Wordsmith World announces a new blog article by Christian author Betty Johansen exploring Biblical themes of protection and spiritual warfare through the lens of the book of Joshua and other scriptural narratives.

-- Wordsmith World has released a new article by Christian author Betty Johansen titled “God’s Big Battle Plan: Understanding How Our God Protects Us.” The article, which is the second installment of a two-part series, has been written for a juvenile audience and gives young readers an accessible exploration of God’s protective role in the ongoing spiritual battle depicted throughout Scripture, particularly through the story of Joshua and the conquest of the Promised Land.

This newly published piece is part of Johansen’s growing series of Bible study-based reflections aimed at helping Christians understand complex or challenging Biblical narratives within the larger context of God’s redemptive plan. In this installment, Johansen guides readers to see how stories that may at first appear harsh or confusing actually reveal God's love and desire to protect His people from spiritual harm.
Drawing parallels between ancient conflicts and present-day challenges, Johansen frames the conquest of Canaan not as a story of destruction, but of preservation—a divine effort to shield Israel from cultures steeped in idolatry and injustice. “God’s Big Battle Plan” invites readers to consider how the spiritual dangers of today may be just as real, and how they, like Joshua, are called to guard their hearts and minds against influences that pull them away from faith.
“Some parts of the Bible, especially in books like Joshua, can seem intimidating,” Johansen explains. “But when we understand the big picture—that God is waging a battle to protect what is good and to bring people back to Himself—it all starts to make sense. These aren’t just stories of ancient battles. They’re lessons for us today.”
Johansen’s article is crafted with clarity and compassion, ideal for individuals, families, or church groups seeking to deepen their understanding of Scripture. It draws on relatable metaphors and practical insights to help modern believers apply timeless Biblical truths in daily life.
“God’s Big Battle Plan” is now available on Johansen’s website and is part of a broader collection of faith-centered writings, including her Christian resources, non-fiction works, and cozy mystery novels—all written to encourage spiritual growth and thoughtful reflection. For adult readers, the introductory part of the blog series can be found at https://bettyjohansen.com/2025/05/08/is-the-god-of-the-bible-just-another-tribal-deity/.
