luften.En: The tulips were in full bloom, while laughter and the sound of carousels filled the air.Da: Jens og Signe gik hånd i hånd gennem haven, hvor duften af blomster blandede sig med ny poppede popcorn.En: Jens and Signe walked hand in hand through the gardens, where the scent of flowers mingled with freshly popped popcorn.Da: Jens var nervøs, men ikke på grund af rutschebanen, de nærmede sig.En: Jens was nervous, but not because of the roller coaster they were approaching.Da: Han havde en dyrebar ring gemt i lommen og en plan i tankerne.En: He had a precious ring hidden in his pocket and a plan in mind.Da: Mens de stod i kø til den store rutschebane, mærkede han ringen, sikret i en lille fløjlspose.En: As they stood in line for the big roller coaster, he felt the ring, secured in a small velvet pouch.Da: Dette skulle være dagen, tænkte han, dagen hvor han ville overraske Signe med et spørgsmål, han havde tænkt på i månedsvis.En: This should be the day, he thought, the day he would surprise Signe with a question he had been pondering for months.Da: Rutschebanen susede afsted, og Signe skreg af fryd.En: The roller coaster sped along, and Signe screamed in delight.Da: Jens prøvede at nyde turen, men hans tanker var hele tiden på ringen og det kommende øjeblik.En: Jens tried to enjoy the ride, but his thoughts were constantly on the ring and the upcoming moment.Da: Da de steg ud af vognen, stak han hånden i lommen for at tjekke ringen.En: As they got out of the carriage, he reached into his pocket to check the ring.Da: Hans mave sank.En: His stomach sank.Da: Lommen var tom.En: The pocket was empty.Da: "Signe, jeg tror, jeg har mistet noget vigtigt," sagde Jens, mens noget panik bredte sig i hans stemme.En: "Signe, I think I've lost something important," said Jens, as a hint of panic spread in his voice.Da: "Hvad er det?"En: "What is it?"Da: spurgte Signe, uvidende om betydningen af det tabte.En: Signe asked, unaware of the significance of the lost item.Da: "Et... et minde," improviserede Jens.En: "A... a memory," improvised Jens.Da: "Vil du hjælpe mig med at lede?"En: "Will you help me search for it?"Da: De begyndte at gå gennem hele parken, tilbage ad den vej, de havde fulgt, siden de kom.En: They began to walk through the entire park, retracing the path they had followed since they arrived.Da: Det blev en spontan skattejagt, fyldt med grin og små stop for at kigge under boder og bænke.En: It turned into an impromptu treasure hunt, filled with laughter and little stops to look under stalls and benches.Da: Selv om Jens var bekymret, følte han sig varm indeni af Signes begejstring og vilje til at hjælpe.En: Even though Jens was worried, he felt warm inside from Signe's excitement and willingness to help.Da: Da solen begyndte at gå ned, og Tivolis lys tændtes, var de tæt på at give op.En: As the sun began to set, and Tivoli's lights came on, they were close to giving up.Da: Jens kunne mærke en håbløshed krybe ind.En: Jens could feel despair creeping in.Da: "Vi finder det nok ikke," mumlede han, mens han så sig omkring i parken, hvor lysene nu blinkede som stjerner.En: "We probably won't find it," he mumbled, as he looked around the park where the lights now twinkled like stars.Da: Signe rettede lidt på sit halstørklæde og mærkede noget usædvanligt ved kanten.En: Signe adjusted her scarf a bit and felt something unusual at the edge.Da: "Hvad er det her?"En: "What's this?"Da: udbrød hun glædestrålende og trak en lille pose frem.En: she exclaimed joyfully and pulled out a small pouch.Da: Det var ringen!En: It was the ring!Da: Jens blev stille forbløffet, men rejste sig op, faldt ned på det ene knæ og tog posen fra hende.En: Jens was momentarily stunned but got up, dropped to one knee, and took the pouch from her.Da: Han åbnede den og fremviste ringen.En: He opened it and presented the ring.Da: "Signe, jeg ville spørge, om du vil gifte dig med mig?"En: "Signe, I wanted to ask if you would marry me?"Da: Øjeblikkets ufuldkommenhed synes at gøre det endnu mere perfekt.En: The imperfection of the moment seemed to make it even more perfect.Da: Blandt de smukke tulipaner og de glitrende lys bøjede Signe sig ned og omfavnede Jens.En: Among the beautiful tulips and the glittering lights, Signe bent down and embraced Jens.Da: "Ja!"En: "Yes!"Da: svarede hun med tårerne trillende ned ad kinderne, fyldt med glæde og kærlighed.En: she replied with tears streaming down her cheeks, filled with joy and love.Da: De stod der, længe nok til at mærke det magiske ved øjeblikket.En: They stood there long enough to feel the magic of the moment.Da: Jens lært, at selv de skæve øjeblikke kunne føre til den mest perfekte slutning.En: Jens learned that even awkward moments could lead to the most perfect

