Making Spiritual Lessons Memorable: "So my hope is that that's where I put a lot of effort in, is to tie in the experience that kids are going to learn throughout elementary school and high school back to a devotional or a spiritual concept that they can connect to."

Bridging Faith and Science for Kids: "And I believe that when we cement that idea and that concept in these little babies hearts, these toddlers hearts on your lap, around the bed before bed, at the kitchen table early, they are going to keep that, that's going to lock in and they're going to have that as they go through school."
