Episode 354: Helping Kids (And Grown-Ups) Grow in Friendship with Jesus with Sally Lloyd-Jones
from Raising Boys & Girls · host That Sounds Fun Network
In this deeply moving conversation, Sissy and David sit down with beloved children’s author Sally Lloyd-Jones to talk about her newest book, Jesus, Our True Friend. Sally shares how her own childhood—being sent to boarding school at eight and clinging to Jesus as her best friend—inspired her lifelong desire to help children know they are never alone. The conversation weaves through themes of perfectionism, grace, hope, and the tender story of Mary and Martha, reminding listeners that God is not disappointed in us—He is delighted in us. It’s a rich, honest, joy-filled episode about getting out of the way so the beauty of the gospel can shine through.
