Dr. Perry Downs reflects on how to answer little children's questions about God.

My wife, Sandy, and five-year-old daughter, Sarita, were driving to church one Sunday morning when Sarita asked, "Mom, does everyone go to church?" Sandy responded, "No, some people don't go to church." Sarita thought for a few minutes before asking, "But does God love everybody?" "Yes, he does," Sandy said, and then continued, "It is sad that God loves all people, but some people just don't love God back.
