Today’s story is one of Jesus’s most snack-filled miracles—and it all starts with a kid and his lunchbox. Just five loaves. Two fish. And somehow… thousands of people are fed.

In John 6:9, we meet a boy who offers up his small lunch. And Jesus? He doesn’t say, “That’s not enough.” He says, “That’ll do.” He blesses it, breaks it, and feeds everyone. With leftovers!

Today’s episode helps kids discover:

• That Jesus loves using small things in big ways

• Why you’re never too young to make a difference

• What it means to give your time, talents, and faith—even if they feel tiny

🚗 Whether you’re hanging under a beach umbrella or munching trail mix in the backseat, this story will remind you: God multiplies what we surrender.

🧠 Bottom Line: Jesus can do big things with small offerings—so give Him what you’ve got.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parent Action Step: Share this episode with a parent friend and talk as a family about one small way you can serve someone this week—just like the boy with the lunchbox.

💬 Family Discussion Question: What’s one small thing you could offer to Jesus today—and how do you think He might use it?

Today’s episode is all about... ants. Yep, those tiny little bugs crawling around your sidewalk. But did you know God says we can actually learn from them?

In Proverbs 6:6, King Solomon—the wisest man who ever lived—calls out laziness and tells us to watch how ants work. Why? Because they hustle with purpose, plan ahead, and get the job done even when no one's watching. Solomon drops some serious wisdom in this short verse, and we’re breaking it down just for you.

Jesus often used nature to teach, and ants? They totally fit. Today’s devotional will challenge kids to:

• Spot the difference between rest and laziness

• Use their time, energy, and gifts for good

• Work with intention—just like ants

🚗 Whether you're chilling at the park, sipping a slushie, or cleaning your room (ant-style), Pastor Justin is here to help you follow Jesus in the small things that matter.

🧠 Bottom Line: You don’t have to be big to be wise—you just have to move with purpose.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parent Action Step: Pick one “Ant Hour” this week—an hour of focused work as a family. No distractions, just getting something done together.

💬 Family Discussion Question: What’s one thing you’ve been putting off… and how can you tackle it like an ant this week?

Hey Carpool Crew! Whether you're cooling off with a Slurpee or relaxing in the shade, today's story is next-level wild. It’s about a group of friends so determined to get their buddy to Jesus… they tore a hole in a roof. 😳

Our verse today is Mark 2:3–4 (CSB):

“They came to him bringing a paralytic, carried by four of them. Since they were not able to bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and after digging through it, they lowered the mat on which the paralytic was lying.”

📍 In this high-energy story from the Gospel of Mark:

• Jesus is preaching in a packed house in Capernaum

• Four faith-filled friends refuse to let the crowd stop them

• They dig through the roof and lower their paralyzed friend down

• Jesus is so moved by their faith, He heals their friend—body and soul

🙌 Takeaway Truth: Real friends do whatever it takes to get each other closer to Jesus.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parent Action Step: Tag a parent or kids’ pastor in the comments, or share this episode with someone who needs a reminder about the power of faithful friendship. 💪

🗣️ Today’s Discussion Question: Who are your “roof friends”—the people who help bring you closer to Jesus?