We're talking about a universal struggle: losing your car in a parking lot. Zweli shares a hilarious story about searching for a car in a basement parking lot with his colleague, Producer DX. They even called the people who drive the cars every day, only to find out the cars were moved to a different building. This got us thinking about the times we've all been there - pacing around a parking lot, wondering if our car is stolen or if we're just going crazy. We're joined by listeners who share their own stories of car-related anxiety, from walking around Africa for 45 minutes to reporting a car stolen after a night out.

Are you running from God — or wondering if He still wants you back? In Week 2 of Come to Jesus, Pastor John S. Dickerson walks through Luke 15 and the powerful stories of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son. When religious leaders criticized Jesus for welcoming sinners, He responded with a story that changes everything. A shepherd searches for one lost sheep. A woman sweeps her house for one lost coin. A father runs to embrace a rebellious son. Why? Because what is lost is valuable. In this message, you’ll discover: How God truly feels about you Why heaven rejoices over one sinner who repents What it means that the Father ran How Jesus came to seek and save the lost No matter how far you’ve wandered, your Creator would rather leave heaven and suffer to reach you than be comfortable without you. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve gone too far, this message is for you.

A parable is defined as an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. And the parable of the prodigal son found in Luke 15 may be one of the most famous parables in Scripture.

Some things we buy out of want. Other things we buy out of necessity. In this week’s message we step into the moment when Jesus intentionally walks into uncomfortable territory and meets a woman who came looking for water—but discovered something far greater. In John 4, we see what happens when Jesus crosses barriers, exposes what’s really going on in a heart, and offers living water to someone who did not expect it. Together we’ll ask three simple but powerful questions: What have you lost? What have you found? And what will you do now? The disciples lose their comfort and discover a harvest. A woman loses her old thirst and finds the truth. An entire community loses its separation and finds the Savior of the world. This moment is about more than a story from Scripture—it’s an invitation to recognize what Jesus may be helping you lose and find in your own life, and how your story might point someone else to Him. Join us at 8 or 11am for a worship service this weekend at Mitchell Berean! - Pastor Ben Key Verse - John 4:10 (NIV) - "Jesus answered her, 'If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.'” For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49559551

Janice Page thinks of life like water. It flows, and you find yourself in situations you never could have imagined. In her new memoir, The Year of the Water Horse, Janice draws a complex love story across cultures, biology, and oceans. The story starts in whitebread Massachusetts and ends in rural China for the adoption of her baby girl. This week on Say More, Janice rings in the Lunar New Year with host Shirley Leung.

