I love this picture. Kids often mimic what they see adults do, but they don't always understand they why we do what we do. Most kids today know that when you pick up a phone, you're supposed to touch the screen and something is supposed to happen. They can't read, but they like to see the interaction.

The sad thing is, that there are a lot of people that are the same way with their Bible. If you hand them a Bible and ask them to explain to you what the Bible says about salvation, or who Jesus is - they may start flipping through the pages hoping to stumble across something, but honestly, it's a smaller subset of people that can truly do this.
