The Radical Rescue delivers stories about Jesus for kids of all ages. Follow the ministry of the Savior from His childhood experiences with the priests in the temple all the way to His betrayal, death, and resurrection. Each story shows how Jesus was—and is—the Radical Rescuer from a much bigger problem than the Romans.
Written by teachers, each story brings an engaging lesson followed by Bible verses to read, activities to do, and thought-provoking questions to answer.
Perfect for personal reading, family worship, or classroom study, these vibrant stories will help kids learn how to study the Bible and strengthen their relationship with Jesus, the One who radically rescued each one of us.

Illustrated by Katie Nahab
God asks all of us to be boldly brave in the ongoing struggle between good and evil. However, warriors for God do not always fight with swords or spears. God gives each of us weapons of faith.
In Boldly Brave you will find stories of girls and women, men and boys of the Bible who used their weapons of faith—kindness, prayer, love, trust, and hope—to win battles for God.
You can use your weapons of faith, too, when you face problems in your life. God promises to help you win the victory because when you are victorious, He is victorious!
Read the stories of Rebekah and Ruth, Miriam and Esther, Samuel and Solomon, Isaac and Josiah, and many more, to learn how they stepped out boldly with their faith-weapons to win victories
for Jesus. Then look for the questions and activities following each story—questions to make you think, fun activities to help you understand the story better, and suggestions of how to be God’s warrior every day.
