Today may get more weird with frogs, locusts - with no honey, and fire.  Moses on the run as a fugitive, scared and dealing with his past.  Someone shows up to reignite his faith and purpose.  Today's story in the Bible is part two of a three part series of Moses. 

Every parent wants their child to have fun, learn, and grow more in the Bible. However, time is limited. Have you ever asked: “What can I do to grow my child’s faith?” “How can I connect with my child?” “What about the difficult topics of stress, loss, and anxiety?” This podcast connects laughter and the Bible. It provides starter questions at the end of every episode, a soft opening to begin those discussions. It resources parents ways to connect with their children where they are.

An interactive retelling of the greatest stories in the Bible.  Take a journey with your kids and benefit from the parenting next steps after each show. These are "Short" stories to be used anywhere; in the car, dinner table, bedtime or wherever you want, with me "Schertz."
