Kids Bible Stories Jessica White

COLOSSIANS 2:13-15

Recently, we celebrated Easter and since that time, parents have been sending in fantastic questions kids have had; many of them related to Easter. I am going to do my best to answer PART 2 of the more complex questions :Why Did Jesus Die? 

We use a story about two children who disobey the rules and play ball in the house. This ends with a window being broken and the understanding that someone must cover the cost of this mistake. The children realize they can not fix such an expensive mistake and must be forgiven and helped by their parents. Though the parents were not the ones that broke the window,  out of love and their ability to have money, they are able to cover this cost. 

 We use this example and connect the dots to the Bible that:

1. Our sin is very serious.

2. No human & no amount of money can fix our sins. Jesus is the only one who can save us. He never sinned.

3. Jesus cleaned up the mess we made and absorbed the cost himself when he died on the cross.

4. We all sin and can ask Jesus to forgive us. 

Resources for parents:

 The Reason for God by Tim Keller. This is an adult book and covers many difficult questions which you can study and then teach your child on their level. 

 5 Truths About the Death of Jesus  This is an adult article from the Desiring God website. You will need to bring this down to a child's level but it is a good guide of what to begin covering with them. 

The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross Kids book that addresses sin and the cross.

Romans 3:23 -24 & John 3:16

Recently, we celebrated Easter and since that time, Parents have been sending in fantastic questions kids have had, many of them related to Easter. Today, we are dong a special episode as I do my best to answer one of the more complex questions : What did Jesus Save us from. I understand there are a variety of ages and backgrounds who are listening so I have tried to keep it age appropriate for most families.  

We learn about:

1. Adam & Eve sinning & how that affects us. 

2. We all need Jesus and His grace. Grace is a gift, not earned.

3. Sin separates us from God. We are made right with God by being made free from sin through Jesus Christ.

***** We will not discuss Hell in this episode. Hell is biblical and should be discussed in your family when it's appropriate. I did not address this here as I want to respect families and the personal discussions that need to occur in the home for this. ****** I am including the link Desiring God here as a resource on how to discuss hell with your children.

Matthew 13: 1-3, 36, 44

Today we get to hear the parable of the man who finds treasure in the field. In his JOY he goes and sells all he has to buy that field.  Our apply section will connect the dots that Jesus is saying : when we see that being w/ him is like finding treasure hidden in a field, we rightly see that no toy or superhero compares to our savior Jesus.

Philippians 4:4-8

In today's story, we hear a letter from our friend Paul. He reminds us that when we feel nervous or anxious,  we should notice what we are thinking about. Sometimes our minds can run wild with crazy thoughts that just aren't true or good. Our feelings can lead us astray at times.

We will do something special today, and hear a short story about a girl named Kayleigh. Kayleigh is nervous about having to speak in front of her class BUT she remembers the Bible story her mom just read from Paul. Tune in to hear the story in action.

Thanks for listening!
