In this episode, we talk a bit about time from the perspective of a child. For children, time seems to work differently than for adults. Perhaps it is because it stretches out so far ahead of them or perhaps it is for another reason altogether,
Today, I'm chatting with author (and all around wise human) Mez Blume about one of her favorite stories..."The Princess and the Goblin." I ask her questions about George MacDonald tackles wonder and skepticism through his stories (especially th
We're back for another storytime with Sophie! This time, I explore the deeply true and profound themes found across all seven books of Harry Potter. We'll look at how Rowling deals with death, love, sacrifice, fate, and more...and ultimately, I
In this episode, we talk about mystery. Mystery has been something we, as a culture, have shied away from since the Enlightenment. However, mystery in the world is unavoidable. We simply can't understand everything. We argue that it's worthwhil
In this episode, we talk about friendship! We ask why friendship exists and is a good thing, what true friendship looks like (especially through the eyes of a child), and how friendship is intricately tied to hope. Friendship isn't easy, but it
In this episode, we talk about imagination. What is it? Why is it so important? How is it related to hope? If we struggle to imagine, how can we learn to imagine again? We know that children generally seem to have no lack of imagination, but ad
In this episode, we talk about nature and hope. Nature is a beautiful and wondrous thing, and it points us back in joy and delight to the Creator. The flowers, plants, streams, and mountains all praise their Maker with their own joyous song, an
In this first story-focused bonus episode, Sophie discusses "The Ickabog" by J. K. Rowling. "The Ickabog" is a deeply profound fairy tale that points to the power of false narratives (PR gone wrong!) and their far-reaching and devastating conse
In this episode, we talk about celebration. Celebration happens quite a lot in Scripture, but it's not as an important of a rhythm in a lot our lives today. There seems to be a disconnect here. God clearly prescribes celebration for His people,
We talk about hope a lot here, especially when it comes to the hope we have in the resurrection. But, we wanted to pause and talk about what genuine hope looks like, not just for the future, but in the here and now. Living a life of hope means
In this episode, we explore what it looks like to live a life of childlike wonder. We delve into what wonder is, how we cultivate it, and why it's so crucial for a hope-filled life. This world and everything in it (including our very lives) are
In this episode, we talk about what it means to be new. Our culture in general is obsessed with the new year, as if a new number on the calendar will change everything. We place our hope in fulfilling our new year's resolutions and end up tryin
In this episode, we talk about remembering and forgetting. We often find ourselves discouraged or fearful, even though we're in the hands of the living God, the Creator of everything. Why then do we lose hope? We believe it is because we, like
In this episode, we talk all about gratitude. What is the difference between it and thankfulness? Why ought we to have gratitude? Where does it come from? To whom ought we to be grateful? Why? And ultimately, how does this affect our lives? The
In this episode, we talk about the differences between disappointment and discouragement, namely, how disappointment is at times inevitable, but discouragement is always a choice. We discuss proper responses to disappointment and ways to avoid
In this episode, we talk about the power of story to reach into our hearts and radically change us, for good or for evil. We talk about how they can encourage us and give us hope, or how they can leave us feeling empty and hopeless. All good st
In this episode, we talk about the promise of a future resurrection and new earth where we will live with God himself for all of eternity. While many Christians seem stuck in the idea of a bodiless eternity "in the clouds," the Bible talks abou
In this episode, we explore what it looks like to live with a kingdom mindset. As followers of Jesus, we have been called to seek first the Kingdom of God.  Pursuing anything but the kingdom is at its core a hopeless endeavor, for nothing else
In this episode, we talk about how the “love yourself” movement isn’t actually loving at all. We can never love ourselves enough to be satisfied, but thankfully we can find hope in the fact that the God who knows both our good and our bad alrea
In this episode, we talk about what empathy is, why it's important, and how we can practically implement it. Since Jesus is an empathetic God, we, as his people, are likewise called to love our neighbors by rejoicing with them when they rejoice
In this episode, we talk about the classic children's story, "The Little Prince," written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. We explore how this simple story teaches us to look at the world like children, fill our hearts with wonder, utilize our imag
Welcome to Tikvah! As friends, we (Annie & Sophie) have had the opportunity to have lots of cool conversations about the Lord, the world, people, and everything else in between. While we enjoyed our discussions, we felt like there weren't many
