I would analyze the character of the boy in the story as wanting to believe, and seeking to to be save, and see Jesus. Several words I would describe him as a kid who is wanting to be accepted, but knows it is not his time yet he is ashamed of the fact that he lied, so he feels guilty, and disappointed. He is different by the end of the story because after church, and having everyone around him pray for him he could not sleep because he did not say the truth about him seeing Jesus, and it was something he was not okay with, and because he lied he did not know wether or not to believe if there was a Jesus anymore. I would say that he changed as in him accepting the fact that maybe it is not his time yet, and the time will come for him.

I would definitely describe him as a kid who wants to be accepted. The feeling of not being accepted by your family hurts the most. He was definitely pressured, and they left him no choice but to lie.
