Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Screens and Social Media: What Parents Should Know and Do (with Chris McKenna)
Q: You've got a new book coming out this year about five habits for protecting children online—can you summarize what those habits are?
The five habits start with modeling the right behaviors and pursuing authentic connection, then encourage work and play, delay addictive technologies, diligently prevent harm with layered protections, and build bridges of digital trust so kids feel safe coming to parents with questions or mistakes.
Supporting Children with Special Needs at Home, Church, and Beyond (with Jocyline Graham)
Q: Why does it matter that we minister well to children in general with special needs?
Because they are made in the image of God and deserve to hear the gospel; Jesus welcomed children regardless of societal labels, so ministry should reflect that inclusive stance and demonstrate that the church is a place for all.
Supporting Children with Special Needs at Home, Church, and Beyond (with Jocyline Graham)
Q: Can you give me more specific examples of what's considered under the umbrella of neurodiversity?
Autism and ADHD are the most commonly known conditions, but the umbrella also includes dyslexia, Down syndrome, sensory processing disorder, various intellectual disabilities, and some mental health diagnoses, all of which shape how a child engages with learning and community life.
How to Have a Family Passover Seder (With Dr. Christine Palmer)
Q: How should families handle responsibility and participation among young children during the meal?
Encourage even the youngest to participate by asking questions and involving them in simple tasks like setting the table or assisting with symbolic actions; the goal is to make every child feel valued and involved in the story.
How to Have a Family Passover Seder (With Dr. Christine Palmer)
Q: Is wine required for the Passover, or can grape juice be used for families with children?
Wine has traditionally been used, reflecting historical practice, but grape juice is an acceptable alternative for families who choose not to use alcohol; the key is to maintain the celebratory and storytelling nature of the meal.
