That is wonderful. I thnk too we need to let our children know who the enemy is. Children love epics and there is nothing more epic then the eternal struggle. They also love a just and happy ending. We can tell them with confidence who triumphs in the end. Emphasising that they too are soldiers in this struggle will appeal to them. They are not bystanders but warriors for Jesus.

My dad once shared with me when I was a kid that when he was growing up, in Boston, he lived around alot of “separated brethren”. He told me that they bullied and teased him because of his Catholic faith. He couldn't even ride down the street without being harassed. He told me that after that experience, he swore that if he ever had children he would never raise a religious bigot and that we should never get in the faces of people who differ in opinion, or treat them un-Christlike because of different faiths. That has always stayed with me and when I read posts such as these I think that these people are no different then in my dad's day. Its very sad.
