Ways to listen
There are a lot of stories in the Bible that aren’t really appropriate for kids. What do we do if the sermon or scripture passage is too much for kids to handle?
Dr. Bob Keeley shares his wisdom from decades of ministry and his love for the Bible with Lindsey & Ahyuwani as they think about how to navigate the tension of including children when it gets complicated.

I hope that there's some way that we can communicate to our kids how exciting it is to come upon this book that defines out lives and find new, exciting things in it over and over and over again.
