Publisher's Description

▼▲

Oliver may be a brave and noble knight by day, but he is terrified of the dark by night—until a wise, old firefly helps him understand that God's Word is our light. In this Scripture adventure, kids join Oliver as he hides under an eagle's wings, is hoisted onto the shoulders of a strong angel, tramples poisonous snakes, and even rides on the back of a mighty lion. Through it all, Sir Oliver learns that God always protects His children and that we are never alone, even when it is dark outside.

Based on Psalm 91:1-2.
