Winnie the Pooh first appeared in a Christmas Eve 1925 newspaper story by AA Milne; the first book followed in 1926. He has become one of the most recognisable children’s characters. In Matthew 18:3, Jesus says unless we become like little children, we cannot enter the kingdom of God. With that in mind, should we reflect more of Pooh’s humility, friendliness and playfulness? To explore The Gospel According to Winnie the Pooh, Peter Prothero from Equippers Church joins us.