verda.En: Marcel wore a tiger mask, Laia sported a shiny hat, and Gemma wore a green cape.Ca: Els tres miraven al seu voltant, envoltats per frondosos xiprers que amagaven racons incògnits.En: The three looked around, surrounded by lush cypress trees hiding unknown corners.Ca: “M'agradaria liderar el grup avui,” va anunciar Marcel, amb una veu que oscil·lava entre entusiasme i timidesa.En: "I'd like to lead the group today," Marcel announced, with a voice oscillating between enthusiasm and shyness.Ca: Laia va respondre amb un somriure valent.En: Laia responded with a brave smile.Ca: “Perfecte, estic preparada per l'aventura!En: "Perfect, I'm ready for the adventure!"Ca: ” Gemma, menys segura però intentant adaptar-se, va assentir.En: Gemma, less confident but trying to adapt, nodded.Ca: Amb pas decidit, Marcel va guiar el petit grup cap a l'entrada del laberint.En: With a determined step, Marcel led the small group towards the entrance of the labyrinth.Ca: Els arbusts eren alts, i l'olor de terra humida impregnava l'aire, donant al lloc una sensació de conte de fades.En: The bushes were tall, and the smell of damp earth filled the air, giving the place a fairytale-like feel.Ca: Al principi, Marcel recordava vagament els girs del camí d'una visita anterior, i això l'omplia de confiança.En: At first, Marcel vaguely remembered the twists of the path from a previous visit, which filled him with confidence.Ca: “Per aquí!En: "This way!"Ca: ” va cridar, assenyalant cap a una bifurcació més a la dreta.En: he shouted, pointing toward a fork to the right.Ca: Els seus passos ferms es van anar afeblint mentre el laberint es feia cada vegada més complicat.En: His firm steps weakened as the maze became increasingly more complicated.Ca: Al punt on els arbusts semblaven com murs verds inamovibles, es van adonar que s'havien allunyat del grup.En: At the point where the bushes seemed like immovable green walls, they realized they had strayed from the group.Ca: Les veus alegres dels companys de classe es perdien a la distància.En: The cheerful voices of their classmates faded into the distance.Ca: Laia va escrutar Marcel amb preocupació.En: Laia scrutinized Marcel

was reborn even stronger.Ca: “Sempre podem mirar la guia, però.En: "We can always look at the guide, but...Ca: crec que podria trobar una sortida secreta.En: I think I might find a secret exit."Ca: ”El cel començava a enfosquir-se i una boirina misteriosa es filtrava pel laberint.En: The sky began to darken, and a mysterious mist filtered through the labyrinth.Ca: Era l'hora de confiar en el seu instint o recular i admetre el descobert.En: It was time to trust his instinct or retreat and admit defeat.Ca: Amb una energia renovada, Marcel va seguir l'impuls del seu cor.En: With renewed energy, Marcel followed his heart's impulse.Ca: “Venim, per aquí,” va dir, amb més convicció.En: "Come on, this way," he said, with more conviction.Ca: Els passos s'enfonsaven suaument en el terra estovat de la tarda.En: Their steps sank softly into the dampened afternoon ground.Ca: Finalment, en un racó remot, van trobar aquella sortida latent que Marcel havia imaginat.En: Finally, in a remote corner, they found that hidden exit Marcel had envisioned.Ca: Les llums de l'exterior del laberint brillaven com estrelles benvingudes.En: The lights outside the labyrinth shone like welcoming stars.Ca: Creuaren la sortida amb un respir d'alleujament.En: They crossed the exit with a sigh of relief.Ca: Al veure'ls sortir, els professors i companys van respirar tranquils.En: Seeing them emerge, the teachers and classmates breathed a sigh of relief.Ca: “Ho heu aconseguit!En: "You did it!"Ca: ” va exclamar un dels professors amb alegria.En: exclaimed one of the teachers with joy.Ca: La reputació de Marcel va créixer com el seu somriure.En: Marcel's reputation grew along with his smile.Ca: Laia i Gemma el van felicitar, i Marcel va descobrir que qui guia no necessita parlar fort per liderar.En: Laia and Gemma congratulated him, and Marcel discovered that a leader doesn't need to speak loudly to lead.Ca: El laberint havia estat una prova, però ell se n'havia sortit.En: The labyrinth had been a test, but he had succeeded.Ca: El silenci que tanta gent veia com una debilitat, l'havia fet fort.En: The silence that many saw as a weakness had made him strong.Ca: Una festa a l'aire lliure rebia els estudiants.En: An outdoor party awaited the students.Ca: El Carnaval continuava amb esplendor, i Marcel s'hi va sumar, sabent que havia trobat la seva pròpia veu.En: The Carnaval continued with splendor, and Marcel joined in, knowing he had found his own voice.

