A New Devotional for Preteen Boys
#1 New Release!
Rise of the Enemy
Book One of the Dragon Slayer Bible Stories
Rise of the Enemy, a Dragon Slayer Bible Story, will inspire boys to join the armies of the Dragon Slayer in the epic battle of good vs evil. Through action-packed stories, inspiring scripture, and challenging devotional readings, boys will be trained to stand firm against the invisible enemy, and to use weapons of warfare to deflect the lies of the Evil One.
In Rise of the Enemy, Michael never expected his comrade, Lucifer, to rebel against the King of Heaven, let alone turn into a dragon. But Lucifer will stop at nothing in an attempt to overpower the throne.
Can Michael and his army of angels defeat the enemy or will Lucifer’s evil plan succeed?

Garden of Secrets
Book Two of the Dragon Slayer Bible Stories
The Kickstarter campaign for Garden of Secrets will launch run from April 3-19, 2024.
A mysterious prophecy.
An ancient curse.
An invisible dragon.
Seth’s parents had secrets they wouldn’t share with him. Why had they been kicked out of the Garden? Why had the King cursed the land? He wanted to know more. He had to find out the truth.
But finding answers to his questions would prove more challenging than he imagined.
In the second book in the Dragon Slayer Bible Series, readers will experience a world where the consequences of sin have affected every part of creation, even the animals.
Can Seth learn his parents’ secret before the dragon destroys him?
Confident Prayers
Using Scripture to Pray for Your Children
Do you want to pray confident prayers for your children?
This free ebook is a collection of 10 scripture passages, with accompanying prayers based on those same passages.
These prayers will help you use the actual words of the Bible to pray back to God.
I John 5:14-15 says, “And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.”
Let’s boldly bring our children before the throne of our gracious God. Let’s not give up or grow weary in doing the work of prayer that God has called us to do!
