- Lynda likes to write resources which engage her grandchildren actively in learning about the real people in the Bible and how they chose to walk with God; this is why she wrote her Illustrate My Own Bible Hero books. One is currently available - Jehoshaphat knew something very frightening! He knew there was a huge army . . . bigger than his own army . . . on their way to destroy him! Jehoshaphat knew he was not able to stop the army on his own, but he knew God could! What God did was the most amazing thing Jehoshaphat ever saw!As you learn about Jehoshaphat in this “Illustrate My Own –Unknown Bible Hero” book, you will have the opportunity to show your creativity and provide the illustrations making this book truly your own! More importantly, as you decide how to illustrate your book you will come to learn who Jehoshaphat was and will remember the important lesson he taught about how you are able to know when you don’t have the power to face sad and frightening troubles on your own, you may turn to God for help, because He will hear and help you!
