Gideon's Tiny Army

By Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.

Gideon was hiding in a winepress when God called him a mighty man of valor. This read-aloud retelling of Judges 6-7 follows Gideon's honest questions, the fire on the rock, the fleece wet and dry, and an army God shrank on purpose — from 32,000 men down to 300 holding trumpets, jars, and torches — so no one could miss who won the battle. Children ages 6-12 who feel too small, too weak, or picked last will hear the promise that carries the whole story: “I will be with you.” Each chapter ends with a simple prayer or a small “Do” for the week.

Written from a Christian worldview — Scripture first.
