Lanus, a new recruit, finds he has much to learn about obedience, about failure, about victory and about the vital importance of putting on the full armor of the King. In this fascinating tale of spiritual warfare, the story of Lanus vividly illustrates the Christian s conflict with Satan. Come along as a new convert trains for battle by skillfully wielding the ultimate weapon of righteousness, the Sword of the Word of God. The Shining Sword is sure to help children grasp the concept of putting on the whole armor of God. Beautifully written, the story pulls the reader in from the first chapter and the new updated pen and ink illustrations add visual drama to the narrative. Children and adults will be able to relate to the experiences of Lanus and the other soldiers of the King. This allegorical presentation of believers lives as knights and soldiers of Christ will captivate anyone s imagination. In some respects, The Shining Sword will remind older readers of the Pilgrim s Progress, but the focus in The Shining Sword is using each piece of the armor of God wisely and correctly. In particular, readers learn along with new knight Lanus how to wield the Word of God (the sword) in various situations. While intended for readers from ages 8-13, it is one of those read-aloud stories that will capture the attention and interest of any reader or listener. Moreover, it is a tale that presents tremendous discussion opportunities on what it means to be a knight of the King in the spiritual warfare that all believers face daily. Whether The Shining Sword is used in family devotions, enjoyed in a read-aloud setting, or is given to lone readers to utilize the armor on their own, it is a story that will leave a lasting impression on all who encounter it. It will challenge all readers to be victorious in Christ by using the armor He has supplied for us.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1411661\"\u003eCharles G.
