In Zoe’s Time to Shine, children are invited into the story of a young girl who learns that true courage comes from trusting God. Zoe loves to sing and dreams of performing in front of others, but fear holds her back. With gentle encouragement from her parents and a growing understanding of God’s presence, Zoe discovers that she can shine—not because she’s perfect, but because God is with her. This tender, faith-filled story helps children face their fears with confidence rooted in Scripture.
