Jaye Herrod Durkin is an elementary music teacher turned mommy and entrepreneur. She did graduate work in Intercultural Studies at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, but put her degree on hold to start a family with her husband, Matt. Their two toddlers, Charlie and Eden, keep Jaye busy, challenged, and entertained from sunup to sundown! Her toddlers antics are featured on her Facebook page daily, so if you need a good laugh, follow her!
It can be easier to help kids understand how Jesus is the same us - how He was born, was a child, and had all the experiences we have, but it's much more difficult to help kids understand how He is different - that He is God and He is sitting at the right hand of the Father today interceding for us.
In this episode, we talk about how we should speak truth in as bite-sized portion for our kids as possible, but not watering it down so that it has a different meaning. We want our kids to know what is true, even if it's hard to comprehend.