Transcript:Nl: Bastiaan stond aan de rand van het Oisterwijkse bos.En: Bastiaan stood at the edge of the Oisterwijkse forest.Nl: De lucht was helder en de grond was bedekt met een dunne laag sneeuw.En: The sky was clear, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of snow.Nl: Zijn adem wolkte voor hem in de koude lucht.En: His breath puffed in front of him in the cold air.Nl: Hij was niet alleen; zijn hond, Eline, liep vrolijk naast hem.En: He wasn't alone; his dog, Eline, walked happily beside him.Nl: Jasper, zijn beste vriend, slenterde een paar passen achter hen.En: Jasper, his best friend, strolled a few steps behind them.Nl: “Ik heb iets vreemds gezien,” zei Jasper plotseling.En: “I saw something strange,” Jasper said suddenly.Nl: Zijn stem droeg ver in de stille lucht.En: His voice carried far in the quiet air.Nl: Bastiaan keek om en zag dat Jasper naar de grond wees.En: Bastiaan looked back and saw that Jasper was pointing at the ground.Nl: Daar in de sneeuw stonden vreemde, grote voetafdrukken.En: There in the snow were strange, large footprints.Nl: Ze leken niet op de afdruk van een mens of een dier zoals ze die kenden.En: They didn't look like the print of a human or an animal like they knew.Nl: Bastiaan voelde zijn hart sneller kloppen van opwinding en nieuwsgierigheid.En: Bastiaan felt his heart beat faster with excitement and curiosity.Nl: “Laten we volgen!” zei Bastiaan vastberaden.En: “Let's follow!” Bastiaan said determinedly.Nl: Eline blafte instemmend.En: Eline barked in agreement.Nl: Jasper trok zijn wenkbrauwen op.En: Jasper raised his eyebrows.Nl: “Ben je zeker?En: “Are you sure?Nl: Het deel daar is dicht en moeilijk begaanbaar.” Bastiaan knikte.En: That area is dense and hard to navigate.” Bastiaan nodded.Nl: “Ja, ik wil weten waar deze heen leiden.En: “Yes, I want to know where these lead.Nl: Het zal goed voor me zijn.” Hij keek naar de bomen die hun geheimen fluisterden.En: It will be good for me.” He looked at the trees that whispered their secrets.Nl: De laatste tijd voelde hij zich verloren, alsof iets belangrijks ontbrak na het verlies van een dierbare.En: Lately, he had felt lost, as if something important was missing after the loss of a loved one.Nl: Misschien zou dit avontuur hem een nieuw doel geven.En: Maybe this adventure would give him a new purpose.Nl: Ze begonnen de sporen te volgen.En: They began to follow the tracks.Nl: De bomen stonden als stille wachters om hen heen, hun schaduwen lang en donker.En: The trees stood like silent sentinels around them, their shadows long and dark.Nl: Adelaarszweefden hoog boven hen, alsof ze toekeken wat er zou gebeuren.En: Eagles soared high above, as if watching to see what would happen.Nl: Het pad werd steeds moeilijker.En: The path became increasingly difficult.Nl: Takken krasten aan hun jassen en de sneeuw maakte het glibberig en zwaar.En: Branches scratched their jackets, and the snow made it slippery and heavy.Nl: Bastiaan voelde momenten van twijfel.En: