Christian character growth requires learning to grow and to apply God's principles of love, honesty, and forgiveness.

Twins, a young man and his sister, live with their mother on their uncle's property. The uncle wants to sell the girl for a bride price of 12 cattle. The boy goes to the city and is able to earn the amount of money needed to purchase his sister's freedom. The purchase becomes an illustration of the price Jesus paid with his death on the cross.
