_Status: planned branch chapter. _
## Planned Function
- Let James's Christian belief become positive conviction rather than panic management. - Define the route's theology through conversations, worship, and choices rather than exposition alone. - Begin turning the shaytan's bargain against itself by making manipulation less useful.
## Continuity Locks
- The branch honors Jesus without making him the object of worship. - "Allah" can appear as the Arabic word for God when the speaker or source warrants it. - Clara remains present as a helper whose insight matters.
