Weekly Challenge

 Spend some time in Ephesians 6 learning about the armor of God with a focus on standing your ground against the enemy. Read this section of Scripture repetitively and interact with it in new ways. Then, consider reading about Daniel and his friends in the first few chapters of the book Daniel, focusing on how they stood their ground.
