#353: God’s Mysterious Victory - Elisha part 3 Nov 27, 2024

Show notes

2 Kings 3:20-25

Today’s episode continues our journey with Elisha and the three kings. When the Israelites were in need, God performed an amazing miracle—filling the land with water, even though there was no rain! The Moabites, the enemies of Israel, thought the water was blood and believed the armies had fought each other. They charged in, only to find the Israelites ready to fight!

We are reminded of God’s power and ability to work in such mysterious ways. We use a relatable example for kids to show them that God is always with them, actively working in their lives, even in ways they might not see right away.

Luke 17: 11-19

10 people are sick with leprosy. All 10 ask Jesus for help and he heals all of them but how many come back to say thank you?

We may hear the story and think, "I would never do that!" But let's think about those every day, amazing things that happen in our own lives that we too can forget to say thank you to Jesus for.

In this special episode, we get to hear from real listeners, just like you, telling us what they're thankful for.

Show notes

2 Kings 3:1-11

In this exciting new series, we dive into the life of Elisha, the prophet who followed Elijah. After receiving a double portion of Elijah's spirit, Elisha was empowered by God to perform twice as many miracles as his teacher! Today, we join Elisha at the beginning of his journey when three kings—Jehoram of Israel, Jehoshaphat of Judah, and the king of Edom—team up to fight the king of Moab. Their journey, however, quickly goes wrong as they find themselves lost and without water in the wilderness. In desperation, King Jehoshaphat suggests seeking guidance from a prophet. Enter Elisha!

Show notes

2 Corinthians 1:1-10

In today’s episode, we hear from the Apostle Paul as he writes to the people of Corinth about how God comforts us in our suffering. Paul knew a lot about hard times—he was shipwrecked, beaten, and put in jail! But even in those tough moments, he reminds us that we are never alone, and God is always with us, offering His comfort. We’ll explore what it means to feel comforted by God and how we can share that comfort with others who are going through difficult times.

#349: Rejoice in our Sufferings Oct 23, 2024

Show notes

Romans 5:1-6.

In today’s episode, we dive into the topic of suffering since some of you have been requesting this. Now, there is A LOT to teach kids about suffering and we are only covering 1 sliver of this so make sure to address any questions they have since we can’t cover it all in 1 episode.

We’ll talk about what suffering is, what the Bible says about it, and how even difficult times can help us grow in our faith. We'll also hear from Paul, who faced many challenges like shipwrecks and imprisonment, and yet, told us why we are to rejoice in our sufferings. Kids will hear how suffering can produce endurance, character, and hope, and hear an encouraging example from nature about wildfires and new growth.

KBS hit by Hurricane Helene update! Oct 13, 2024

Show notes

We are safe and well but are still without Internet and cell phone. This makes it quite difficult to upload or edit episodes for sound effects, music etc.

This is not our usual episode but I wanted to get this information out to you as well as encourage the kids from what we have learned during the storm. We have seen God show up in beautiful ways and have seen people be the hands and feet of Christ during it. I hope it encourages kids and reminds them of God's goodness and provision even during storms; whether it's a literal or figurative storm in their life.

We appreciate your patience as we await for some of the infrastructure where we live to get up and going. Please pray for those men and women who have been working 15 hour das on the powerlines, fixing the water system, and those helping the community. Please pray for those who lost everything. So many have lost businesses or homes and most don't have flood insurance because this event was such a rare situation.

You can contact me here https://www.kbspodcast.com/ and know I will respond once I am able to get a signal.

#348: God Never Sleeps Oct 09, 2024

Show notes

Isaiah 40:9, 11-14, 21-22, 25-31

We can grow tired and weary...tired from sharing with little brother over and over again, sad and worn out hearing some bad news, or physically exhausted from the day. Today's story describes characteristics of our heavenly Father teaching us that there is no one like Him. We grow tired but our God NEVER does! We will apply how this brings us comfort & how we can trust Him.
