In this episode, The Rev. Aaron and Elizabeth Ross join us to discuss the Bible readings you'll hear this week during Bedtime Chapel. We met Aaron and Elizabeth at the consecration of Bishop Julia Whitworth in the Diocese of Massachusetts. Our shared need for childcare at the bishop's seating made us fast friends. And we've continued to bond over a love of the Enneagram and a desire to make church a place of welcome for young kids. Aaron is the curate at St. John the Evangelist, Duxbury. Elizabeth is a spiritual director and writer with an emphasis on noticing sacred light within the spiritual journey, creative practice, and family life.

Key moments in our conversation include:

• 00:30 How Forming Children in the Faith Changed You
• 03:33 Children and the Eucharist
• 08:03 Welcoming Children as Full Members of the Church
• 10:51 St. Joseph as Exemplar for Parents
• 14:59 Noticing the Incarnate God
• 20:28 John's Salvation Metaphors
