God and me badge for scouts
So last night I started looking at the mentor book that I have to work through in order to help H work through the student workbook for this religious badge for cub scouts. This particular badge in one that he can carry over to boy scouts. Apparently this badge is a big deal. The book is called God and Me, and it says it was "created for Protestant and Independent Christian Churches for Children in grades 1-3". It's alot of praying for my child stuff and what I am thankful for, but the question that stumped me and got me thinking way more than I should about christianity and whether or not my beliefs line up was.....question #2 of section 2: Name some of the things that you hope the child will discover about Jesus as you work together on this study. My first thought was Jesus was non-judgemental, next thought was that Jesus loved all, and then for my third thought I wrote "he was not perfect". I have a feeling that many christians would not agree with me on that one, so I erased it and will have to come up with something else. But it really got me thinking about why I want Jesus to not be perfect.....
