Matthew 26 :36-56

 Today begins our Easter series! I want to 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!

1Kings 3:1-15, 1Kings 4:20-34 , & Proverbs 3:14-15
 If you missed last weeks episode, make sure to go back and listen so you understand how we got to where we are. Today we hear Solomon ask God for wisdom. This pleases God and God not only gives him wisdom but riches. We will learn that Solomon wrote some of this wisdom down in the book of Proverbs and read a verse showing the value of wisdom. In this world you may hear people call something wise when actually it’s the opposite, it's foolish. This is why It's important we always go back to our Bibles to see what it says about Godly wisdom.
 I hope your family enjoys this episode in our Solomon series.

1Kings1:28-53, 1 Kings2:1-4,10-12,&  Chronicles 22:7-10
 If you missed last week, we began the Solomon series. I highly recommend you go back and listen as the episodes build upon themselves. Today, we hear King David give important instructions to Solomon before he passes.  Adonijah's status of king is short lived when Solomon is crowned king.
We remember that long ago, God said all of this would happen.  The kids will hear us discussing this important fact that God's plans can never be messed up.   We also note that David made some terrible decisions but turned to God and asked him for forgiveness. The kids will be reminded that even our mistakes can be used in God's plan and even though David had some huge mess ups, it did not disqualify him from God's love or God's plan. That brings us peace and encouragement! To be age appropriate, we are not discussing certain details about David's sin, but if it's something your family is ready to discuss, please do so.

 Tune in next week to hear what Solomon will do as the new king.

1 Samuel 16:6-12, 1 Kings 1:1-25,  Chronicles 22:7-10
Today we kick off our series on Solomon. We begin with a quick refresher on David since that is Solomon's father. As David aged, his reign as king was coming to an end. It was time for him to announce who would rule after him but before David even chose, one of his other sons, Adonijah, decided he would be king next, not Solomon. How will David choose who should become king next? We read in Chronicles  that long before this moment, the Lord told David who would become king next. 

I hope you enjoy this Solomon series.  Parents, some parts of episodes are adapted out of respect for the variety of ages that listen (Examples include adaptions for  graphic violence and sex). Scripture is always referenced for parents to read  and include more as is appropriate for their family.

For the month of March, we are beginning a brand new series on Solomon! 

 Each episode will also build upon itself so if you miss one, just go back and listen. We are going to learn about Solomon 1 episode at a time and let me tell you, the Bible is never boring so buckle up.

Parents I have adapted some of these episodes out of respect for each family's ages and stages of  life. I always include the scripture for you to read yourself and include what's appropriate for your family. I make every effort to not alter the meaning of the scriptures when using artistic liberties or adapting to be age appropriate. Being biblically sound is of utmost importance!
