In this episode of ARK – Apostolic Radio for Kids, We explore what it really means to love others and show compassion.
Through a fun, modern retelling of the Parable of the Good Samaritan, kids meet the humorous character Rubber Bandit, who learns that avoiding people has consequences — and that kindness often starts with noticing someone else’s need. This episode reminds listeners that being a good neighbor doesn’t require big gestures, just a willing heart.
Being kind means caring for others — even when it’s inconvenient.
God wants us to love people who may seem different or shy
Kindness often shows up in small, simple actions
Ignoring others can hurt more than we realize
We can choose to be good neighbors every day
The Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30–37, KJV theme-based reference)
Who was kind in the story, and who chose not to help?
Why do you think it can be hard to help someone we don’t know well?
What are some small ways we can be good neighbors this week?
Look for someone who might feel left out — at church, school, or home — and show them kindness with a word, a smile, or an offer to help.
Loving others doesn’t have to be big — it just has to be real.
