Benaiah, close-up

BENAIAH

A pit. A lion. A snowy day. And the warrior who jumped in anyway.

Benaiah's Story

A warrior does not run from a roar. He runs toward it.

What makes a man brave? Is it the enemies he defeats, the danger he faces, or his refusal to run when everyone else would? Benaiah possessed all three. Yet beneath the strength of a legendary warrior was a man discovering that true courage runs deeper than victory.

In I Changed the World: Benaiah, Joel and Jason Clark bring imaginative life to the biblical story of one of David’s mighty men. Building upon the events recorded in Scripture, they follow Benaiah through battles, brotherhood, loss, and his legendary encounter with a lion in a pit on a snowy day.

Through Benaiah’s journey, readers discover that strength is more than what we can conquer. It is found in facing our fears, trusting God in the fight, and becoming who we were created to be.

Giants may reveal your strength, but what you do with that strength can change the world.
