No wonder Jesus liked children. Their naivety allows questions that carry no inhibition. I was telling our children the story about David finding Saul in a cave and he... “pulls out his big sword and slices his head off...” interrupted our seven-year-old. “No, no,” I responded. “Do you know what happens?” I asked with no response. “Most of us would take advantage of the moment especially because Saul was chasing David so he could kill him. But David doesn’t do that. He only cuts off a piece of the king’s cloak and leaves him to his dreaming.”
culturing your culture
Go to the website of any major Christian publisher and search for books on “culture”. What you receive is a virtual Noah’s flood of materials. We’ll use IVP as our example since the book touted in this piece hails from their hands, but any of them - Zondervan, Tyndale, Eerdmans, Baker - have warehouses of titles.
