If Jesus ran Sunday school, he would teach children about the parables. Perhaps he would just play with them and show them how much he loved them. He would not attempt to explain Christian theology. Theology would come out of an understanding of the connections between parables and experience, between God's character and our character. If you do not want to relearn Truth as an adult, learn to recognize it as a child. May our convictions simply become a connecting of the dots, a deepening of understanding, a path we continue to follow and discover because we recognize it as the true path, having never believed it was so because we had been simply told and persuaded.
