#371: The Saddest Day and the Greatest Gift

Author: Jessica White April 13, 2025 Duration: 13:15
Matthew 27, John18 & 19 , &  Luke 23  I want to respect each listener's ages and levels of understanding, so I have adapted some of this for the needs of our audience. Please go back and read the scriptures yourselves to include what is appropriate for your family. We begin our story with Jesus speaking with Pilate and end with the crucifixion. The kids will hear: -The meaning of the torn veil (listen to episode #281 to go further) -This was God's plan; there were no mistakes, no surprises. Jesus chose to lay down His life, and by doing so, Jesus took the weight of every sin, past, present, and future. -It's not always as it seems. The cross is not the end of the story. We have hope because of what happened 3 days later! --------------------- To enjoy bonus content for the episodes which also supports us, go here To connect with us go here For our free read-a-loud pdf book get it free here See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jessica White hosts Kids Bible Stories, a gentle and engaging audio experience designed for families. Imagine those classic narratives from scripture unfolding right in your living room or car, told with a warmth that captures young imaginations. Each episode uses expressive character voices, rich soundscapes, and thoughtful pacing to transform ancient texts into immediate, relatable adventures. The idea is to move beyond a simple reading, creating a space where children can truly listen and connect. This podcast fits seamlessly into daily routines, whether it's during a commute, over a meal, or as part of a quiet wind-down. The segments are crafted to be digestible for shorter attention spans, focusing on a single story or theme per installment. By presenting these tales with such care and creativity, the goal is to spark natural conversations about values, kindness, and faith in a context kids understand. It’s about making the foundational stories of Christianity accessible and meaningful for curious young minds, helping them find points of recognition between the lessons in the Bible and their own experiences at home, school, and play. Tuning in regularly offers a consistent, comforting touchpoint for spiritual exploration as a family.
