Title: “The Tricky Treasure of Quick Fun”
🎧 Welcome back, treasure hunters!
In this week’s episode, your trusty hosts Brad and Carrie are back in the passenger and driver seats, continuing our journey to discover true treasure. With just four weeks left in our treasure hunt, we’re digging into a tricky one today—Quick Fun.
😄 Joke of the Day
You know we’ve got to start with a laugh! (It’s got some serious bounce.)
🗺️ Today’s Tools: The Map & The Compass
As always, we’re using our map to see where we’re going and our compass—God’s Word—to guide the way.
Today, we’re looking at Ecclesiastes 9, where Solomon gives us some wise insight about the difference between fun that fades and a life that lasts.
💡 Big Idea of the Day:
“True treasure is not found in quick fun in the moment. True treasure is found in honoring God and following His commands.”
Quick fun—like games, treats, or trampoline time—can be awesome. But if we chase only that, we’ll miss out on the joy that sticks with us. God invites us to something deeper and more lasting: a life that honors Him.
📖 Memory Verse for May:
“So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.”
—2 Corinthians 4:16 (ESV)
🚗 Drive Time Discussion Questions:
While you're on the go, talk through these with your kids:
What’s something fun you’ve done lately? Did it last, or was it over quick?
What’s one way you can choose something meaningful instead of just something fast and fun?
💬 Final Thought:
Quick fun might feel great for a moment, but the treasure that truly lasts is found in honoring God every day. That’s the kind of treasure that builds a life full of joy, purpose, and real adventure.
🙌 Thanks for riding along with us today. Stay wise, stay thankful, and remember where true treasure is found!
