Polished Arrow DVD - Jeff Cavins
 Isaiah once said, “He made my mouth like a sharp sword, in the shadow of His hand He hid me; He made me a polished arrow, in His quiver He hid me away” (Is. 49:2). In this dynamic presentation, author and theologian Jeff Cavins demonstrates the steps involved in making a polished arrow and illustrates how this process is similar to our own spiritual growth. You will be amazed at the transformation of a branch into an arrow, and the transformation that God desires to bring to you.
