Jesus says that "anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." And yet we make our faith journey about maturity, collection of knowledge, mental assent, moving through the stages of faith. We are unable to live our faith with the wonder, awe, and imagination of a child. We are unable to view and approach God with this perspective and with this posture. But, what does it mean to live in this way?

Does it mean not learning and growing in our understanding of God...staying simple, naive, and immature? No, it is all about understanding our relationship to and with God. Understanding we are first and foremost His children and that we are in a relationship, not a fact gathering, learn all you can, knowledge-based interaction. What does our faith journey look like if we do this? And how can we continue to approach God in relationship with a child's lens while living constantly wooed by the kingdoms of this world? We'll explore these ideas.
