A news story featured on Nightline and World News Tonight has made its way to your local area. A Walmart store in your area is currently selling an entire line of Christian Toys called Tales of Glory. This is the first time that a national retailer like Walmart is carrying Christian toys. You have a rare opportunity to cover the story from a local level and get video or pictures of the toys on the shelves at Walmart, something that has not been done.
This toy line includes a Talking Jesus Doll that speaks Bible verses such as John 3:16. The Jesus Doll in particular is selling incredibly well and based on current sales will be sold out before Christmas. Is the Tales of Glory Jesus Doll this years "Tickle Me Elmo"?
To find out which store in your area has Tales of Glory visit our Wamart Store Locator at www.one2believe.com.
And their coda: The Battle For The Toy Box Is On!
