[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_wp_text text=”I’m always looking for ways to help my kids contextualize the gospel. I want to keep them thinking and dreaming, imagining and re-visioning.
Especially since they’re pastor’s kids.
I mean, I was a pastor’s kid, and it seems like all things Church-y and Jesus-y get extra boring extra fast when dad’s passion and dad’s job get thrown together in dad’s family.
Know what I mean?
Anyway, one of the things I’ve come to enjoy is re-imagining Bible stories with my kids’ toys. We act out the famous ones with Lego or Pokemon or Halo or whatever.
And last Christmas, we made a Transformers nativity comic book (and short film).
Hope you like them as much as we did. “][/vc_column][/vc_row]
