with contributions from Brooke Leaf-Wright, Lauren Mitchell, Davi Cravo da Silveira, Madeleine L'Engle

Ever wish you could put on invisible armor to be safe from bad things? Paul in the Bible tells how to do it:

"PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD SO THAT YOU MAYBE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL... STAND THEREFORE, AND FASTEN THE BELT OF TRUTH AROUND YOUR WASTE AND PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS... WITH ALL OF THESE TAKE THE SHIELD OF FAITH... TAKE THE HELMET OF SALVATION, AND THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD."—Eph. 6:11, 14–17 NRSV

Here kids tell how they have felt protected by God's power.
