Since she&#8217;s occupied doing other things necessary for the continued operation of the household, I decided to read a book. But, not just any book, and not just to myself. I decided to read &#8220;The Biggest Story&#8221; by Kevin DeYoung, and read it out loud, recording it for my grandkids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I bought it almost five years ago and have been remiss in not reading it to them already. Please forgive me, kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, since I now have better technology than I did five years ago, and seem to have much more free time, here you go. I recorded and posted it on YouTube. I recommend that you buy your own copy, because once you hear it, you&#8217;ll want to read it again, and look closer at the beautiful illustrations by Don Clark. So <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2wUGIqb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here&#8217;s a link to Amazon<\/a>. If you click it and buy it, there&#8217;s a <em>slight<\/em> chance I&#8217;ll make a small, very small, commission from that sale. But that&#8217;s not why I&#8217;m doing this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen, and I hope, enjoy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"780\" height=\"439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v2cYoaUxxgY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"780\" height=\"439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/txVOdJE3iVw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do you do when you&#8217;re staying at home with minimal contact outside your lovely wife?
