RAISING COURAGEOUS BOYS
LAND OF GIANTS
A secret alliance, A dangerous mission, A deadly enemy.
Twelve-year-old Shem wants one thing—to become a warrior. But his father, Noah, is too busy building a giant ark to train him. The world mocks his family, and Shem is tired of feeling left out and embarrassed. He’s ready to trade his tools for a sword and show the Cobras, the toughest gang in the city, that he’s not just some weird kid with a crazy dad.
When Shem makes a secret deal with the son of a family rival, he finally gets the training he’s always wanted. But something isn’t right. Monstrous giants called Nephilites have invaded the land. And the dragon they serve is more dangerous than Shem ever imagined. If Shem wants to protect his family, he’ll have to learn what it really means to be a warrior.
Land of Giants is an action-packed Biblical adventure, perfect for readers who long to battle dragons, defy giants, and discover the true strength that comes from the King.

An Ancient Egyptian Adventure
City of the Sun
A Dragon Slayer Bible Short Story
A Sacred Bull. A Golden Scarab. And one impossible choice.
In the shadow of Egypt’s towering temples, twelve-year-old Ephraim has one dream: to become the sacred bull guardian of Heliopolis. As the grandson of the High Priest, Ephraim has spent his whole life preparing for the priesthood. Now, in just two days, he’ll take part in the Barque Ceremony, the sacred ritual that will bind his heart to Egypt’s gods forever.
But his father’s voice refuses to stay silent: There is no God but El Shaddai. As the ceremony draws closer, doubts begin to crack everything he thought he believed.
Caught between two faiths, Ephraim must decide between the life he always wanted and the God he can no longer ignore.
City of the Sun is part of a larger collection of short stories—Serpents and Sacrifice—book 2.5 in The Dragon Slayer Bible Series. Serpents and Sacrifice will be releasing in the winter of 2027. Sign up for updates below.
“Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

But in today’s world, finding books that capture their spirit of adventure while reinforcing biblical values can feel like an impossible quest.
