Nemo Lesson One: Tell A Story Worth Telling!


First, Marlin, Nemo’s over-protective father, is on a quest to find his son, Nemo, who was taken by a diver, and placed (unbeknownst to his father) in an aquarium in a dentist’s office in far away Sydney, Australia. He tells his story to some turtles, who quickly pass the story to fish who pass it to lobsters who pass it to dophins, etc…. until it finally reached a pelican, who knows where Nemo is!

He quickly flies to tell the little fish that his Dad is doing everything to find him! When Nemo is told of His father’s quest and determination to find him, he is inspired to not give hope, and he sets about on a new course that eventually leads to his escape back to the sea and back to his dad! The story of his father’s quest was the main story of the movie; and the story of our Father’s quest for us through Christ is the main story of our lives! Hopefully, we’ll be sharing it whenever we can! (To see this clip go to :
