    Solomon, Ep 1 | Big Shoes to Fill | Episode 1 of 5 | Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible

    Hey Carpool Crew! We're kicking off a brand-new five-episode journey with Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived. But episode one starts before the wisdom: a young man in a palace full of David stories, a brother who grabs for the crown, and a dying king's last words that point past fame, straight at God. Parents, this one is for every kid living in somebody's shadow: the sibling comparison, the famous last name, the teacher who expects a repeat. David's charge in 1 Kings 2:3 reframes it all: you don't fill someone else's shoes, you walk God's path in your own. Today's One Thing: Walk God's path, even in big shoes. Scripture: 1 Kings 2:3 (CSB) The arc: * Episode 1: Big Shoes to Fill * Episode 2: Ask for Anything * Episode 3: The Wisest Man Alive * Episode 4: The Wisest Man's Worst Choice * Episode 5: What Solomon Left Us Everything is on our Website https://carpoolingwithjesus.com Subscribe https://carpoolingwithjesus.com/cwj-plus Download the ROAD TRIP game https://apple.co/4xFb21N GET INVOLVED Request Free Stickers: https://carpoolingwithjesus.com/stickers Book a Shout Out: https://carpoolingwithjesus.com/shoutout Submit a Question from the Backseat: https://carpoolingwithjesus.com/ask Save a seat for the next family: https://carpoolingwithjesus.com/give CARPOOLING WITH JESUS COMMUNITY • Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/CPWJFB • YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/YoutubeCPWJ • Instagram: https://bit.ly/carpooling-insta • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@carpoolingwithjesus Christian podcast for kids, Kids devotional podcast, Daily devotional for kids, Daily Christian podcast for children, Bible devotional for kids, Kids Christian podcast, Christian family podcast, Family faith podcast, Christian parenting, Christian family devotional, Bible stories for kids, Bible lessons for kids, Scripture for kids, Learning about Jesus, Following Jesus, Faith-building for kids, Christian character for kids, Biblical values for children, Christian discipleship for kids, Raising kids to follow Jesus, Christian resources for families, Honesty for kids, Kindness for kids, Courage for kids, Forgiveness for kids, Obedience for kids, Gratitude for kids, Friendship for kids, Trusting God, Christian encouragement for kids, Carpooling with Jesus, Christian audio devotional, Daily Bible podcast for kids, Family devotions, Summer devotions for families, School commute podcast, Car rides with kids

    Hey Carpool Crew! This one is a thank you, and a quick look at how the show works. Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible goes a little deeper.

    Gideon, Ep 1 | Hiding in the Winepress | Episode 1 of 5 | Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible

    Hey Carpool Crew! We are starting a brand-new five-episode journey through one of the most relatable heroes in the whole Bible: Gideon. In episode one, we meet him hiding in a pit, threshing wheat where nobody can see him, scared of the enemy camped all around. And that is the exact moment God calls him "valiant warrior." Today is about who Gideon was before God moved, and the truth that God sees who you can become even when you feel small and scared. A great one for any kid walking into a new school year feeling little. Today's One Thing: God sees who you can become, even when you feel small and scared.
