1. John Jr and Durga learned about the Armor of God at Bible Camp. They wanted to learn more and asked the camp counselor for more information. 2. John Jr and Durga found the verse about the Armor of God in Ephesians 6:10-18. They decided to break the verse down to better understand it. 3.The verse started out "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the [wiles of the devil. " John Jr asked Durga if he knew how to be strong in the Lord. Durga said that Your spirit thrives on being connected to the earth, the world around you and to others. 3. Then John Jr explored the meaning of the verse , "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of ]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." Durga didn't understand the Flesh and blood part. John Jr explained that the battle is spiritual, not physical. He says that the enemies we face are not people or objects, but rather an unseen spiritual enemy. 4. The last part of the verse is "Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." John Jr told Durga that they needed to stand against evil by Being Strong in the Lord., Standing on God's Word, Don't Lose Heart and Standing in Faith. 5. John Jr and Durga decide that they would try putting on the armor of God by reading and praying God's word, and remembering that God's righteousness protects them, and that they can have faith in his promises. John Jr and Durga decided that their daily practices would include prayer, scripture study, journaling, acts of kindness, exercise, and associating with friends of high standards

Arthur took Tommy to Central Park for some quality time, but work calls kept interrupting. While Arthur stepped away to answer yet another call, Tommy, feeling ignored, wandered off into the park. When Arthur turned back, Tommy was gone. Tommy woke at dawn in a quiet part of the park, surrounded by Felix, a cunning fox, and Penelope, a wise peacock. They quickly befriended him, teaching him survival skills. Felix showed him how to find food and avoid danger, while Penelope taught him to build shelters and think about the bigger picture, like the environment and community. As days turned to weeks, Tommy adapted to life in the park. Felix valued self-reliance and tradition, sharing tales of a wilder past. Penelope championed progress and cooperation, organizing the animals to solve shared challenges. Tommy absorbed lessons from both but began questioning where he belonged. After a year, Tommy had become part of the park. But Felix and Penelope argued over his future. Felix believed he was better off free in nature, while Penelope insisted he needed to return to society. Frustrated, Tommy shouted, “I don’t belong to either of you!” and ran off. In his escape, Tommy stumbled into the human world, startling several babies in strollers. Their cries grew louder, drawing the attention of Arthur, who had been searching for him all along. Arthur embraced Tommy, apologizing for neglecting him, and took him home. Tommy left the park with new skills and a deeper understanding of himself, while Arthur vowed to give his son the attention he deserved. Their bond was stronger, having weathered the trials of both the wild and the city.
