Let's Talk About Faith

Whenever we went on a road trip when I was a child my mom would pull out a list of questions. Between Houston and Dallas I learned that the Godfather was my dad's all-time favorite movie and by the time we got to Tulsa I knew that my little brother would rather eat lima beans than any other vegetable (YUCK!) We made fun of mom and her questions but they are now some of our best memories. So this summer I encourage you to strap your kids into their seatbelts and start asking some questions. Throw in a few like "If Jesus was having a meal at our house tonight, what would you serve?" or "Name the place you feel closest to God." You may get a few eye-rolls, but you will also get some answers that make talking about faith part of the rhythm of every day life.
