It all started with the ridiculous birthday present his father gave him. Honestly, who gives an eleven-year-old an ancient half-ton dragon sculpture that's so huge it can only be parked in the back yard? Josh Draconette loves to camp overnight with his best friends, and since his family is insanely rich, he's got hundreds of pristine acres to choose from. His favorite camping spot - his favorite spot on the whole planet - is unfortunately also the perfect place for their business's new distribution center... meaning that after the bulldozers and construction crews are finished, there won't be anything left of Josh's beloved campsite. In a fit of despair, Josh's tears bring to life the sculpture, now a real dragon named Yu. The ever-growing dragon hides and hunts on the huge estate while Josh, his friends, and Yu plot to outwit the destruction and construction. They try everything, from vandalism to dragon magic, desperate to make his father give up. Josh couldn't believe that any cost would be too high to save his favorite place. But now something terrible has happened. He feels like a mummy inside a sarcophagus screaming to get out, and he doesn't know what disaster struck. Can the magic of a dragon's heart save him and his family, or will this be the end of everything Josh loves?

Becoming a dragon is a dangerously subtle process. You make a long chain of bad choices. The chain gradually wraps around you. Layer by layer, it begins to take on the aspect of scales. One day you glance at yourself in the mirror and a monster is staring back at you. You aren't who you used to be. You aren't who you want to be. You're not who you were created and designed to be. Instead, you're a dragon. When Jim Burgen was nineteen years old, he realized how easy it had been to become a dragon. He knew he didn't want to be one anymore . . . but how? No More Dragons is the story of our common, hopeful journey from dragonhood back to personhood. As Pastor Burgen narrates the remarkable process of reclaiming himself from himself, he implores modern church goers to shake off the trivialities of churchiness in favor of the substantive questions that make a spiritual transformation: “Is Jesus the only one who can undragon people?” “Why don't I like most churches?” “Where is God in difficult times?” “How do you shed decades of gnarly scales?” Some choices will lead you to a better life. Some will kill you. Some choices will add a new layer of scales to your dragon, and some will slough them off. No More Dragons is about asking Christ to deliver you and learning how to obey him.
