Today we will learn about Jesus performing many miracles and allowing people to experience the power of God. Parents, want to keep talking? Here are some ideas:

*Tell me some things that are powerful. What do you think is the most powerful thing on earth? How did Jesus show God’s power (He performed many miracles) (ages 2-5)

*When John baptized Jesus, a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, and I love him. I am very pleased with him.” How does it feel when your parents say those words about you? What are some things you can do to please your parents? (ages 6-10)

*Jesus called a wide variety of people to be his disciples-fisherman, tax collectors, revolutionaries—why didn’t Jesus call more powerful people like religious and government leaders? Think of the Christians you know. Are they all the same? Why does jesus call people with different interests and personalities to follow him? (ages 11-12)

One last thing! This week April asked, “What is something you know ONLY God can do?”. Simply record a voice memo and send it in a text to 636-280-5433. You may even be featured in an upcoming episode. *By sending in a voice memo, you’re providing consent for your minor’s voice to be on the podcast*

If you confess Jesus as your Savior, every day you're being targeted. Satan wants nothing more than to separate God from His people, and he's really, really good at knowing how to go about it. We all have trials and temptations in life, and Satan has a great sense of timing. He knows when we're most vulnerable to his lies and what he can use to tempt us.

That's a lot of doom and gloom, but it's the reality of life for a Christian. Of course, we're not without hope! Early in His ministry, Jesus endured (and conquered) Satan's temptations. We have tools against the devil's schemes—and a loving God on our side who will go to any length to save us. In this week’s episode, Pastor Chuck Schlie looks at the beginning of Jesus’ mission of salvation.

Today we will learn about how Jesus was born into this world to be our rescuer! Parents, want to keep talking? Here are some ideas:

Ask: What special baby was born? Why did God send his Son? (To save all people) When do we celebrate Jesus’ birth? (at Christmastime) What is your favorite part of celebrating Jesus’ birth? (ages 2-5)

What would you say if an angel appeared to you? Why do you think the angels appeared to shepherds instead of powerful, rich people? Not a lot is recorded about Jesus’ growing-up years. Do you think Jesus was a good kid? Why do you think that? (ages 6-10)?

John writes that life was in Jesus and “that life was the light for all people.” What do you think that means? Is God’s light for all people? If so, why don’t all people know Jesus as Savior? (ages 11-12)

One last thing! This week April asked, “Why do you think God sent his son to be a savior for EVERYONE?”. Simply record a voice memo and send it in a text to 636-280-5433.
