🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Episode 34c

Title: God’s Not a Cupcake

Description:

Five minutes after Episode 34b, I’m in the car with the kids, and things take a turn—from hustle and restlessness to one of the most precious, spirit-filled family conversations. It starts with Noah saying, “God is not a cupcake,” and it launches into a whole ride of theology, forgiveness, deer-spotting, and trusting God’s timing. From Jesus’ resurrection to berry-eating deer, this episode captures what it’s like to disciple your kids in real time.

I talk about:

• Noah’s spontaneous line: “God is not a cupcake”
• Apologizing to my son for laughing at his insight
• Explaining Jesus’ death and resurrection to my kids
• Talking through how God still loves “baddies”
• Discussing what sin means and how to love enemies
• Teaching patience, miracles, and asking God to see deer

🧠 Core Takeaway:

Sometimes the deepest discipleship happens in the car with your kids—one cupcake comment at a time.