Bastiaan felt moments of doubt.Nl: Was hij dom bezig, dit te doen?En: Was he foolish to do this?Nl: Toch dreef iets in hem hem voort.En: Yet something inside him urged him forward.Nl: Eline snuffelde nieuwsgierig en sprong over omgevallen takken.En: Eline sniffed curiously and leaped over fallen branches.Nl: Jasper bleef dicht bij Bastiaan, ondanks zijn aarzeling.En: Jasper stayed close to Bastiaan, despite his hesitation.Nl: Na een lange tocht door de dichtbegroeide stukken van het bos, bereikten ze een onverwachte open plek.En: After a long trek through the densely wooded parts of the forest, they reached an unexpected clearing.Nl: De voetafdrukken stopten abrupt.En: The footprints stopped abruptly.Nl: Daar stond een oude houten schuur, versierd met sneeuw, verborgen tussen de bomen.En: There was an old wooden shed, decorated with snow, hidden among the trees.Nl: Bastiaan voelde zijn hart sneller slaan.En: Bastiaan felt his heart race.Nl: Hij liep naar de deur en opende deze voorzichtig.En: He walked to the door and opened it carefully.Nl: Binnen was het donker en muf.En: Inside, it was dark and musty.Nl: Het rook naar oud hout en stof.En: It smelled of old wood and dust.Nl: Zijn ogen wennen langzaam aan het grauwe licht.En: His eyes slowly adjusted to the dull light.Nl: In een hoek vond hij een oude stoffige kist.En: In a corner, he found an old dusty chest.Nl: Hij opende deze en vond een vergeelde journal.En: He opened it and found a yellowed journal.Nl: Terwijl hij erin bladerde, las hij over een oude houthakker die hier ooit leefde.En: As he flipped through it, he read about an old woodcutter who once lived here.Nl: De voetstappen waren van een erfgenaam die onlangs naar antwoorden zocht over zijn oorsprong.En: The footsteps were of an heir who had recently sought answers about his origins.Nl: Bastiaan ging zitten.En: Bastiaan sat down.Nl: Hij voelde zich vredig.En: He felt at peace.Nl: De verhalen in het dagboek boden hem inzicht en de voetafdrukken leidden hem niet alleen naar een mysterie, maar ook naar een nieuw gevoel van waardering voor het onbekende.En: The stories in the journal offered him insight, and the footprints had led him not only to a mystery but also to a new sense of appreciation for the unknown.Nl: Terwijl ze teruggingen, sprak Bastiaan zachtjes tot Eline en Jasper.En: As they returned, Bastiaan spoke softly to Eline and Jasper.Nl: “Soms moet je gewoon het avontuur volgen,” zei hij met een glimlach.En: “Sometimes you just have to follow the adventure,” he said with a smile.Nl: Zijn hart was lichter, gevuld met een gevoel van ontdekking.En: His heart was lighter, filled with a sense of discovery.Nl: Het bos was stil en mooi, mysterieus en kalm.En: The forest was quiet and beautiful, mysterious and calm.Nl: Bastiaan keerde naar huis, klaar om zijn eigen leven onder ogen te zien, verrijkt door het avontuur in het winterbos.En: Bastiaan returned home, ready to face his own life, enriched by the adventure in the winter forest.

