Episode 97: Top 3 Spiritual Questions Kids Ask: #3 – “What happens after I die?”
Welcome to the third and final week of our June series covering the top 3 Spiritual Questions Kids Ask!
So far we’ve answered the questions “Where do I come from?” and “What’s my purpose?” Today Kori & Meredith will discuss “What happens after I die?” This question – along with everything we need for life and godly living – is answered in Scripture! We want you to be confident that you’re giving kids information that is true, helpful, and age appropriate!
