Ep 32 · The One Who Wasn't There

Garingo the parrot loves an audience — so what's the point of a good deed if nobody's there to clap? But one morning the Creek is full of small good things that just happened: the gate's mended, the trough's full, the bramble's cleared, and nobody saw who did it. Garingo sets out to catch the mystery do-gooder and throw him a parade — and learns it's Ranger Ray, the keeper who tends the whole place season after season and is never seen and never thanked. So Garingo tries it himself, fixing a footbridge plank with no audience at all — and finds out how it feels to do a real good thing nobody notices. Does it still count? A warm, quiet story about the good you do when no one's watching, anchored in Galatians 6:9 — 'let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.' Ages 4-12.
