Why Sword and Key?
The SWORD, a metaphor for the written word, divides truth from falsehood and opens lives up for healing and wholeness.
The KEY represents the power of the spoken word, unlocking hearts and minds.
Together, SWORD AND KEY brings light where there was darkness and restores hope to the broken.
