Discussing Theology With Ben and Emma

A couple weeks ago or so:

Mom and I are in the kitchen. Dinner is almost ready, and a few people are already seated at the table. This is what we hear.

*********

Ben (age 5): How come Jesus doesn't look like God?
Emma (age 8): Jesus IS God! Besides, no one knows what God looks like.
Ben: I know what He looks like!

(discussion continues for a minute or two until I hear:)

Emma (exasperated): Ben, God is in HEAVEN. People don't sit up there and sketch him!
