Daniel 6- & Psalm 46:1

*Deep Dive on Daniel: For those interested in exploring Daniel's story further, refer to our 6-part series, episodes #237-244.

In today's episode we discuss:

• Understanding Worry: We differentiate worry from fear and explore how it affects us at different stages of our lives.
• Daniel's Story: A focus on Daniel 6, where Daniel's faith is put to the test, and he faces the lions' den with unwavering trust in God.
• The Power of Prayer: How Daniel's example of prayer offers us a way to navigate our own worries and find peace.
• Emotions in Check: We discuss the importance of keeping our worries in perspective, learning to place trusting God  as our guide rather than letting worry lead the way.

Statistics are showing an increase of worry and anxiety in children.  This will be a little different from our usual episode but the Bible has a lot to say about this so we thought we should address it.  We will differentiate between fear, worry, and and anxiety and give each emotion their own episode. 

Today we discuss fear:

1. Are there good fears? ie; fear of fire, or fear of the Lord
2. Can fear lie to us?
3. Why does God tell us not to be afraid? What promise does he give with it

**If you would like to hear all of David and Goliath that episode is :#112 "There's no one like you." #307 "What if David had a Bad Attitude" is a shortened version with a different application.

Kids Bible Stories Podcast: Episode - "Jesus: The True Light"

In today's episode, we explore the powerful message of Jesus as the ultimate beacon in our lives, shining brighter and truer than any other source. We learned that Jesus describes Himself as "the light of the world," offering us guidance, peace, love, forgiveness, and direction unlike any other. Unlike deceptive lights in the world, like the angler fish's lure, which may seem appealing but lead to harm, Jesus' light is always genuine and life-giving.

We also delved into how God's word acts as a lamp for our feet and a light on our path, guiding us through life's journey. This divine light isn't found in the shows we watch, the advice of friends, or the allure of commercials enticing us to desire material things. It's in the Bible, God's word, which always leads us toward what's truly good.

We discussed the importance of discerning between the misleading "lights" of the world—like the temptations of consumerism or messages that encourage disrespect—and the one true light, Jesus, who desires what's best for us. Remember, the next time you're faced with a decision or a direction, ask yourself: does this align with the light that Jesus offers?

Key Takeaways:

• Jesus is the true light that guides us with love and truth.
• God's word is our ultimate source of guidance, not the fleeting attractions of the world.
• Always test what guides you by comparing it to the teachings of the Bible.

Matthew 27, John18 & 19 , &  Luke 23

 I want to respect each listener's ages and levels of understanding, so I have adapted some of this for the needs of our audience. Please go back and read the scriptures yourselves to include what is appropriate for your family.

We begin our story with Jesus speaking with Pilate and end with the crucifixion.

The kids will hear:

-The meaning of the torn veil (listen to episode #281 to go further)

-This was God's plan; there were no mistakes, no surprises. Jesus chose to lay down His life, and by doing so, Jesus took the weight of every sin, past, present, and future.

-It's not always as it seems. The cross is not the end of the story. We have hope because of what happened 3 days later!

Matthew 26:36-56

We continue our Easter series.  I respect each listener's ages and levels of understanding, so I have adapted some of these for the needs of our audience. Please go back and read the scriptures yourselves to include what is appropriate for your family. 

I will also encourage you to listen to all of the episodes in this Easter series in order, as the stories build upon themselves.

This story begins in the garden of Gethsemane and ends with Jesus being arrested. We remember that Jesus could have whispered 1 word and 100’s of angels would have appeared to rescue him BUT he didn’t do this. Why?

Because He chose to. He chose to obey God b/c he loves God the father!!!! God’s plan had been there all along to rescue us b/c he loves us that much!

The children will be reminded that Jesus is always in control and that He loves them very much!

 Matthew 26, John 13, &  1John 1:9 

We begin our Easter series with:

1. Hearing Jesus, the king of kings, serving and loving his disciples by washing their feet.
2. Introduce the betrayal BUT remind kids that Jesus was not alarmed by this. Jesus knows everything and this isn't "throwing off his plans." 
3. Learn the significance of the passover (We keep it age appropriate; if you want help talking further about the passover, head over to my IG @kidsbiblestories )
4. Explain the connection of the last supper and communion.

As always it will be a fun journey that engages the kids and is explained on their level so they can apply and remember it. We want them to know that God's word is for them, He loves them, and they can know Him!

Genesis 9:8-17

You've made it to our last Noah episode! We hope this series has sparked curiosity, joy, and a deeper connection with God in your hearts. 

Today, we hear about the meaning of the rainbow and touch on what a covenant is. We join Noah's family in that sacred moment when God made a covenant with them and sent the rainbow. It was as if God, through the rainbow, had reached down from the heavens to touch their hearts, sealing the covenant with a promise they could see.

Genesis 8:15-19

We listen in as the ark becomes a hive activity. Even the animals must have sensed the excitement that they were getting close to exiting the ark! Oh to stretch their legs and run full speed using the strong legs God had given them!

We discuss what it must have been like to leave the known, safety of the ark for something new. Kids will consider times in their life when they experienced going from something known to the unknown and how we can trust God during it.

Genesis 8:6-12

In today's episode we hear Noah send out first the raven and then the dove. Will the birds bring back good news of dry and?

The kids will be reminded that if you find yourself in a season of waiting, you can remember Noah's story. Even when you're doing everything right, the results may not come as quickly as you'd like. But we can cling to this truth: God is with you every step of the way. He sees your efforts, hears your prayers, and knows the desires of your heart.
