This week on Culture Tuesday, I reflected on the joyful, unpredictable, and grace-filled world of Children’s Liturgy. Blending storytelling, song, and real-life moments from parish life, the episode explored how music and imagination help children encounter the Gospel in ways that are both meaningful and memorable.

I shared some of the creative ways we bring Scripture to life—through Godly Play, chants, and even a “Golden Box” full of symbols and surprises—and why these little moments matter. There was also a reminder from Bishop Patrick McKinney that will stay with me: Christ delights in the efforts parents make to bring their children to Mass, even on the most chaotic of Sundays.

This wasn’t a typical episode—it was a bit more spontaneous, more personal—but perhaps that’s fitting. After all, when it comes to passing on the faith, it’s often in the unscripted moments that we meet Jesus most clearly.
