This special episode features conversations with children from First Baptist Church, Athens, GA, ages 4 to 12. In August of 2021, on the opening night of our children’s choir and mission activities, we brought the children, two by two, into our “podcast studio” where each child was asked two questions: “What is your favorite Bible story?” And, “Who is a person, or character in the Bible that you like?” Their answers are featured on this podcast.
