The Kingdom habitually undermines expectations and when good reasons go wrong

Ernst Gotsch

Tim and Joel engage in a wide-ranging and thoughtful chat on a wide variety of topics that includes, the Reformation, how we can make more space in our lives for God to make himself known, to discipling emotions, good reasons gone wrong and Tim's research paper.

Some questions to think about:
• God is gratuitous in his love and we must be attentive to it
• Which of how habits are helping us grow closer to God, or push him further away?
• How can we helpfully disciple the strong emotions of children?
• Does the way we do children's ministry show that we think they aren't ready to be Christians yet?
• How can our children imbibe the beliefs, patterns and practices of a Christian community?
