Faith in Kids Faith in Parents #122 | In Conversation with Dr Krish Kandiah
Hear Dr Krish Kandiah talking about Moses' speech delay, Jesus' brown eyes and Amy's car boot full of Nutella. Something for everyone!
Krish has a big heart and this episode is full of stories of hope and grace. We whistle through adoption, fostering, disability, the global church and unaccompanied child refugees.
