Nine-year-old svithe

.

Middle Son surprised me by standing today to bear his testimony. I'm not sure about his exigesis, but it was a nice and well spoken bit of wordery and here's a rough transcription:
The scriptures are like Jonah and the Whale. he jumped in the water because he didn't believe in God then the whale saved him anyway and I think that's like the scriptures because you can not believe them and then you read them and see they're true anyway.

  1. Never thought of the whale as saving him. I'm sure a whole sermon could be preached on that.

    It's always good to defamiliarize the most familiar scripture stories.
