Curiously Kaitlyn

Women are all over the Bible, but many of their stories rarely make it into sermons, Sunday school lessons, or children's Bibles. Kaitlyn sits down with Carmen Joy Imes and Nijay Gupta, authors of Fierce and Faithful, to talk about the women we overlook, the hard questions kids ask about Scripture, and why boys and girls alike need to hear these stories.

Dinosaurs, Adam and Eve, evolution, and the Bible can raise some big questions, especially for kids. Kaitlyn and Producer Mike talk about how Christians have tried to make sense of science and Scripture, and why helping kids ask good questions may be more important than having the perfect answer.

Producer Mike's son Oliver has a lot of questions about the Bible, so Kaitlyn sits down with him to talk through as many as they can. Why did God rest on the seventh day? How did an angel shut the lions' mouths? Why did God make us, and how has God always existed? Listen along to hear what it actually looks like to talk about the Bible with kids.

Why did the Pharisees clash so often with Jesus if they were genuinely trying to be faithful to God? Kaitlyn explains who the Pharisees actually were, why they saw Jesus as a threat, and why the familiar picture of them as self-righteous villains misses important context. She also explores what Jesus' harshest critiques were really about, why Christians should be careful about calling people "Pharisees" today, and what these conflicts teach us about faithfulness, power, and trying to do Jesus' job for him.
