#403: Warnings Are a Gift - Mark part 2

Author: Jessica White January 28, 2026 Duration: 16:36
Mark 1:1–8 Before Jesus begins teaching, performing miracles, or gathering crowds, God sends someone first to prepare the way. In this episode, kids meet John the Baptist—the “voice in the wilderness”—and travel with families to the Jordan River to hear his message and see people being baptized. Along the way, we learn what repentance means, why John said he wasn’t even worthy to untie Jesus’ sandals, and how all of this was part of God’s plan from the very beginning. We’ll also hear a true story about the Titanic and discover why warnings aren’t meant to scare us—they’re meant to save us. Most of all, children will be reminded that God is patient, kind, and loving. Even when people mess up or forget Him, God always welcomes His children back when they ask for forgiveness. 🎯 Big idea: God lovingly warns us because He wants to save us—and Jesus is the King who came to rescue us. ------------ Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠kbspodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and click Support & Bonus Content to: 💛 Give a one-time gift of any amount OR 🙌 Access the entire KBS Family Library of content- enjoy weekly bonuses and AD FREE episodes! 📣 Interested in partnering with us? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about advertising here.⁠⁠⁠