Join us with Pastor Chad Benson in our series titled Lost and Found as we dive into Part 2: The Older Brother.

This week's book is Libby Lost & Found, by Stephanie Booth, about Libby Weeks, the reclusive author of the hit fantasy series “The Falling Children”, who faces a crisis when she is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's and struggles to complete her overdue manuscript. In desperation, she enlists the help of eleven-year-old superfan Peanut Bixton, who knows the series inside and out but has her own hidden troubles. As Libby grapples with her diagnosis, Peanut and her family work to protect and help her save herself and the series.My guest this week is Kendall Concini-Moore. Kendall‘s greatest adventure began not on the page, but at home, as a mother. Her book Mom's Cloud and the Beach Adventure was inspired by her own family and her struggles with depression, or her “cloud.” With empathy and playful hearts, her family encourages her to rest, reminding her that it's okay to not be okay, because clouds don't last forever. Complete with discussion questions and resources, this picture book gives children ages 4-8 the language to understand when someone they love is struggling, while celebrating that sometimes, simply being together is the most caring thing. You can find out more about her and her book on her website, https://cloudydaychronicles.org/, through her Substack where she shares resources: cloudydaychronicles.substack.com/ and on social media @cloudydaychronicles.Kendall curated our drink this week: A Black Manhattan with a coffee twist, listen to the episode to learn how this was inspired by the book and what author Stephanie Booth thought Libby's favorite drink would be!Ingredients2 oz rye whiskey (or bourbon if you want it softer)1 oz Amaro¼ oz coffee liqueur (just a pinch—enough to deepen, not dominate)2-3 dashes orange bitters (optional but rounds it out)Luxardo cherry or orange twist for garnishDirectionsAdd rye (or bourbon), amaro, coffee liqueur, and bitters to a mixing glass.Fill with ice and stir vigorously for 20–30 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.Strain into a chilled coupe (for up) or an old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube (for on the rocks).Garnish with a Luxardo cherry or a long orange twist.

Join us with Pastor Chad Benson in a brand new series titled Lost and Found as we dive in Luke 15 and the parable of the prodigal son.

In this episode of Now I Get It, I take a hard, compassionate look at one of the most tragic patterns I see in relationships: what I call the death spiral. It's the painful process where two people genuinely love each other, yet slowly drift apart—not because love is gone, but because it's never truly felt. I explain how our personalities shape the way we give and receive love, and why so many couples unknowingly miss each other despite constant effort.I walk through how this spiral begins with good intentions, escalates through frustration and withdrawal, and often ends quietly—when the fighting stops and hope fades. But this episode isn't about blame or despair. It's about awareness and repair. By understanding personality-driven love expressions and learning to recognize what truly resonates with your partner, it's possible to reverse the cycle, rebuild connection, and restore the mutual affection that brought you together in the first place.In this episode, you will learn:(00:00) Why loving someone deeply isn't enough to sustain a relationship(01:10) How personality shapes the way we give and receive love(02:17) Why both partners often feel they're giving more than they get(03:15) How “trying harder” can accelerate relational breakdown(04:00) The stages of the relationship death spiral—from criticism to silence(05:11) How understanding love languages tied to personality can reverse the spiral(05:45) How mutual appreciation and attraction can be restored over timeLet's connect!linktr.ee/drprandy Hosted on Acast.

