John 3:2, 16-19, 1John 3:1, & 1John 4:19 All of our readings have something in common....they speak of God's love for us. We are reminded of God's promises that hold true even when we do not feel it. The kids think about what having a bad day feels like and we discuss how feelings are important but sometimes, they can trick us to forget the truth. This is where we turn to our Bible and remind ourselves the truth of just how much God loves us regardless of if the day we are having feels like a good one or a bad one.  Thanks for listening! I hope this helps facilitate good conversations between you and your children. ----------  🎁 Join the team:Visit https://www.kbspodcast.com/ and click Support & Bonus Content You can: 💛 Give a one-time gift 🙌 Join Patreon for just $5/month and receive weekly bonus content 📅 Or choose a discounted onetime payment annual plan Your gift will help us reach our goal of 500 Paying pateron members.

Acts 3:1–16 Peter and John were headed to the temple to pray when a man who couldn’t walk asked them for money. But instead of coins, Peter offered something far greater—the healing power of Jesus! In this episode, children will hear how Peter did what he could, and then God did what only He could do.With joyful storytelling, sound imagery, and gentle reflection, this episode teaches kids that we can be part of God’s miracles—not because we're powerful, but because He is! 🌟 Key Takeaways for Kids: We get to play a part in God's miracles. We can do what we can do, and trust God to do what we can’t. The power wasn't in Peter—it was in Jesus’ name. ------------------------------------------------------ Check out the Boom Clap Podcast!

Luke 4:1-13 This is part 1 in our short series where we find Jesus being tempted in the desert by the devil. We will learn that  the devil is always a slick and slimy one trying to twist God's words. The devil tries to tempt Jesus into proving that He really is God's son. Of course Jesus is God's son! Jesus knows this truth and does not need to prove anything to the devil so He does not fall for it. We learn that we too can remember the truth of whose we are: we are loved children of God. We apply this truth to help us w/ pride or the feeling to prove ourselves. To connect, with me, simply go to ⁠kbspodcast.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1 Kings 15:25-34 & 1 Kings 16  am so proud of you for going all the way through!

1 Kings 14:20-31, 1 Kings 15: 1-15, &  Psalm 136: 1-4 Out of respect for each families ages and stages of life, I have adapted some of this. Please go back and read the scriptures yourself to see what’s appropriate for your family.  The Solomon episodes also build upon themselves so please go back and listen to ones you may have missed. Today we went through a little bit of a family tree as we followed the kings. We find that most of these kings follow in their father's footsteps and do not follow God. Nevertheless we hear that God does not withdraw His love and is faithful. He kept Jerusalem safe, sticking to His promise we heard Him give David many episode ago. The kids are reminded that God's love never changes. We see this evidence as we hear today's events and read Psalm 136. We have 1 more episode in our Solomon series.

1 Kings 13:1-10, 33-34 & Numbers 8:16-19 Today we hear King Jeroboam's hand suddenly become paralyzed but then miraculously healed when the man of God prays for it. This still does not change Jeroboam's heart and he continues to do evil. We take note that even though Jeroboam still seems like the bad guy, the man of God prayed for him. The kids are reminded to think about someone they know who is far from God and to pray for that person this week. Please join me in helping with the hunger crisis in Somalia.

1 Kings 12: 25-32 & Exodus 32:1-4 If you’ve missed the previous Solomon episodes, please go back and listen or you may be confused as to how we got where we are in today’s story. It is listed as Solomon part I. Today, we hear King Jeroboam set up 2 golden calves as idols for the people in his kingdom. We define what idols are and also prompt the kids to talk with their families about: 1. Ways to grow your love for God 2. Discuss the shows you watch and see if you notice characters idolizing things. 3. Talk about what it looks like to like something versus loving something. God is a loving father & it’s His pleasure to give us good things & see us enjoy them but there’s a difference b/n enjoying something and loving it more than God.  Please join me in helping with the hunger crisis in Somalia.

1 Kings 12:20-24 & Romans 14:11The kingdom is divided: Solomon’s son Rehoboam is king over the southern kingdom, Judah while Jeroboam is king over northern kingdom, Israel. King Rehoboam is not happy about this and assembles an army to win back his kingdom. Will they battle OR does God have a different plan for their lives? We discuss the fact that God says "This is my doing." We are reminded God is always in control and has plans for our lives even when we can't always see it or feel it. We can trust his control and His plans. Why do I trust Him? I trust Him because I can look to the cross to see the His rescue plan for us. The cross reminds me of the cost Jesus paid, the love we are given, and the salvation we didn't earn or deserve. All of this reminds me, I can trust God's plans.Please join me in helping with the hunger crisis in Somalia. For just $12, you can help feed a family for an entire month!

