Having been injured in early childhood, Anna Sewell would have difficulty walking for most of her life. As such she had to rely on horse-drawn carriages to get around. It was this experience that inspired her love of horses. Black Beauty is a fictional autobiography told from the perspective of the horse.

These words of Jesus recorded in John chapter 3, verse 16, are perhaps the most well known in the Bible, but what do they actually teach?
