MEET THE FAMILY
Abe
is the loving grandfather of this large family, known for his calm spirit, wisdom, kindness, and playful sense of humor. In his natural form, he carries a simple walking stick, but in the spiritual realm it becomes a powerful wizard’s staff. Years of experience have made him steady and thoughtful, and his family looks to him for guidance and comfort. Though powerful, he remains gentle, warm, and deeply devoted to those he loves.
Faith
is the playful and spirited grandmother of the family, always ready with a joke and just enough mischief to keep everyone on their toes. She is incredibly proud of each of her grandchildren, and it’s easy to see where Ellie inherited her beauty and warmth. Faith can often be found knitting or sewing, but in the spirit realm her knitting needles transform into sleek, elegant daggers. Beneath her playful nature is a strong, loving woman who is fiercely devoted to her family.
David
is a devoted husband and father who loves his wife, Esther, and treasures time with his family. Brave, compassionate, and thoughtful, he makes a point to be present for the people he loves, no matter how busy life becomes. David loves to carry the Scriptures with him, and in the realm of the Spirit his Bible becomes a massive broadsword. Like King David, he is a man after God's own heart.
Esther
is the loving heart of the family, deeply devoted to her husband and each of her children. She makes time for everyone, bringing a peaceful, calming presence wherever she goes—beautiful and graceful, almost like a melody. Esther is rarely without her purse, which in the spirit realm becomes an endless bag capable of holding anything she could possibly need. Warm, prepared, and full of love, she has a way of making everyone around her feel cared for.
John
is the oldest son and a natural leader, thoughtful, dependable, and always thinking a few steps ahead. He loves writing ideas, observations, and plans in his notebook, which becomes something far greater in the spirit realm—a living map that reveals exactly where he and his family need to go. Calm under pressure and eager to help others, John often becomes the one everyone looks to when it’s time to choose a direction and move forward.
Ellie
is the oldest daughter and the calm, level-headed voice in the family. Cool, thoughtful, and dependable, she is always ready to help her mom, Esther, and the two share an especially close bond. Her cat, Judah, mirrors Ellie’s steady and confident personality, but in the spirit realm he is revealed as a massive, majestic lion. Together, Ellie and Judah bring a quiet strength and reassuring presence wherever they go.
Grace
is a creative and musical twelve-year-old who loves playing her ukulele and writing songs of her own. A natural storyteller, she often uses music to share her imagination and entertain her family. Her creativity is matched by a bright, adventurous spirit, and in the spirit realm her beloved ukulele transforms into an elegant and powerful bow. Whether she’s telling a story, writing a song, or joining an adventure, Grace brings imagination and heart wherever she goes.
Isaac
is a funny, loving ten-year-old with a huge heart for animals and an even bigger desire to prove he can handle responsibility. He wants to be trusted and respected like the older kids, even when he may not be quite ready for everything he takes on. His constant companion is his pet turtle, Clark, who becomes a loyal dinosaur steed in the spirit realm. Together, they bring plenty of humor, heart, and adventure to the family.
Jubilee
is the joyful seven-year-old daughter of the family, full of hope, wonder, and an endless imagination. She has a way of seeing the extraordinary in everyday life, and her cheerful spirit brings excitement and encouragement wherever she goes. She also treasures her stuffed animal butterfly, Dr. Fluttersworth, who transforms into a giant colorful butterfly in the spirit realm. Together, they reflect Jubilee’s playful heart and bright sense of wonder.
Cole
is a playful and energetic five-year-old who seems to bring excitement wherever he goes. He absolutely loves riding his tricycle, which transforms into a powerful futuristic motorcycle in the spirit realm. Curious, fearless, and always ready for an adventure, Cole especially looks up to his older brother John and wants to be with him at all times. Beneath all his energy is a sweet, loving heart and a deep affection for his family.
Noah
is the carefree six-month-old baby of the family, full of joy, laughter, and a peaceful nature. He sleeps well, loves being around everyone, and has a way of lighting up the room wherever he goes. Though tiny in the natural realm, Noah is surprisingly powerful in the spirit realm. His stuffed polar bear, Little Joe, transforms into a massive polar bear that carries Noah proudly on his back through every adventure.
