Please Turn On The Light!

by Jen Ashcraft, Avi Katz (Illustrator)

Overview

How do you handle fear?

Turn on the light?

Speak truth to 'shed some light?'

Either way, light is what we seek. And God gave it to us!

In Please Turn on the Light, Rachel learns that God cares to chase away her fears and has empowered her with His always-on, internal 'Night-Light!'

He gives her courage in the darkness and confidence to boldly face her fear!

Rachel doesn't know it yet, but the fun game through which her mom teaches her these powerful truths will become a life-long tool that God will use to help her courageously face all of her fears!
