#403: Warnings Are a Gift - Mark part 2
Jan 2800:16:36Tap to summarizeMark 1:1–8 Before Jesus begins teaching, performing miracles, or gathering crowds, God sends someone first to prepare the way. In this episode, kids meet John the Baptist—the “voice in the wilderness”—and travel with families to the Jordan River to hear his message and see people being baptized. Along the way, we learn what repentance means, why John said he wasn’t even worthy to untie Jesus’ sandals, and how all of this was part of God’s plan from the very beginning. We’ll also hear a true story about the Titanic and discover why warnings aren’t meant to scare us—they’re meant to save us. Most of all, children will be reminded that God is patient, kind, and loving. Even when people mess up or forget Him, God always welcomes His children back when they ask for forgiveness. 🎯 Big idea: God lovingly warns us because He wants to save us—and Jesus is the King who came to rescue us. ------------ Visit kbspodcast.com and click Support & Bonus Content to: 💛 Give a one-time gift of any amount OR 🙌 Access the entire KBS Family Library of content- enjoy weekly bonuses and AD FREE episodes! 📣 Interested in partnering with us?

Jan 2100:14:24Tap to summarizeToday we begin a brand new series through the Gospel of Mark! Because we’re starting a new series, this episode is all about helping kids understand the book before we dive into the stories. When we read a book of the Bible, it’s important to ask: Who wrote it? Who was it written to? And why was it written? In this episode, we discover what a “gospel” is, why there are four Gospels, and that Mark wrote down the apostle Peter’s eyewitness stories about Jesus. We also learn that Mark’s big question is: Who is Jesus? This episode is like laying the foundation before we start building. It prepares us for everything that’s coming next as we begin this journey. ------------ 2 Minute Survey We’re running a very short, listener survey to help us understand our audience and keep Kids Bible Stories going strong. While this podcast is mostly funded by listener support, our sponsors help keep it free for families, and this survey helps them help us. It’s simple, it’s quick, and it’s a really practical way you can support the show. Thanks for helping ------ To connect with me go here

Jan 1400:15:47Tap to summarize📖 Scripture Matthew 2 & John 10:10 In today’s episode of Kids Bible Stories, we continue the Christmas story and discover that not everyone was happy about Jesus’ birth. While the Magi followed the star and worshiped Him, King Herod felt threatened and refused to bow down to the true King. When Herod realized that he had been outsmarted by the Magi, he was furious and gave orders to destroy all the boys in Bethlehem and the surrounding towns—hoping this terrible plan would get rid of Jesus. Through the story of the Magi, King Herod, and God’s unstoppable plan, kids will learn one important truth: not everyone wants to follow Jesus—some want to be their own king. Of course, there are many reasons people resist God, and it would take far more than one episode to explore them all. In this story, we focus on just one: the human desire to be our own god- thinking we know best. Jesus reminds us that He came to give us life to the full (John 10:10). Following Him isn’t about losing freedom—it’s about being rescued into a life filled with forgiveness, love, and joy. This episode invites kids to reflect on everyday choices—like patience, honesty, and humility—and to consider what it means to let Jesus be King of their hearts. ****PARENTS: I also want you to know that I believe Scripture clearly teaches that only God can change a heart. It is the work of the Holy Spirit. ‘“The biblical picture is that God does the decisive work of heart transplant and heart circumcision and heart unhardening, and we are immediately participants in this miracle as conscious, intentional, willing actors renouncing the old heart, cutting away with all of the opposition we can muster the old life, and embracing the new and feeding the new tenderness of heart on God’s word and by God’s Spirit.”-John Piper. **** This is a great article you can read on this topic!***** with scripture cited so you can reference it. 🎁 This podcast is free because of the generosity of families like yours.

Jan 700:11:14Tap to summarizeJames 1:19-25 Today's story reminds us that if we hear God's word but don't actually obey, then we are like a man who looks in the mirror, walks away, and forgets what he looks like. I try to connect the dots for the kids in a way they will understand and be able to apply this story to their own lives.

Transcribe →#399: The Christmas Journey of Three Curious Camels
Dec 2400:16:45Tap to summarize📖 Scriptures Referenced Numbers 24:17, Matthew 2:2, Luke 2:11, & John 3:16–17 🐪 Summary In this special Christmas episode, we take a break from our usual Kids Bible Stories format to explore the story of Jesus’ birth from a fresh and cozy perspective—through the eyes of three very curious camels. We begin by helping kids understand an important and often-missed detail of the Christmas story: While the shepherds visited Jesus the night He was born, the Wise Men arrived later, when Jesus was a little older. Even so, everyone who came—shepherds and Wise Men alike—came for the same reason: to worship the Savior God promised. From there, we invite listeners into a gentle imagination story, wondering what it might have been like for the camels who carried the Wise Men’s treasures across deserts, followed the brilliant star, and witnessed the fulfillment of ancient prophecies. As the camels travel beneath the shining star, kids hear Scripture woven throughout the story, including the prophecy of the coming King, the Wise Men’s search for Jesus, and the beautiful truth that the greatest King arrived in humility—not in a palace, but in a manger. The episode closes by reminding listeners that God’s greatest gift is Jesus, sent out of love to rescue and save the world. ----------------------- 🎁 This podcast is free because of the generosity of families like yours.