1 Kings 12:1- 17  Today we hear how the kingdom becomes divided and review the sections each king rules, it's name, and the tribes of each. We also point out that the Bible says these events are brought about by the Lord, that He might fulfill his word, which the Lord spoke by Ahijah to Jeroboam. It reminds me there will be times in life where it's not always as it seems. I imagine some in the kingdom were upset and concerned that the kingdom was dividing, but we can trust that God is in complete control. He just told them that the  situation  they are going through was from Him. He was still in control and had plans that they couldn’t quite understand.

 1 Kings11:1-6, 9-13, 26-43, & Luke 1:31-33   In order to respect each families ages and stages of life I have adapted some of this. Please go back and read the scriptures listed so you can include what’s appropriate for your family.  Today we hear what happens at the end of Solomon's reign. Though Solomon sinned, making us wonder how the promise could ever be kept, the kids will see the Gospel woven throughout the Bible as they hear again the promise is fulfilled in the one who was born that Christmas day....Jesus. Jesus Christ will sit on the throne and His kingdom will have no end. What wonderful news!  Thanks for listening and sharing the Bible with your children!

🚨BIG NEWS!🚨Since 2017, I’ve received countless requests to translate Kids Bible Stories into Spanish. For years, it just wasn’t possible… until now.✨ Kids Bible Stories Español has officially launched! ✨ 👉 Roughly 97 to 120 million children who speak Spanish as their native language. That’s nearly 100 million young hearts who could hear the Bible in their own language t.It’s a massive opportunity for kingdom impact. God made a way for this to happen thanks to the incredible Rivera family. This family is  currently helping plant a church, the City Hope Church, in Mexico.  Madai has begun translating the Elijah series, and building from there.  And just like the English version, there’s digital content to go along with it on here I’m offering it for FREE as well! Please pass this news along so families know about this free resource!!!   To learn more about the Rivera's church plant go here   To support it their church go here.

1 Kings 10:1-14, 22-24,  & Ecclesiastes 2:1-11  Today we begin to comprehend just how wealthy Solomon was. With his wealth and his wisdom, Solomon tells us anything he saw and wanted, he got. This might sound incredible but Solomon learned a very valuable lesson that everything is meaningless without God. Things or fame, none of that will satisfy us fully because what we are really searching for is God. The Creator of our souls is the one who satisfies us. The kids will hear examples of this so they can begin to understand how this applies to their own lives.

1 Kings 8:1-24, 54-56, & 1 Kings 9: 1-9 We are continuing our Solomon series. If you’ve missed a few, I'd highly recommend you go back and listen as they build upon themselves.Today's episode picks up after Solomon completed the temple (episode # 280). We listen in as Solomon prays to the Lord and hear what the Lord says to Solomon in return. The Lord warns him and his descendants not to turn away from Him, not to wander and serve other gods. The kids will begin to understand that out of His love, God gives us rules and consequences. When he tells us to do something it's because it's for our own good! He wants to protect us and He offers us things that are real, lasting, and loving versus other things that have fake promises. I try to help the children connect these dots with real life examples they can understand. Thanks for tuning in & helping teach the Bible to your children.

Matthew 27:50-56,  2 Chronicles 3:8-14 & Hebrews 4:14, 16  In our last episode, we heard Solomon built the temple. Today, we are going to hear something really important that happened at the temple on the day Jesus was crucified. We just celebrated Easter so I think this is a perfect time to discuss the significance of the veil being torn. I hope your kids enjoy it!

1 Kings 5:1-10, 6:1-20,29-38, 1 Samuel 16:7, & 1 John 4:19 Today we hear Solomon build a magnificent temple for the Lord. Below, there are links you can visit to see a video of what Solomon's temple looked like.  We hear how  marvelous Solomon's temple was but the kids are reminded that Solomon didn't need to earn God's love and neither do we. 1 John 4:19 "We love because He first loved us."  God chose to love us first, we didn’t have to earn it by becoming rich and famous or building the most impressive building.  Sometimes people will only be kind or loving if they are first shown that. For example, you will only share your bike if they first share their rollerblades. That's not how God works. He shares His love with us first!   I hope you enjoy today's continuation of our Solomon series.To see a video of Solomon's temple go here : https://youtu.be/y2tha7ogpecTo see more about the significance of the rooms, carvings, location, and all of the meanings, search "Solomon's Temple Explained" on YouTube.To connect with me, go to https://www.kbspodcast.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.  To connect with me, simply go to https://www.kbspodcast.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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!

Psalm 119: 35-37 & 1 John 5:3-5 We continue our short love series. Today's episode will define what a command is and understand that God's commands are made out of his love for us. We will hear what the Bible says about this and move to an example so the kids can understand it. They will learn that rules are actually loving; a way to protect us and bring us delight.  Please help us reach our goal of sponsoring 100 children through Compassion International.

