Joab: The Commander Who Lost His Way (Children of the Word Series: Books 25–36) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

One strong commander. One prideful choice. One God who shows a better way.
Joab, King David’s mighty commander, won countless battles and struck fear into Israel’s enemies. But his story is not remembered for victories—it’s remembered for how pride, control, and harsh leadership led to his downfall. Joab’s life warns us that leadership without humility cannot stand.
Everett, a middle school soccer captain, faces the same temptation in a modern-day parable. His skill and position give him influence, but pride begins to creep in. He shouts at teammates, hogs the ball, and demands control. When victories turn hollow and respect slips away, Everett must decide if he will keep leading like Joab—or choose a better way.
In this modern-day Bible story children’s book from the Children of the Word Series, kids will:

• Step into Joab’s world and experience his rise, rivalries, victories, and downfall.
• Connect through a modern-day parable featuring Everett, a team captain learning the cost of pride.
• Discover an action plan designed to help kids apply biblical truths about humility in their own lives.

Perfect for kids ages 6–12, this book brings Scripture to life through relatable storytelling and a gentle reminder:
“True leadership isn’t about control. True leadership is about humility.”
“When you lift others up, you reflect God’s heart.”
Whether for bedtime reading, Sunday school, homeschool lessons, or family devotionals, Joab — The Commander Who Lost His Way will inspire children to choose servant leadership that honors God.
