HEY CARPOOL CREW! We're all rushing somewhere. School. Practice. The next thing. And in the middle of all that motion, somebody right next to us actually needs help. Today Pastor Justin walks the Carpool Crew through Mark 5, where Jesus is heading to handle something urgent and still stops for the woman who reaches out to Him.

 

The big One Thing for the day: Jesus stops for people in need. Kids will hear three simple ways to live it out today. Notice the people around you. Don't rush past them. Care even when you're busy. About six minutes, kid-friendly, and built to spark a real conversation in the car.

 

Try this on the way home: When is it hardest for you to stop and help someone?

 

Today's One Thing: Jesus stops for people in need.

 

Scripture: Mark 5:30 (CSB)

Hey Carpool Crew! Today we’re talking about one of the smartest answers Jesus ever gave. Some religious leaders tried to trap Him with a tricky question about taxes, government, and Caesar… but Jesus stayed calm, thought clearly, and pointed everyone back to what matters most: honoring God above all.

Today’s Big Idea:
Do what’s right and honor God above all.

“Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”

In This Episode, Kids Will Learn:

Why the religious leaders tried to trap Jesus

What Jesus meant by “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s”

How Jesus stayed calm under pressure

Why our hearts belong to God first

How to handle tricky situations with friends and peer pressure

Why doing the right thing is always worth it

Hey Carpool Crew! Today we’re talking about one of the most intense moments in Jesus’ ministry when He walked into the temple and flipped over tables! Why would Jesus do something like that? And what does it teach us about trusting Him?

In this episode, Pastor Justin walks through John 2:18 and explains why Jesus cared so deeply about worship, people, and what was right. The religious leaders demanded proof that Jesus had authority, but Jesus pointed to the greatest proof of all: His death and resurrection.

Kids will learn that we can trust Jesus not just because of what He said, but because of what He actually did for us.

Today’s Big Idea:
We can trust Jesus because of what He’s done for us.

Bible Verse:
John 2:18 (CSB)
“What sign can you show us to prove your authority?”

In This Episode, Kids Will Learn:

Why Jesus cleared the temple

What made Jesus angry in the temple courts

Why the religious leaders questioned Jesus

What Jesus meant when He said He would raise the temple in three days

How Jesus proved who He is through His resurrection

Why we can trust Jesus even when we have doubts

Family Discussion Question:
When you have doubts, what can you remember about what Jesus has already done?

Parents:
If your child enjoyed this episode, send Pastor Justin a message on Instagram @carpoolingwithjesus and share what stood out to your family. One listener will even get some special Carpooling with Jesus goodies!

Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗 Pastor Justin here, and today we’re tackling a big question: Is Jesus just a really good teacher… or is He actually God?

Today’s Big Truth: Jesus isn’t just a good teacher. He is God.

In John 8:58, Jesus says something that caught everyone’s attention: “Before Abraham was, I am.”

That might sound simple at first, but it was a huge statement. “I am” was the name God used for Himself in the Old Testament. So when Jesus said that, He wasn’t just saying He existed before Abraham. He was saying He is God.

We break that down in a way kids can understand, including a simple school example that makes it click.

Here’s why this matters for you today:

Jesus knows everything about you

Jesus has power over everything

Jesus’ love for you is real and personal

This isn’t just about knowing facts. It changes how you pray, how you trust Him, and how you live every day.

When you talk to Jesus, you’re talking to God. When you feel scared, God is with you. When you follow Jesus, you’re following the One who made everything.

Parent Action Step: Follow us on Instagram @carpoolingwithjesus for short clips, encouragement, and easy conversation starters you can use with your kids all week long.

Family Discussion Question: Why do you think it matters that Jesus isn’t just a teacher, but actually God?
