Description People tell you to follow your dreams. This is usually told in a rosy attitude. But what if following your dreams is scary? What if your dreams become a nightmare? But by following our dreams, by facing our nightmares, we become complete. For two years our nameless main character has been unable to sleep— he has been haunted by the same dream. In the dream, God is asking him to lead a den of lions. But in order to do so, he must show exactly what he is missing to be fully human— courage. Part hero's journey, part spiritual awakening, The Lions' Den is a short story about earning courage. Reviews "This book teaches us that fears and limitations are the product of our imagination. It is fabulous," Merolany Crespo "I read [the] book on my plane back to Tallahassee as we were landing. Honestly, wow. I promise I am not exaggerating when I say that I truly 'felt' the words and their messages. It is so beautifully and simply written and I kind of just sat there as everyone left the plane to take it in when I finished. Very powerful. I cannot wait until your next work comes out," Parker Sloan "Every word takes you on a journey into yourself!!" David Leal"I read 'The Lions' Den,' great poetry. I really like the ending. I'll need to read it a few more times though to understand what I'm not seeing at first sight yet. Beautiful sense of faith," Guylo Pierre"The book made me cry twice," Carlos Lacayo
