Do you have questions about theology, the Bible, or the church that you’re too afraid to ask? Tired of pastors and scholars using unfamiliar language or overly complicated explanations? Curiously, Kaitlyn is a weekly podcast hosted by author and theologian Kaitlyn Schiess that tries to make theology accessible, meaningful, and fun. Each week, you’ll hear a kid ask a theology question–sometimes serious, sometimes silly–and Kaitlyn will interview a scholar to help answer it (without all the academic jargon). Together, Kaitlyn and her guest discover that this one simple question opens up big theological ideas that can impact our lives, shape our view of God, and understand Scripture in a new way. Whether you're reminiscing about your own childhood curiosities or simply seeking a refreshing take on faith, tune in and rediscover the joy of learning with "Curiously Kaitlyn.”

How is God everywhere, and why can’t we see him?
This week theologian Beth Felker Jones joins Kaitlyn to answer a question most of us have probably wondered about: Is God everywhere? And if God is everywhere, why can’t we see God? Dr. Jones explains how God is different from everything God made, how we really will see God “face to face” one day, and how we actually can see God now. Plus, our first “Greatest Moments in Sunday School History” segment!

Were Adam and Eve babies? How would they know how to get babies out?
Kaitlyn is joined by biblical scholar Dru Johnson this week to answer some very practical questions about Adam and Eve: were they created as babies or adults? How did they know about babies? How would Eve have even known she was pregnant? Along the way, we’ll discuss how to read confusing biblical texts, how to ask good questions of the Bible, and why Genesis is so concerned with procreation.

Why do humans not have superpowers?
Kaitlyn is joined by theologian Christa McKirland to answer this week’s question, “Why do humans not have superpowers? I’d like to fly.” This might sound like a silly question, but it opens up a whole bunch of important theological ideas: why humans were made as dependent creatures, what the “image of God” really means, and what our resurrected bodies will be like. Plus, Christa argues that we actually do have superpowers! (What are they? You’ll have to listen to find out.)

Why Aren't Humans Perfect?
Kaitlyn sits down with Dr. Daniel Hill to answer this week's question, "How come no one is perfect and how was Jesus perfect, even though humans are not supposed to be perfect?" It may seem obvious that of course humans aren't supposed to be perfect, but what are we missing when we define our humanity by our sinfulness? What if there is more to the story? What does it actually mean to be truly human?

Customer Reviews
Kaitlyn jumps right into the questions that we are to adult to ask
Kaitlyn lays open the inner thinking of theology and deals with questions that we want answers to, questions we adults are too adult to ask.
Curiosity isn’t just for kids!
I appreciate this podcast! I think it’s really important for us humans, even when we think we know something, to be able to explain it so a kid (or a newbie) could understand. So far the guests I’ve heard on here have been helpful in that regard - quite knowledgeable yet making the ideas and terms approachable. Stay curious, friends!
For the child in every adult
Ingenious podcast in the format of questions asked by curious children that adults can truly learn the answers to as well. Kaitlyn started on The Holypost and I’ve followed her there as well as through her books. Her love of children and their innate curiosity plus her deep enjoyment of learning & teaching are the perfect pairing for Curiously Kaitlyn.
