[edit] Summary
Lucy and Glenn follow Whit around Odyssey to see what his life is like now that he has returned from the Middle East.
[edit] Plot
We’re back on Kids Radio again. This time, Lucy Cunningham-Schultz takes the microphone to Whit’s End for a day to follow John Avery Whittaker as he adjusts to life off the mission field. Lucy and Glenn, who is also reporting, catch up with Whit at breakfast at Hal's Diner, where he eats and reads his Bible. From there, he goes to Whit’s End, where Connie and Eugene are waiting for him, and getting into one of their famous “discussions.” After helping to resolve things, Whit talks to Lucy about Connie and Eugene. He describes how Connie has matured and how Eugene’s faith has changed him for the better.
Next, we follow Whit as he helps Sam Johnson solve a problem, as he works on the Imagination Station, then deals with Harlow Doyle, and finally takes Connie to the doctor when she cuts her finger and needs stitches. Whit wraps things up by telling Lucy how he thanks God for letting him share with the families who come to visit at Whit’s End, for his enriching friends, and for another day of living in God’s grace. As for what the next day will be like? Whit says it will probably be pretty typical, meaning unpredictable. Which is just the way he likes it.
[edit] Discussion Questions
- Whit reads his Bible at breakfast. When do you read your Bible each day?
- Why is it important to have a regular quiet time?
- What kinds of things can you do in your quiet time?
- Whit said that he thanks God for allowing him to live another day in God’s grace. What does that mean?

[edit] Notes
- After this episode, (not counting Christmas Around the World), AIO went on a hiatus that lasted until September of the next year.
- This sadly is the last episode that Lucy appears in (as a kid character at least-she came back in The Triangled Web, Parts 1 and 2) and the second to last one Sam Johnson is in bring a end to two of the most beloved kids in Odyssey history.
- In this episode Whit eats at Hal's Diner. According to the Complete Guide the diner was named after Hal Smith, "a tip of the hat".
- Connie was demonstrating how she cut her finger to the audience. It was radio. How could anybody see it? Although she was narrating as she did it...
- Listen carefully--you can hear writer/director Phil Lollar as a costumer in Hal's Diner.
