I received a lot of good feedback from you guys. Thank you.
I have a better idea of how to field questions and facilitate conversations with Miles about salvation. This is huge, I don't want to get it wrong!
So today, during his prayer, he said, "And Jesus, thank you for dying in the cross for our sins. Amen"
I figured I would ask a few questions to see if he understood sin. Before I said a word, Miles says, "Sin is when you do something wrong. Maybe you tell someone you did something but you didn't tell the truth."
Then he said, "Jesus comes in and cleans your heart from sin when you ask him in."
Me: "how does He clean your heart?"
Miles: "With a hose."
Me: "Did He clean your heart with a hose?"
Miles: "Yes."
Me: "Nice"
Miles: "When I grow up, I want to be a Malloy!"
Me: "Son, you already are!"
That boy is amazing!! I'm a proud dad!
