On this episode of The Disciple-Making Parent, we engage in a compelling conversation with Dan Darling about his book, "The Characters of Easter". We explore the surprising insights into the lives of Peter, John, Judas, Pilate, and other figures from the Easter story. We discuss how these real people with complex emotions and decisions bring depth to the biblical narrative. We also touch on the challenges and rewards of parenting, and how the sacrifices made by the parents of James and John provide a powerful example for modern families. Join us as we reflect on the transformative power of Easter and its characters, and the lessons we can learn from them today.  ----- If you're enjoying this podcast, don't forget to subscribe to our Family Discipleship email.
