Confident Courage highlights the biblical story of a young Israelite shepherd named David who defends his father’s sheep with just his sling and stones. One day, he must face the fiercest enemy of his life, a Philistine warrior named Goliath, who stands almost 10 feet tall and is loaded with armor and weapons. Through story, fun activities, step-by-step drawing, and thoughtful devotions, the story of David and Goliath comes alive and applicable to children.

The Book in the Making

Here are some of the many ink drawings I did for Confident Courage. Ink is one of my favorite ways to create illustrations. I enjoy creating books that young readers take part in with their own thoughts, ideas, and drawings. I believe that as children use their hands and minds together, deeper thinking results about the subject. I know it does for me.
