The first night I asked her if there was any story in the bible she specifically wanted to start reading with.
(That was the night for the request for the guy, the girl, and the snake story.)

That meant Old Testament.
(Sure, cool - Daniel, David, Jonah, Moses...)

Things start off pretty well.
Creation.
Adam and Eve.
Light.
Beautiful.
Miraculous.

Then Cain kills Abel.
"He killed his brother?"

Then there is Noah.
"But does that mean all the people drowned?"

Then there is Abraham.
"Abraham Lincoln?"

Then there is Lot and Sodom.
"Everyone burned up to death in the city?"
"His wife turned to salt?"