Story Transcript:Da: Snefnug gled stille ned fra himlen.En: Snowflakes floated silently down from the sky.Da: Tivoli Gardens i København var dækket af et tykt lag sne, der gjorde stedet både magisk og stille.En: Tivoli Gardens in København was covered with a thick layer of snow, making the place both magical and quiet.Da: Mikkel, Sofie og Jens havde besluttet sig for at tage en tur gennem haven.En: Mikkel, Sofie, and Jens had decided to take a walk through the gardens.Da: Det var lige efter nytåret, og de ville nyde de smukke vinterlandskaber og de glitrende lys, der kæmpede for at trænge igennem sneens tæppe.En: It was just after New Year's, and they wanted to enjoy the beautiful winter landscapes and the sparkling lights struggling to pierce through the snow's blanket.Da: Mikkel, altid nysgerrig, ledte gruppen.En: Mikkel, always curious, led the group.Da: Han pegede ivrigt på hver afkrog af haven, mens Sofie, hans praktiske søster, knipsede billeder af snefnuggene, der landede yndefuldt i hendes hånd.En: He eagerly pointed out every nook of the garden while Sofie, his practical sister, snapped photos of the snowflakes gracefully landing in her hand.Da: Jens, der holdt sig lidt i baggrunden, smilede for sig selv og holdt øje med sine venner.En: Jens, who kept a bit in the background, smiled to himself and watched over his friends.Da: Men pludselig blev den rolige dag afbrudt.En: But suddenly, the peaceful day was interrupted.Da: Sneen faldt tungere, og en voldsom snestorm tog til.En: The snow fell heavier, and a violent snowstorm picked up.Da: I det kaos forsvandt Sofie pludselig fra Mikkel og Jens' synsfelt.En: In the chaos, Sofie suddenly vanished from Mikkel and Jens' view.Da: "Hvor er Sofie?"En: "Where is Sofie?"Da: råbte Mikkel fortvivlet, idet han kiggede rundt i det hvide landskab.En: Mikkel shouted in despair, looking around in the white landscape.Da: Hans hjerte bankede hårdt, og en frygt for at miste hende voksede indeni ham.En: His heart pounded, and a fear of losing her grew inside him.Da: Mikkel vidste, at han måtte finde sin søster.En: Mikkel knew he had to find his sister.Da: Med Jens ved sin side kæmpede han sig igennem den tætte sne.En: With Jens by his side, he fought his way through the thick snow.Da: "Vi må finde tegn," sagde Jens, altid knivskarp og opmærksom.En: "We must find signs," said Jens, always sharp and attentive.Da: Han opdagede en række spor, der førte væk fra stien.En: He spotted a trail of footprints leading away from the path.Da: Det var Sofies små skoaftryk.En: They were Sofie's small shoe prints.Da: De fulgte disse spor, indtil de stod foran en stor port, som de aldrig havde set før.En: They followed these prints until they stood in front of a large gate they had never seen before.Da: Selvom det gav Mikkel en snurrende følelse i maven, besluttede han at gå videre.En: Although it gave Mikkel a nervous feeling in his stomach, he decided to go on.Da: Jens nikkede opmuntrende.En: Jens nodded encouragingly.Da: Sammen åbnede de porten og trådte ind i hemmeligheden bag.En: Together they opened the gate and stepped into the secret behind it.Da: Inde bag porten fandt de en skjult passage.En: Behind the gate, they found a hidden passage.Da: Det var mørkt, men sporene fortsatte.En: It was dark, but the tracks continued.Da: Mikkel trak vejret dybt.En: Mikkel took a deep breath.Da: Hans beslutning om at fortsætte, trods frygten, gav ham en ny styrke.En: His decision to keep going, despite the fear, gave him newfound strength.Da: Med Jens' trofaste ledsagelse bevægede de sig fremad.En: With Jens' faithful companionship, they moved forward.Da: Endelig, i slutningen af passagen, fandt de Sofie.En: Finally, at the end of the passage, they found Sofie.Da: Hun stod der, fanget i en lille hule, men heldigvis uskadt.En: She stood there, trapped in a small cave, but fortunately unharmed.Da: "Jeg gled væk i stormen," forklarede hun med en lettet stemme.En: "I slipped away in the storm," she explained with a relieved voice.Da: Mikkel følte en boblende glæde indeni.En: Mikkel felt a bubbling joy inside.Da: Han havde fundet hende, trods sin frygt.En: He had found her, despite his fear.Da: På vej tilbage gennem Tivoli Gardens følte Mikkel sig ændret.En: On the way back through Tivoli Gardens, Mikkel felt changed.Da: Han forstod nu vigtigheden af at have venner som Jens, der kunne støtte ham, og han lærte, at han kunne overvinde sin frygt.En: He now understood the importance of having friends like Jens, who could support him, and he learned that he could overcome his fear.Da: Sneen dryssede stadig over haverne, men inden i Mikkel skinnede en ny selvtillid.En: The snow still dusted over the gardens, but inside Mikkel, a new confidence shone.Da: Da de forlod haven, så de alle op mod den stille nattehimmel.En: As they left the garden, they all looked up at the quiet night sky.Da: Det var en oplevelse, de aldrig ville glemme.En: It was an experience they would never forget.
