April 29 | Kindness Isn’t Just for Nice People | Carpooling with Jesus Devotional for Kids Devotional

Pastor Justin welcomes the “carpool crew,” gives shout-outs to Kinsley in Chatham, Illinois and Cammie in Riverside, California, and shares the episode’s big idea: “Kindness isn’t just for nice people.” Using Luke 6:27 (“Love your enemies. Do what is good to those who hate you.”), he explains that real love chooses kindness even when others are mean, excluding, or bullying. He tells a story about Marcus, who invites a boy who mocked him to sit with his group, and over time the boy becomes less mean because kindness got his attention. Pastor Justin clarifies that kindness isn’t being a pushover—kids should set boundaries and tell a teacher if something serious happens. He suggests practical steps: don’t respond with meanness, use kind words anyway, include instead of exclude, and pray for the person, then asks families to discuss one kind thing they could do for someone who hasn’t been kind to them.

Ever find yourself wishing for a little more peace and purpose during the hectic morning routine? Carpooling with Jesus turns the daily drive or breakfast table into a moment of genuine connection. Hosted by Pastor Justin, a pastor and dad who understands family life, this daily podcast offers a brief, refreshing pause built on timeless Bible stories. The idea is simple yet profound: consider what it might be like to have a friendly, wise companion right there with you, offering perspective drawn directly from scripture. Each episode translates biblical truth into relatable encouragement and practical ideas that kids can carry into their day. It’s not about adding another task, but about weaving faith naturally into the existing rhythms of your family. You’ll hear stories that spark conversation, lessons that apply to schoolyard friendships and homework challenges, and a consistent reminder of God’s love.
