In this episode I start with a brief history of the problem that Sunday Schools were first trying to solve. I then spend time considering how the 17th Century challenges are not the same as ours, which then raises the question of what Children's Ministries exist for in 21st Century Australia.  I mention Charlotte Mason, Vol.2 Parents and Children p.92-100. To see other things I've written about kids in church, see articles #29-35 from the Light Duties series. 

Sarah Boyd's book "Turn Down the Noise" addresses the neural breakdown that happens when we are overwhelmed, distracted, and depleting our pre-frontal cortex. It is an incredible conversation between Jennifer and Sarah about the limitations of our brain, the costs of devices on parents and children, the importance of rest, and 5 principles to reverse degenerating attention span, reduce distraction, and restore mental peace.  Sarah presents the overwhelm inherent in modern life as the missing piece when we are examining dysfunction in our life that maybe counselling, better food, or more sleep isn't fixing. Also, the future needs children who are imaginative and creative, and these are skills that are developed in space and quiet not through reams of work and activities.  Episode sponsored by the Peaceful Press!

This week on The Literary Life, we bring you an episode from deep in the archives in which Cindy and Angelina discussed Katherine Mansfield's short story “The Garden Party.” After a great chat over their commonplace quotes, Angelina and Cindy dig into this week's story. They start with how Cindy found this story and the connections she was making to Little Women. Angelina gives a brief biographical sketch of Katherine Mansfield and highlights how Mansfield's own illness and death give us insight into how she deals with death in this story. Angelina walks us through how she looks at the use of figurative language and images, such as the Garden of Eden. They also touch on “The Garden Party” having the same structure of moving toward a moment of epiphany that we saw in “Araby.”  Cindy brings up the disconnect between the world of the women at home and the working people outside the home, as well as between the classes in this story. They talk about the importance of Laura's new hat as a symbol of one type of person she can become. Another image that Angelina and Cindy take a look at is the descent from the garden into darkness. They discuss the parallels from the beginning of the story and the end of the story, as well as Laura's movement from innocence to experience, from blindness to sight.

Ian Morgan Cron, author of Chasing Francis and Jesus, My Father, the CIA and Me, joins Jennifer Pepito to discuss his newest book The Fix. It is a beautiful book about healing addictions and the spiritual growth that can be found through the 12 step program.  So often in Christian culture, we are quick to categorise addictions as the painfully obvious like alcohol, porn, food addictions, anger, but co-dependency on our spouses or our children, addiction to control, addiction to negative thinking, to complaining are also addictions. All of these can shroud our lives in a grey weightiness, damage our relationships, and steal our joy. The Fix which dives into the 12 steps and how, when we start with laying our burden at the feet of Jesus and admit we cannot carry it all, we can begin to heal.

Emily Wilson Hussem, author of Sincerely, Stoneheart, joins Jennifer Pepito to talk about the lies plaguing women, why it matters that we carve out quiet time, protect our mothering time from distractions, and learn to walk in the truth of what God says about you.  As women, we have beautiful, fertile imaginations, and it is what allows us to see our children as future doctors, creators, homesteaders, and lovers of God. The downside of the imagination is that it makes us more susceptible to believing lies and meditating on fearful things. Emily and Jennifer both share their story with fear and the ways they are pursuing the truth of what God says about who they are, and allowing His Words to define their thoughts and feelings rather than the enemy.  Episode sponsored by the Peaceful Press!
