. It looked like the clock was waiting for something or someone because it was beating very quickly. Teddy looked at the clock out of interest. It had more dials and buttons than a regular clock, he said. Teddy couldn't figure out what the symbol on a few of the small, round ones meant. It wasn't really a clock; it looked more like the control panel of a spaceship. He was most interested in the big red button in the middle of the clock. Ted took out his little stuffed paw and hit the red button, but he wasn't sure what he was doing. The clock's quiet ticking sound turned into a much louder buzzing sound as soon as he touched it. The hands on the clock started to move quickly and joined together to make a golden circle. As the clock light filled the attic, Teddy had a strange feeling, like the ground beneath him was going away. Without even having the chance to back away, he felt pushed forward through a tunnel of flashing lights and colors that were spinning. The attic and everything in it seemed to fall apart around him, leaving him floating in a huge, sparkling void. Teddy saw that the clock wasn't just a hidden gem in the attic; it was a time machine! He didn't know what to do or where it was leading him, though. There was a little bit of fear and excitement in his smooth heart. Where could he see these places? Could he ever go back to Emily's house? Swirling stopped all of a sudden. Teddy noticed he was in a totally different place as the bright light went out. He was not in the dark and dusty attic, but in a large, open area with a bright blue sky. Instead of boards made of wood, his paws were resting on lush, green grass. He heard birds singing and saw big trees in the distance. Todd was shocked and a little confused. By traveling through time, he got to a place he had never been before. As he took his first tentative steps into this new world, he thought about all the amazing things that were waiting for him there. How far away was he? What time period did he enter? Also, how was he going to get home? Teddy understood that the time machine had given him a one-of-a-kind chance to learn about the past and maybe even meet some of the people who lived there. Even though he was small, Teddy was ready for the new adventures and challenges that lay ahead of him. He was getting more and more excited about the stories he would tell Emily when he got back to the present. Teddy started an amazing trip through time. He would see amazing places, learn about history, and learn how important it is to be brave, curious, and open to new experiences. Chapter 2: The Stone Age Teddy, the stuffed bear, came into a world that was very different from the one he had been in during the Jurassic time. The air was warm and sticky, and the sun shone through a cover of big green leaves. He was surrounded by the sounds of a primitive jungle. Huge leaves rustled in the light breeze, and the strange calls of old birds filled the air. As Teddy slowly moved forward, his sensitive paws barely touching the wet, soft ground, he was amazed by how big everything was. He had never seen plants like the ones he saw. They were huge, with huge trunks and broad, big leaves that reached up to the sky and covered the forest in a thick mat of green. Buzzing bugs that Teddy had never seen in his modern world were drawn to the bright flowers that were in full bloom. Without a question, the dinosaurs were the most amazing thing to see in this bright, lush area. They were wonderful! Teddy was amazed as a group of huge Diplodocuses walked by. Their long necks reached up into the trees to eat from high branches. They moved everything in their way with their tails as they swung back and forth. As the ground shook a little under their weight, Teddy felt a strange mix of fear and excitement. At that point, Teddy made friends with a nice Triceratops. Teddy named this dinosaur Trudy because it had three sharp horns and a big bone flap on the back of its head, making it look like a small bus. Trudy seemed scary, but she really just wanted to know more about things. She grumbled nervously but nicely as she walked up to Teddy and quickly sniffed him with her huge, round nose. Teddy and Trudy quickly became close. Teddy was shown around Trudy's house by her, where she showed him other dinosaurs and lots of tasty plants. It was taught to Teddy that Trudy's horns and frills helped keep her safe from danger. As they went on their way, Teddy saw more big tracks in the mud that were all bigger than him. Trudy told them that they belonged to a Tyrannosaurus rex, which was one of the most dangerous dinosaurs of the Jurassic period. Teddy took a deep breath in and enjoyed Trudy's protected presence. Teddy loved seeing all the different dinosaurs on their trip. There were short velociraptors that moved quickly and had sharp claws. There were stegosaurs nearby, and their backs were covered with spikes and bone plates. As they flew through the sky, pterodactyls made deep shadows on the forest floor below their wings. Trudy taught Teddy about the plants and animals that lived during the Jurassic time. She talked about how the lush plants provided food for many kinds of dinosaurs, which were then fed by the warm weather and lots of rain. Teddy found out that some plants, like ferns, can send out a cloud of seeds when they are touched. Teddy was amazed at how everything in this very old world was linked to each other. The plants gave food to Trudy and other animals, which made the predators stronger. Every bug, no matter how small, did something useful, like pollinating plants or breaking down dead animals and leaves. Teddy learned and explored all day. At night, he sat by a calm lake and thought about what he had seen. The calm, clear lake showed off the bright blue sky and green surroundings. Ted saw dragonflies flying across the water and, off in the distance, dinosaurs drinking at the water's edge. As the sun went down and color changed the sky pink and orange in the sky, Teddy felt awe and thankfulness. The Jurassic Era was known for its huge animals and beautiful scenery. It was not his world, but it was still interesting. He began to value the special experience of learning about the past and the wide range of events that happened on Earth. Ted let out a happy sigh as he watched the stars start to appear in the dark sky. No matter how many times he went back in time, the Jurassic period, with its huge dinosaurs and beautiful woods, will always have a special place in his stuffed animal heart.

Book excerpt: Beneath Broken Machines is a cup of cold water to a dry, parched, and weary soul. In ministry, its easy to portray that I ONCE was lost...but now Ive got it all together. PC writes this book with humility and openness, which gives permission to confess that your machine is broken as well. - Travis Osborne, Pastor at Vintage Faith Church in Santa Cruz, CA As someone who has left the church, this book spoke to me. Im not talking about an awakening with pomp and circumstance, but something more simple, beautiful, and powerful. PC has always been a guiding force in my life, and this incredibly powerful book is no different. - Kyle Lacy, 3x Author and National Speaker We have a propensity to build machines out of our faith. We like to put in the right things in hopes it will churn out the right product. We become proud of the manufactured machines of faith we have built. The troubles with machines are they have no hearts and they break down. If your machine has broken down, you may have no idea what to do. Embark on a search for the heart that still beats for you. Embrace the wonder and awe of the ridiculous love of God that has always been for you. Encounter the heart of the gospel, which is the heart of Jesus beneath all of your pain, failure, and shame.
