Audacious Arrows
By Ruth Lytle
Audacious Arrows: building recklessly bold men and women of God through the power of God’s Word!
Children are like arrows in the hands of a warrior. (Psalm 127) We want children who are audacious; recklessly bold like Shadrack, Meshack, Abednego, David, and Esther. Heroes of old were fearless because the Lord was their light and salvation.
