Happy LEGO Day

Author: Katie Prejean McGrady January 28, 2026 Duration: 1:14:17

On January 28, 1958, the patent for LEGO bricks was filed. Since then, these interlocking plastic bricks with studs and hollow tube bottoms have been the most popular toy on the market, enduring for generations. Why do we love our toys (and LEGO bricks) so much? And what does the story of the invention of LEGO bricks have to teach us about our faith? Today, we share a clip of a full 90 minutes from The Katie McGrady Show, with callers taking to the air to tell us about their favorite childhood toy.
