Summary
Nine-year-old Ellie Garcia was one of the nineteen children murdered at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas. In January, her father shared a photo of his daughter praying, and Ellie had posted her own video to TikTok reminding people that Jesus died for us. In The Daily Article for May 31, 2022, Dr. Jim Denison asks how we can raise more Ellie Garcias and points to Alan Noble's book, "You Are Not Your Own," as a "biblical and empowering" take on our current cultural moment.
