Random Theology

Debra Lynn had some weighty conversational topics for our mother daughter afternoon of shopping and sushi.
"Will Adam and Eve be in heaven?" she asked me, over her teriyaki steak. "They knew God, and taught their children about Him, but they died beford Jesus came." I let her talk through it while I tried to formulate some sort of response.
"I remember!"she then said. "Daddy told me they get to go to Moses' gizzard."
I almost spewed my mouthful of crunchy roll across the table.
"What?!" she had to know.
"I think you mean, Abraham's Bosom." I said.
She looked amused and suddenly self-conscious should my laughter draw looks from the hibachi customers.
After that, I couldn't shake the giggles long enough to unpack the issue further.
I'm sure we'll revisit it again. I'm glad she doesn't shy away from big questions.
