What Do Pastor’s Kids Actually Think About Faith? A Conversation with Solomon and Miriam
What does faith look like through the eyes of a child? In this special episode of the Together 4 Good podcast, Pastor Nate sits down with his kids, Miriam and Solomon (who is now twelve for the record), for a spontaneous conversation about church, Bible stories, confirmation, and what it’s like growing up in a pastor’s family. Along the way, they reflect on the feeding of the 5,000, favorite Bible stories, and the small everyday moments where faith shows up in family life.
It’s a joyful and honest conversation about Christian parenting, curiosity, and how children often see God’s love in ways adults sometimes miss.
