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!

0:00.0 | Welcome to Curiously, Caitlin, a podcast where we try to make theology make sense. |
0:05.2 | I'm Caitlin Chess, and every week on this show, you will hear a kid's question about God, theology, or the Bible, |
0:11.6 | and then I'll talk with a scholar who will try to answer it. |

0:54.0 | thinking and living theologically. And fun doctrine, an introduction to thinking and living |
0:54.9 | theologically. And fun fact, she went to Duke. So let's hear our question for today. |
1:03.0 | People say, like, God is always with you. How does he, like, multiply? And, like, why are you not able |

1:20.6 | does God multiply? Or I think kind of underneath that question is, how is God everywhere? Is God |
1:25.8 | everywhere? That doesn't really make sense with, I mean, for a kid, |
