Tonight’s bedtime story gently invites you and your child into one of the most tender and misunderstood stories in all of scripture—the story of Adam and Eve, the Garden of Eden, and God’s loving plan for His children.
At first, the story of the Fall can sound serious or even sad. A garden left behind. A choice made. A world suddenly harder than before.
But when we listen closely—especially through the restored gospel—we discover something deeply comforting.
The Garden was not a mistake. And leaving it was not a failure.
This peaceful, scripture-based bedtime story gently teaches that God gave Adam and Eve two commandments: to remain in the Garden for a time, and to multiply, grow, and learn through mortal experience.
Through agency, opposition, and divine love, Adam and Eve stepped forward into God’s greater plan—a plan designed to help His children learn, grow, form families, and ultimately return to Him through Jesus Christ.
This story is told slowly and softly, using calming imagery, simple language, and reassurance appropriate for children, families, and anyone seeking peaceful, faith-centered rest before sleep.
✨ In this bedtime story, your child will hear gentle truths such as: • God’s commandments are given in love • Growth sometimes requires change • Opposition helps us learn and become stronger • Mistakes do not remove God’s love • Jesus Christ was part of God’s plan from the beginning • God stays near, even when life feels uncertain
As the story unfolds, listeners are guided from the beauty of Eden into a world filled with hope, promise, and possibility—reminded that God’s plan is not rushed, harsh, or condemning, but patient, purposeful, and full of grace.
This bedtime story is especially helpful for: • Families following Come, Follow Me • Children learning about Adam and Eve for the first time • Parents wanting to teach gospel doctrine gently and accurately • Anyone seeking calm, peaceful, scripture-based content before sleep
As the night winds down, the narration transitions into relaxation cues—slowing breath, calming the body, and inviting rest—helping listeners feel safe, loved, and spiritually reassured as they fall asleep.
🌙 Perfect for bedtime, quiet evenings, family scripture study, or personal reflection.
