Kids Bible Stories

Esther 4:15-17, 5,6,7 In order to respect each families ages & stages of life, I have adapted some of this. Please go back and read the scriptures referenced discussing with your family as is appropriate. These episodes build upon themselves so please listen to Esther part 1 & 2 if you’ve missed them.  Queen Esther saw a problem and instead of pushing it off on someone else to solve, Mordecai reminded her that maybe God made her queen for that exact moment. The kids will be reminded that like  Esther,  God has specific plans for them. God knows we will see certain problems or someone needing help and He wants US to be the one to help. Our loving God wants us to be included in His wonderful plans....the plans may be small or big, but each day God has a purpose for US !

Esther 2:19- 4:14  In order to respect each families ages & stages of life, I have adapted some of this. Please go back and read the scriptures referenced discussing with your family as is appropriate.   We continue our Esther series. Listen to # 254 if you missed it. Today, we hear Esther has a serious  decision to make. We learn that doing the right thing can be unpopular or even kind of scary sometimes. The kids will think about examples of this in their lives. We remain encouraged that right is always right even if no one else is doing it AND hear that perhaps, Esther was made Queen for such a time as this.  To connect with me, visit https://www.kbspodcast.com/  Thanks for listening! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Luke 6:43-45 Today we begin a short series on words... ya' know, the things that come out of your mouth when you speak. Maybe you’ve never really stopped to think much about them, they just happen so quickly. Our words do matter b/c they have power and are important.. atleast, that’s what the Bible says. In this episode, we will talk about where words come from & listen to Jesus teaching using an example of something the people were familiar with..trees and fruit.

This is not our typical episode. I realized I have not updated how my 5yr old son has been doing. I know so many of you have helped join me in prayer and for that, I am beyond grateful. I wanted to say thank you & give a short update. Though there have been hard times,  God has provided so much for us; whether that's resources, some good medical news, or how He has grown us. I would love to share all of this in detail but I know it may be inappropriate for some children to hear and I want to be sensitive to that.  Thank you for your prayers!!!!!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matthew 6:19-21 & 1 Timothy: 6-10,17-19 You will hear this episode start out just like last weeks however, keep listening because we are adding in different scriptures and discussing a new application. We will hear God's warning about money but also His promises. The kids will understand that money itself isn't bad, it's the LOVE of money that gets us into trouble. We apply this on a very practical level as well as discuss what the Bible says about storing up treasures in heaven.  I hope you enjoy it! Thank you for sharing the Bible with your kids!

Matthew 6:19-21, 24 & Luke 12:13-15  In today's story we hear Jesus teach "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.” We discuss what greed actually is and share an example from my childhood that the kids can relate to. We must be on our guard as Jesus says, because often the world we live in tells us the opposite. It says your life is cool, amazing, and valuable IF you buy this thing or that thing. It is not wrong to want things.. we simply must be cautious that we don't become greedy with our wants. God wants us to trust that He will give us all we really need. He gives us reasons to trust him AND explains why his ways are best which will be discussed on the next episode.  Today's episode is brought to you by Abide.
