I also found out according to the Official adventures in Odyssey Q and A podcast the episode titled Worth It is about Jesus healing a blind man, so I it most likely isn't about Emily, though it could be about her as well.

I think there are 3 possibilities of who got hurt in the artwork.
1. Emily
2. Matthew
3. Barrett
All of those are definitely possibilities. I agree that the injury would be the last straw for Emily and it probably would result in her losing her faith.
I'm really hoping that Matthew makes an appearance in this album. I agree that if it is him who gets hurt, it would be a way for Emily to lose her faith.
It would be interesting if it was Barrett. Might also be a way to give the character a send-off.

The group doing the history project was Emily, Zoe, and Olivia.
Zoe and Olivia are looking on in the 71 cover art.
Emily is missing...
(though I don't know why the three of them would be skiing)
Obviously for their history presentation! Their presentation is clearly about the history of skis, and they are going on this trip to study more!
Yeah, I have no idea either. I suppose they’re just skiing for fun.

Yeah, it might be about Emily. My question is how the story will be told in the episode. Will it be through the Imagination Station? Kids’ Radio? Or just Whit telling the story?
Jesus healed a lot of blind men. I suppose that in this episode the story of the man born blind will be the one from John 9, where the Pharisees investigate the man’s healing. That would be interesting to hear.
Edit: Just had a new thought. What if Emily's injury is not caused by falling off a ski lift, but by her falling down a slippery slope of snow? That would be interesting and might fit the album title better.

Maybe the Slippery Slope title is referring to the fact that it’s very easy to lose sight of our faith and slide downhill. Like it’s slippery or…. nvm
anyways. soooooo excited for new episode! Anyone else excited?

Good thought. This is also a possibility.
We now have the official summary for this album!
What I’m interested in is how the AIO Team will portray the loss of faith. It may result in the
“one saved, always saved” debate. I’m interested in seeing how they handle it, especially with any theological controversies.

Whooooo boy, I didn't even think of this. Yikes. That's going to be very sticky if they choose to address it. I'm not even sure where Focus lies on that issue. Even if Focus has an official viewpoint, it wouldn't surprise me if individual writers had differing opinions. If they touch on this, it will definitely be interesting. I'm in the "yes, you /can/ lose your salvation" camp, but it's a very complex issue. Christians can't just resort to throwing prooftexts without context at each other to supposedly prove their point (which unfortunately happens in most discussions from both sides). We'll see how this goes, but I wouldn't be surprised if they refused to touch this topic with a ten-foot pole.
