One of the Christmas gifts we got for Méabh this past year was the Action Bible. Liz and I have both been amazed with how much she reads it. And she asks such good question too.

This morning we spent some time watching videos from the Bible Project with her. Now they are probably a bit over her head…but after each one we watched, we’d ask her some questions and she did quite well.

I had a couple thoughts while seeing them. First I’m thankful for some of the resources that are out there, that weren’t our first time around raising kids.

May 16, 2023

This is the fourth post in a series I’ve been writing on Christendom. The previous ones (here, here and here) were to lay some groundwork as I move into the main idea I want to dig into: the damage done to the church by aligning with the Roman Empire and,...
