This is an eclectic discussion about:

Answering the problem of evil (important for all Christians to understand),
The power of storytelling (why it points to the reality of God, and how important it is in parenting),
Finding truth in stories in a post-Christian world (and why the new Snow White Sucks), and
The parenting mistake of choosing self-esteem over courage

This is a fun and wide ranging conversation that will at the very least open up you up to thinking more deeply about the media you consume, the stories you tell your kids, and hopefully even strengthen your faith.
