Full Armor of God
For the fi rst time in his fourteen years, Michael wondered if God existed. It was easy believing when the world surrounding him was bright and beautiful. It was easy when he was with family and friends. Then his grandfather sent him on a quest. A quest to fi nd his father at the battlefront. Michael fi nds himself surrounded by danger and bleakness on the way to war. He knew he needed to be strong as he collected the pieces of the full armor of God. The full armor of God would protect him when he reached his father and fought with him. Can Michael do it? Can he gather the pieces of God’s armor in time? Will the temptation to run away be too great to overcome? Will the new friends he makes on his quest be able to help him in battle? Will his faith in the True King be enough to see him through his trials? Although Michael’s story takes place long ago and far away, it is an important reminder that we need to face each day cloaked in the full armor of God. Ephesians 6: 13-18

Featuring original contributions from a panel of experts representing North America, Asia, Europe, and Australia, this timely volume presents multidisciplinary views on recent corporate wrongdoing affecting econ...
