Christoph Von Schmid: A Basket Of Flowers

Set in Germany 100 years ago, "A Basket of Flowers" by Christoph von Schmid is the tale of a godly young woman and her father who wrongly suffer great persecution, but who learn to trust the sovereign hand of God through every difficult circumstance. Christoph von Schmid's story of "A Basket of Flowers" centers on James, a godly gardener, and his young daughter, Mary. Their happy and simple life is disrupted when Mary is accused and convicted of theft. At her trial, Mary tells the truth, maintaining her innocence in spite of great pressure. Convicted as thief and accomplice, Mary and her father begin their sentence for the crime. Continuing his lessons about the gospel from nature, James encourages Mary through this trial and prepares her for the next, greater blow in the story of "Christoph von Schmid: A Basket of Flowers."
