    Ep 263: Repenting Families and the Power of the Table with Trillia Newbell

    We had the privilege of speaking recently with the delight that is Trillia Newbell. Trillia is an author, a speaker, and editor and a mom of two amazing kids. Trillia’s books include Creative God, Colorful Us, a Bible Study on Hebrews 11, God’s Very Good Idea and more. Her newest release for grown-ups is a cookbook called Celebrating Around the Table and her newest book for kids is called 52 Weeks in the Word: Student Edition. You’re going to want to buy both of these and more! In this episode, Trillia talks about the power of the table and what it looks like to be a family of repentance. We have a feeling you’re going to love this episode and find Trillia just as delightful—and wise—as we do!  If you enjoyed this episode check out our Teaching Kids About Race playlist over on Spotify! . . . . .