  1 Corinthians 13:1-13 & 1 John 4:7, 9-10 This begins a short series on love. To celebrate Valentine's Day this month, I decided it would be good to see what the Bible has to say about love. Where does love come from? Who created it? What does it look like? Tune in to hear what the Bible has to say about these questions. 1 John 4:9-10: " This is how God showed his love to us: He sent his only Son into the world to give us life through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and God sent his Son to die in our place to take away our sins."     Thanks for allowing me to play a small part in teaching your children about Jesus.

 Matthew 28 :1-10, 16-20 & Isaiah 40:8  Today, we hear Jesus promise to be with us ALWAYS! Not only on good days or when we are awake, but always!!! We hear Him say to go out and make disciples. The kids will learn what disciple means. We will also  take a minute to marvel at just how far the Gospel has spread. We remember how far away most of us are from where the Gospel began and give  thanks for those He sent to share God's word.

 Ephesians 1:13  & Daniel 6:16- 17  Today we continue our short series about the Holy Spirit. We hear the word seal or sealed  in the two Bible readings on this episode. But what does that mean? Paul said "And in Christ, God put his special mark on you, a seal,  by giving you the Holy Spirit that He had promised."  We discuss what the signet ring was used for historically and its significance. When God sends us the Holy Spirit, it’s like God taking his special signet ring and stamping us with it.  God’s seal shows the world that we are His! You are his very special, very loved, sons and daughters.     To connect with me click https://www.kbspodcast.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 Acts 1:12-14, 2:1-19, 32-33, 38-39, & John 14: 25 We start our episode hearing Jesus tell his disciples that the Father will send them the Helper, the Holy Spirit. But when will He send Him? Today's episode addresses this.  We fast forward to after Jesus has risen and returned to heaven. The kids will get a brief order of events to help them understand when the episode takes place. We hear the Holy Spirit arrive...howling wind, flames of fire, everyone miraculously speaking different languages... incredible !!!!! Peter addresses the crowd who is chuckling at this wild site. Peter explains what is happening and reminds them that the Holy Spirit is a gift from God.  There is so much to say about the Holy Spirit. Today we will cover when He arrived and how He helps us. Next week we will discuss another aspect of the Holy Spirit so tune in. Your children may have many questions........mine asked me 10 questions about Heaven yesterday !  Don't shy away from them. Be honest. If you don't know, tell them you will look it up and see what your Bible says or other online, Biblically sound resources have to say. I've also found it helpful to ask them what they think. It gives you a gauge on what they already know and sometimes clarifies what they're actually asking. There will also be times we don't have an answer..God is God, we are not, so we don't know it all but, we can remind our kids that we can trust what He says & pray for help to understand his Word.  To connect with me, simply go to https://www.kbspodcast.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Acts 1:1-11 & Luke 24: 36-43 We just celebrated Christmas, which reminds us of Jesus' 1st coming. Today, we will hear the Bible teach about His second coming as we hear what the disciples experienced.   Jesus gave us  instructions on how we should live while we wait for him to return and guess what… He left us w/ some incredible promises as we wait too. We will talk about those more in the next episodes. For now, we remember we have hope. Why?  Because God always keeps his promise so when the Bible says Jesus will come back, we can trust Jesus will return and that, that  gives us hope.  To connect with me, click here: https://www.kbspodcast.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Micah 5:2, John 3:16-18, & Luke 2:1-7 Today we learn what a prophet is when we introduce Micah. We discuss how Micah specifically told where Jesus would be born and we follow the journey God put Mary and Joseph on to get them from Nazareth to Bethlehem. God used different people, events, etc but it allllllll happened just as He said it would. This story also drives home John 3:16-18; that God sent his son Jesus, not to condemn the World, but to save us through Jesus. What a precious gift this is! To engage more with this episode, you can grab a map and show your kids Nazareth and Bethlehem so they see where Mary and Jospeh traveled.

  📖 Main Scriptures: Leviticus 1:3–4, John 1:29, Hebrews 9:12 Why did people in the Bible sacrifice animals? Wasn’t that a little… strange? In today’s special episode, we explore a question many of you have asked—and the answer helps us understand just how incredible Jesus’ love really is. We’ll travel back to the Garden of Eden, hear about how sin entered the world, and discover why people once used animals to cover their sin. Then we’ll meet someone called The Lamb of God—Jesus—and learn why He came to be the final sacrifice once and for all. Kids will hear the difference between covering sin and cleansing it—and why Jesus' love changes everything. ✨ Big Ideas for Little Hearts: Sin is serious—but God’s love is bigger. Animal sacrifices pointed to Jesus. Jesus didn’t just cover our sin—He takes it away. When we mess up, we go to Jesus—not to a priest with a lamb.
