Interestingly enough, Nikki has a read-along Bible for kids on CD that she listens to, often on her own, and several of those Bible stories talk about killing, etc. It seemed ironic to me that I spend so much time trying to guard Nikki from that kind of content in other media, but hadn't really thought about having to be careful with the Bible too! :) A verse came to mind that has me thinking, about "correctly handling the Word of God". There are some things that she's not really equipped to "correctly" handle. And so, I'm hoping to go through some of those stories that she's already heard with her again so we can talk about them. This link is for an article that is from CCM (Contemporary Christian Music magazine) that is written by one of my favorite Christian artists, Nichole Nordeman. She's an amazing songwriter. She has a 3 year old son, and in this article she's talking about the challenge of reading Bible stories to them when they are this young. She has a great sense of of humour but wisdom as well. It kind of sums up what I'm talking about.
