Mother/daughter team Elyse Fitzpatrick and Jessica Thompson tackle some of the bigger and tougher questions that children commonly ask about issues like sin, death, sexuality, and more. With personal examples from their own parental experience and with answers steeped in the Bible and focused on the redemptive work of Christ, readers are encouraged to face issues with children not as Bible experts, but as believers whose confidence rests in the Lord. We need not avoid hard questions or fear them. We can respond to children at various age levels in a way that not only deals with the question at hand but that also shows God's love for and sovereignty over our world. |
