The Little Lamp of Faith

The Little Lamp of Faith is a beautifully told and richly illustrated children's book that follows young Nephi as he discovers the power of faith, hope, and charity during a life-changing journey with his family. Set in ancient Jerusalem and brought to life in warm Pixar-style 3D artwork, this gentle story invites children ages 6 and up to explore timeless Christian principles through the eyes of a courageous and compassionate boy. As Nephi (pronounced Knee-fi) walks through the bustling marketplace with his mother, he finds opportunities to help those in need—a struggling old man, a hungry child, and a weary brother. His kindness is noticed and rewarded in unexpected ways, including the gift of a tiny clay lamp that becomes a symbol of God's guiding light. That night, Nephi dreams of a brilliant star that fills him with peace and strengthens his faith. When the Lord instructs Nephi's father, Lehi, to take the family into the wilderness, Nephi's simple lamp becomes a reminder that even the smallest light can bring comfort in dark and uncertain times. Through desert journeys, sibling quarrels, moments of fear, and signs of God's protection—including the joyful arrival of Nephi's loyal dog Jacob—Nephi learns that faith shines brightest when shared with others. Heartfelt, uplifting, and filled with gentle spiritual lessons, The Little Lamp of Faith is a tender story that will inspire children to trust in God, choose kindness, and let their own light shine.
