Mentions a spiritual 'enemy' and 'evil,' but the focus is on God's protection, not the threat.

The book's core is its Christian religious teaching. It deals directly with concepts of good versus evil in a spiritual sense, referencing "the enemy's schemes" or "flaming arrows." This is handled metaphorically, equating the "battle" with making good choices, overcoming fear, and resisting temptation rather than physical violence. The resolution is entirely hopeful and empowering, providing the child with tools for spiritual protection and confidence.
