Elijah tells his stories in the shadows of a lion’s den.
Stories about heroes. Stories about pretending.
But when the lions listen without judgment—and someone else begins to listen too—Elijah is faced with a different kind of bravery.
Inspired by the biblical account of Daniel, The Shape of Courage explores what it means to be honest about who you are. Through a child’s perspective, this tender story gently reminds readers that courage isn’t about being admired or appearing strong. It’s about telling the truth, even when it’s hard. It’s about choosing integrity when no one is watching.
A thoughtful, faith-filled story about quiet bravery and the strength that grows when we stop pretending and start becoming.
Created for children—and the adults who read with them.
