Easter part 4: He's Not Here; He's Alive!

Easter part 4: He's Not Here; He's Alive!

Author: Jessica White April 1, 2026 Duration: 14:58
John 19, Matthew 28, Luke 23, & 1 Corinthians 15:55 In this powerful Easter episode, we continue our journey following the sorrow of the cross to the joy of the resurrection. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus lovingly bury Jesus, and guards are posted at the tomb. But on the third day, something incredible happens—Jesus rises from the dead! With awe and joy, the women discover the empty tomb and meet Jesus alive again. Children are reminded that the cross was not the end—Jesus conquered sin and death, just like He said He would. Because He lives, we have forgiveness and hope!

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.
