#52 The Shema for Life — Interview with Eric Schrotenboer
| Episode Guest: Eric Schrotenboer
Trip leader, artist and author Eric Schrotenboer returns to our podcast today so share his most recent project. He and his wife Meredith have created another great resource for children, Hear, O Little One! This unique board book features a flip design, two books in one, to help parents lead their children into a pattern of beginning and ending each day with the Lord. This story is an adaptation of the Shema, God's centerpiece prayer for his people from Deuteronomy 6:4-9: "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." Order Hear, O Little One wherever books are sold, including Amazon, Target, Walmart, and Barnes and Noble.
