Amy recently opened an note with an order that just made our day. Here is what it said: "Yay! I I'm so pumped to get some real heroes into my boys hands in a way they can relate to outside of a Sunday school setting and that can visually compete with all the good, but yet fictional super heroes." - Chanel Stevens What a great way to start the day!
Chanel couldn't have stated our goal any more succinctly. This is what we hope for for all of our children! Enthusiasm and encouragement to reach their divine potential.

My SuperHero
I just had to drop a quick note in gratitude and recognition of today's superhero. His name is Brad and today he appeared in my driveway with his grandson and snow shovels and set to work making sure I could get myself and the kids out to school.
That might not seem like a big thing to most people, although anytime someone else is willing to shovel snow it is pretty incredible, but with Lance gone to Alabama it was a Godsend. Without his help I and the kids would have been late to school. Then I would have had to come back and try to scrap all the packed snow out of the driveway. Have you noticed how much bigger your driveway is in the winter when you are shoveling snow!
Sure, I could have done it myself and in the grand scheme of things it wouldn't have really mattered if the kids were a little bit late to school but the kindness and thought that went into getting over to our house was very touching. It also saved me from more than a little bit of stress.
I have been going over this in my mind and suddenly realized that Brad was a hero because he was doing what makes all hero's super, service! Looking out for each other, helping (serving) people in need is what make a SuperHero! Luckily we don't have to be able to see through buildings, spin webs, or own an invisible plane to be a hero. We can ALL be hero's!

POSTERS!!
The new Scripture Heroes posters are here!! They are incredible! In case you couldn't tell from all the exclamation points and capital letters, we are super excited to offer these to you. The colors are fun and exciting and of course they include a scripture verse.
We are so pleased about how they turned out that we are trying to find a way to get all of our heroes on to posters. Right now we have Esther (my personal fav), Joseph, David, and Captain Moroni. The posters are on 80lb gloss paper and at 11x17 inches they are the perfect size for the little or BIG superheroes in our lives. We worked very hard to find a way to make the price of these super awesome posters very accessible to all of our friends and family. They are only $5.95 and that price includes shipping it with a postal tube so that there won't be any creases in your poster. (To be honest I am almost as excited about the price as the poster.)
It would be hard to estimate how much time and thought went into having the posters produced. What seemed like a simple idea turned into a labor of love and as most parents know any labor of love is worth the effort. We think you will agree check them out at http://www.bibleheroshirts.com/. This link will take you to the home page, just click on accessories to see the posters. Let us know what you think and what additional superheroes you would like to see as a poster, because we guarantee they will look great!

Samson
WOW! What more is there to say. Unfortunately, the bible doesn't say very much about Samson, but he is definitely a guy that I will look forward to chatting with in the next life just to hear more of his story.
He was given great power and as Uncle Ben says, "With great power comes great responsibility." Go to our website http://www.bibleheroshirts.com/ and read the story about Samson. What I love about this story is the timeless reminder that we are powerful through the Lord. I think there are other lessons in this story but I want to hear what you think. Let me know what lessons or idea's this story inspires in you by leaving a comment on the blog. I look forward to hearing what you have to say.

About Us
Here is how we got started: Once upon a time there was a young Mother who was trying to study her scriptures. Here is her story:
"My name is Amy and I am a mother of 3. My youngest is 4 years old and suffers from superhero obsessive compulsive disorder (SOCD). He has a closet of clothing but will only wear the 4 shirts with superheroes on them. Two of these shirts are pajama shirts but frankly, I am glad to have them so that the other two can escape for a trip through the laundry now and then.
Amy
One day after at least 3 minutes of uninterrupted scripture study, my youngest became highly upset, due to the fact that he couldn't find his superman shirt and could I go look for it. I knew perfectly well that it was under some things in the laundry basket waiting for it's turn in the washing machine. With a big sigh, I wished how I had a Moroni superhero shirt that he could poor all this matchless enthusiasm into and the idea was born! I'll make one! And visions of replacing Superman, Spider-Man and the others with Moroni, Nephi, and all our true life heroes danced in my head.
Since then, I have partnered up with DKay, my best friend and fellow supermom."
Dieuwke
And now you know the story.Our goal is a "SuperHero Paradigm Shift" for the rising generation. May they come to see Noah, Moses, Esther, and the rest as the superheroes they really are!
We hope to add many more heroes, provide posters for bedroom walls, and create a coloring book in the near future. For now, we hope that these shirts provide a nice option for families suffering from SOCD!
If you are interested in this project, want to purchase a shirt, or simply comment you can check out http://www.bibleheroshirts.com/. We are also on Facebook.
