    May 25 | Make Room for the Kid No One Else Is | Carpooling with Jesus Kids Podcast

    Hey Carpool Crew! Pastor Justin kicks off the week with a shout out to Harper in Maryvale, Tennessee, and a challenge for the whole carpool crew: make room for the kid no one else is making room for. Today's episode walks kids through Mark 10:14, when the disciples tried to block parents from bringing their kids to Jesus. Jesus stopped everything, called the kids over, and reminded everyone that they were never in the way. One Thing to Remember: Make room for the kid no one is making room for. Three things kids can do this week: Find one kid sitting alone at lunch and ask to sit with them. Say yes the first time a younger sibling wants to hang out. Look for the kid not playing at recess and invite them in. Family Discussion Question: Why was it important to Jesus to tell the disciples to let all the kids come to him?

    May 24 | When Jesus Says “Follow Me,” Go Right Then | Devotional for Kids Carpooling with Jesus Kids Devotional

    Hey Carpool Crew! In today’s episode, Pastor Justin shares the incredible story of Matthew from Matthew chapter 9. Matthew was a tax collector, which meant most people avoided him, disliked him, and thought he was beyond change. But Jesus walked right up to him and gave him a simple invitation: “Follow me.” And Matthew did. He didn’t wait. He didn’t make excuses. He didn’t tell Jesus he needed more time. He got up immediately, left his old life behind, and followed Jesus. This episode encourages kids to listen for the quiet nudges God gives us to do the right thing and reminds them that obedience often starts with one small “yes.” Kids will learn: Why tax collectors were disliked in Jesus’ day How Jesus saw potential in Matthew when others didn’t Why following Jesus starts with action, not perfection How to recognize God’s nudges in everyday life Why delayed obedience can keep us stuck Scripture Referenced:Matthew 9:9 (CSB) Today’s challenge:The next time you feel God nudging you to do the right thing, do it within the next 10 minutes. Don’t wait. Whether it’s apologizing, telling the truth, helping someone, or praying for a friend, take action right away. Special shoutouts to Nate, Samuel, Luke, and Elena from Moseley, Virginia.

    May 23 | Care More About People Than Your Stuff | Devotional for Kids Carpooling with Jesus Kids Devotional

    Hey Carpool Crew! In today’s episode, Pastor Justin shares a powerful teaching from Jesus in Luke chapter 12 about greed, gratitude, and what really matters most. When a man interrupted Jesus to complain about money and possessions, Jesus used the moment to teach something bigger: life is not about having more stuff. Toys, shoes, video games, gadgets, and money are not bad things, but they should never become more important than the people around us. This episode helps kids understand how comparison, greed, and selfishness can sneak into our hearts and damage relationships. Jesus teaches us to live with generosity, gratitude, and compassion instead. Kids will learn: What Jesus taught about greed and possessions Why people matter more than things How comparison steals joy and gratitude Practical ways to share and be generous Why giving can actually make us happier Scripture Referenced:Luke 12:15 (CSB) Today’s challenge:Share something this week without being asked. Then look around your room and choose one thing you no longer use that could bless someone else. Special thanks to all our international Carpool Crew listeners in places like South Africa, Indonesia, Australia, Canada, Nigeria, The Bahamas, the United Kingdom, and around the world.
