Curiously Kaitlyn

Ever looked around during worship and wondered why everyone suddenly has their hands in the air? Kaitlyn and producer Mike explore where this practice comes from, what the Bible actually says about worship, and why different churches express worship in such different ways. They also unpack the tension between emotional worship and thoughtful faith, and ask an important question: What if God cares more about the condition of your heart than the placement of your hands?

We know we are supposed to get baptized, but does it matter where it happens? Kaitlyn and Mike unpack what baptism actually is, why Christians do it, and why it's about more than just a personal moment. Where you're baptized might be less about the building and more about the people standing with you...but the building still matters!

Many of us cannot imagine Heaven without bacon. Concerns about meat in Heaven may seem silly, but they're actually really relevant. Kaitlyn unpacks our understanding of our relationship to food, the Garden of Eden, and the Resurrection. And Mike wonders if, perhaps, Heaven will be full of hamburger trees.

So, babies don't know very much. God knows everything. God became a baby. With all that in mind, did Baby Jesus know everything? Kaitlyn talks about Jesus being both a person and God at the same time and how confusing that can get!

Human beings are made in the image of God, so we should be first, right? The first are usually the most important. Why would God make us after all the animals and plants? Kaitlyn explains the theology behind Adam and Even being made after the Garden of Eden.
