Hey Carpool Crew! Whether you’re swinging from monkey bars or riding home with sand in your shoes, Pastor Justin is back with an epic Bible story that kids won’t forget. Today, we’re talking about Zacchaeus, the man who climbed a tree just to see Jesus!
Our verse of the day is Luke 19:4 (CSB)
“So running ahead, he climbed up a sycamore tree to see Jesus, since he was about to pass that way.”
Zacchaeus lived in Jericho, had lots of money—but no real friends. Why? Because he stole from people! But when he heard Jesus was coming, he ran and climbed a tree to get a glimpse. What happened next? Jesus saw him, called him by name, and chose to spend time with him—just as he was.
📍 In this episode, kids will learn:
Why Zacchaeus climbed the tree and what it showed about his heart
That Jesus sees you—you don’t have to climb higher or try harder
How to take bold steps toward Jesus
How to make things right, just like Zacchaeus did
How to be a friend to someone who feels left out
⏱️ Plus, we’ve got a fun challenge: If you climb a tree this week, think about how Jesus already sees you and loves you—no climbing required!
👨👩👧👦 Parent Action Step:Share this episode with another parent or post it in a Facebook group. Help others turn car rides into faith-filled conversations!
🗣️ Today’s Discussion Question:What’s one way you can be like Zacchaeus and take a bold step toward Jesus today?

We’re diving into Proverbs 19:17 —
“Kindness to the poor is a loan to the Lord, and He will give a reward to the lender.” (CSB)
This isn’t just “be nice because you’re told to.” This is deep, heart-first kindness — the kind God sees, honors, and loves.
Inside today’s episode, you’ll learn:
What Proverbs teaches about helping others in need
How God views acts of kindness as gifts to Him
Why Jesus said “whatever you did for the least of these, you did for Me”

Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗Whether you're heading to summer camp or chilling while your Xbox warms up, today's episode is packed with purpose.
We’re looking at Mark 10:45 —
“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (CSB)
That one sentence from Jesus changes everything. Back in His day, kings were treated like royalty (literally!). But Jesus flipped it upside down: the greatest one is the one who serves.
We’ll unpack:
What was happening when Jesus said this
Why this lesson blew the disciples’ minds
What it means to live with a “serve-first” attitude
And how you can serve others this week — at home, in your neighborhood, at camp, or at church!

🚗 Father’s Day Special — Carpooling with Jesus
Hey Carpool Crew! Whether you're in the car, eating cereal at the kitchen table, or riding your scooter down the sidewalk—this Father’s Day episode is just for you.
🦸 It’s time to play: REAL DAD or SUPERHERO?Spoiler alert: While dads don’t wear capes or shoot webs, they love, protect, and lead in powerful ways that reflect the heart of God.
Today, we’re looking at Jesus’ earthly dad, Joseph, and what made him the kind of father God chose for His Son. Joseph didn’t have fame or superpowers—but he had courage, obedience, and grit. Through him, and through His Heavenly Father, Jesus learned what it means to love with strength and serve with heart.
📖 Key Verses:
Matthew 1:20–24 — Joseph listens to God’s voice
Matthew 2:13–15 — Joseph protects his family
John 5:19 — Jesus follows the Father’s example
Psalm 68:5 — God is a Father to the fatherless
💡 Big Lesson: Great dads show us a glimpse of what God is like—loving, present, and kind. And even if your dad isn’t around or doesn't get it right, your Heavenly Father always does.
👟 Action Steps for Kids:
Say thank you to your dad or a dad-like person
Pray for them to have strength and wisdom
Forgive when they mess up
Spend time with them—it’s the best gift
🎙️ Story Moment:Imagine Jesus as a kid, hammer in hand, missing the nail—and Joseph saying, “Good job, son. Keep trying. I’m proud of you.” That’s the kind of love every kid needs. And that’s how God sees you.
💬 Discussion Question:What’s something your dad—or a dad-like person—has done that made you feel really loved or special?

Today on Carpooling with Jesus, we’re diving into one of the strangest and funniest stories in the whole Bible — and yes, it involves a real talking donkey (no Shrek here). 😄
📖 Key Verse: “Then the Lord opened the donkey’s mouth…” — Numbers 22:28
Balaam thought he was on a simple trip, chasing a reward. But God had a different plan — and when Balaam wouldn’t listen, even his donkey had to speak up.

🏕️ In today’s episode:
A prophet named Balaam gets roadblocked by an angel
A donkey becomes the voice of reason
A summer camp story about ignoring warning signs

Today on Carpooling with Jesus, we’re diving into one of the most surprising post-resurrection miracles Jesus ever did — and yes, it involves fishing! 🎣
When the disciples didn’t know what to do, they went back to what they knew: fishing. But after a long night of catching nothing, Jesus showed up on the shore with some unexpected help — and a miraculous catch of 153 large fish.
📖 Verse of the Day: John 21:11 — “So Simon Peter climbed up and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish—153 of them. Even though there were so many, the net was not torn.”

Why the disciples went back to fishing
How Jesus helped them in an unexpected way
What it means to "cast again" in your own life
A summer story about skipping rocks and learning to listen

In today’s Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin takes us into one of the most unforgettable moments from Noah’s story—when the animals came two by two into the ark (Genesis 7:9). But guess what? Noah didn’t go on a safari hunt. God brought the animals to him, and Noah was simply ready.
With a funny childhood story about his first goldfish, Captain Bubbles, Pastor Justin helps kids understand what it means to be responsible and faithful—whether you're caring for a pet, cleaning your room, or helping your siblings (even when they steal your snacks).
📖 Bible Verse of the Day:“Two of each, male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, just as God had commanded Noah.” – Genesis 7:9 (CSB)
💡 Big Idea:When we do our part, God does His. Faithfulness starts small—and matters big.
🚗 Carpool Challenge:Ask each other, “What’s one small thing God has given you to take care of this week?” Then go do it… like Noah did—ready, faithful, and with a great attitude!

🌧️ Today on Carpooling with Jesus, we’re going way back to the story of Noah and the ark — when one man followed God, even though everyone thought he was crazy. Genesis 6:22 tells us: “Noah did this. He did everything that God had commanded him.” No excuses. No waiting. Just obedience.

🎧 Carpooling with Jesus – A daily podcast for kids and families
Today we’re talking about a hard but honest moment in the Bible—when Mary and Martha both said to Jesus:
“Lord, if you had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.” (John 11:21, 32 CSB)
It was more than a statement.It was a faith-filled, grief-soaked question:“Jesus, where were you?”
💡 One Thing for the Ride:Jesus cares when you’re hurting—even when you don’t understand His timing.
Kids will learn:
That it’s okay to ask God hard questions
How Jesus shows compassion when we feel pain
Why we can trust that He’s still working—even when we don’t see it yet
👨👩👧👦 Family Question of the Day:Have you ever wondered where Jesus was during a hard time? What would you say to Him?

In today’s Carpooling with Jesus, the disciples ask Jesus a huge post-resurrection question:👉 “Lord, are you restoring the kingdom to Israel now?” (Acts 1:6 CSB)
They expected Jesus to take over like a powerful king. But instead, Jesus gave them (and us!) a greater mission—to share His love, truth, and forgiveness with the world.
In this episode, kids will discover:
What the disciples expected Jesus to do after the resurrection
Why Jesus chose to send them instead of building a throne
How we’re part of God’s big plan right now—no crowns required!
💡 One Thing for the Ride:You are part of God’s big plan—right now.
🚘 Car Talk Question:What’s one way I can be part of God’s plan today—by helping, including, or encouraging someone?
