A story of courage, faith, and the everyday battles every young believer faces.

Twelve-year-old Caleb Turner never imagined that ordinary days could hide extraordinary battles. But when strange thoughts, sudden pressures, and unexpected fears begin interrupting his week, Caleb discovers a truth his family has known all along: the Christian life is a real war, and the battlefield is often the heart and mind.

In this engaging children’s novella, Marvin McKenzie brings the truths of spiritual warfare to a level young readers can understand. Through simple storytelling and relatable moments at school, home, and church, children learn that the devil works quietly—through discouragement, distraction, fear, and subtle temptations. But they also discover that God has provided everything they need to stand strong.

As Caleb learns from his father, grandfather, pastor, and the Word of God, he begins to recognize the enemy’s devices and understand the importance of the armor God provides in Ephesians 6. From night-time fears to schoolyard pressure, from whispered lies to moments of courage, Caleb learns how to respond not with panic, but with Scripture, prayer, and trust in the Lord.

Perfect for ages 9–13, this story helps young believers:
• Understand the reality of spiritual warfare
• Recognize the subtle ways temptation appears
• See how God’s Word answers fear, doubt, and confusion
• Appreciate the protective role of the local church
• Learn what it means to “stand” in God’s strength
• Grow in discernment and confidence in the Christian life

It is a gentle but powerful story that teaches children the truth Scripture presents: the battle is real, but so is our Savior. With relatable characters, everyday settings, and spiritually rich lessons, this book offers encouragement for kids navigating a world filled with unseen challenges.

Whether used for family devotions, Christian school reading, or personal study, this book provides a safe, biblical avenue to discuss spiritual battles and God’s provision for victory.
