The eye is the lamp of the body. We have to be skilled in directing our kids' gaze. It's a proactive thing to direct them to hopeful things. Through remembering, praying, giving thanks through worship, and then sharing, we can help kids cultivate a cycle of hope for their days, bringing them back (and o...

2018-07-1820 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Do Bad Things Happen? with Lisa HarperIt doesn't take long living in the world to realize that bad things happen. And they are really unavoidable. Bad things happen to all people. But why? Is God not in control? Does He care? Bad things happen ultimately because sin has broken the world. God is still in control, although He is not the author of evil or bad things. As we see through Job, God does allow bad things to happen, though. Listen in to hear more.

How can we help them know that Jesus is a better friend than any person we could know on earth?

Prov 12:10 even says that the righteous care for their animals. But, is my pet in heaven? Well, that's more complicated. Romans 8:18-27 says Jesus came to redeem all creation. The Bible doesn't say exactly what happens to our pets, but we do see that there are animals in the new heavens and new earth (Is 11:6-7). Could God raise our pets? Sure. Will He? Listen in for more.

Talking about blood is normally not something we do much unless one of our children is literally bleeding, so to think of Jesus' blood and it's symbolism in the cup that we take is a little weird. Not to mention, SNACK TIME! Bread and juice? Of course every kid wants in on that. Listen in to hear how Brittany and her family have talked about this ordinance with their kids.

Although this is probably not a question your kids will ask directly, it is an important conversation for you to begin with them to help them understand that when they hear God referred to as Father, He is the only perfect parent - loving, providing, protecting, and caring perfectly for them.

2018-05-2520 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskHow Do We Know Jesus Was A Real Person? with Aaron ArmstrongWith historical evidence - both inside the Biblical text and outside it - we can certainly confirm that Jesus was a person who lived in a certain time of history from the town of Nazareth. What must be taken on faith is the rest of the story: that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, took on the wrath of God for sin on the cross, died, was resurrected, and ascended to heaven. Indeed, it is the greatest story ever told but is also foolishness to those who don't believe. It seems crazy! But it's true...

Jana is the Director of LifeWay Kids and brings a wealth of experience and passion for kids ministry, education, and curriculum writing. She and her husband, Michael, along with their three children reside in Nashville, TN. Why do we pray? If God really is in control and is all-knowing, shouldn't He know what we need and what we would ask for if we were praying anyway? God is in control and God does know. In fact, He knows BETTER than we do about what we need, but prayer is still SO valuable. The...

2018-04-3020 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskIf God Knows All Things, Why Do We Pray? with Becky KiserPrayer is the most important weapon we have against the enemy, and the Bible even says that Jesus intercedes for us while He sits at the right hand of the Father. Yet, there are often questions about the nature of prayer. Because it's a conversation with a God who we cannot see who knows all things and is entirely in control it seems like it may be pointless to voice our needs, our gratitude, and our worship because God already knows what we are going to pray before we pray it. Still, we see prayer as unbelievably powerful throughout...

With Barnabas PiperWhy would God, if He knew Adam and Eve would sin, put a tree in the garden that would sentence them to death if they ate from it? We know God is sovereign, and there also is need for humanity to obey. A love without choice is not love at all, so God gave us the opportunity to obey out of love. And yet, Jesus was not God's plan B. Even as consequences were being discussed of Adam and Eve's sin, God tells them that there will come a time when a Messiah will come to redeem w...

In this episode, we talk about how we should speak truth in as bite-sized portion for our kids as possible, but not watering it down so that it has a different meaning. We want our...

2018-04-1611 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Are There Multiple Bible Translations? with Brandon SmithThe work of translation cannot be emphasized enough. We want God's Word to be carried to every tribe and tongue so that they may read His Word for themselves in the language that they speak and even think in so that the Word of the Lord may dwell richly within them and also so that they might understand the gospel. We are so blessed to have so many translations of the Bible in English, and as we discover more manuscripts and have more archaeological evidence, we get closer, not farther away from what we know the original...
2018-04-1314 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Does God Call Us to Hard Things? with Scarlet HiltibidalSometimes God asks us to do things that are uncomfortable or challenging. We see it throughout Scripture, but we don't want it to be true of us. And, even when we step out in faith and do the hard things God has called us to do, it doesn't always work out like we hope. But, God is always in control and obedience s always what is most satisfying and brings the most peace, even when obedience leads us into difficult situations.

We'll talk about explaining creation, the fall, redemption, and restoration as a good foundation to build upon as they learn the stories in Scripture and realize that it all points to Jesus' sacrifice for our sin and ultimately, the end of the story, or His return to make things good like they were before sin entered the world. I hope that this will help you understand Scripture better, a...
2018-04-0215 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy is Good Friday Good? with Marty DurenGood Friday was a traumatic day - full of difficulty, pain, and shame for Jesus. Good Friday was the day that He carried His cross up to Golgatha and was crucified. Jesus was completely innocent of sin, but took on God's wrath on the cross so that we might be able to have a right relationship with God. Through His death, He paid for our sin with His blood, and through His resurrection, He guaranteed that the debt had been paid and sin and death had been ultimately defeated - and that one day all who trust Him will...
2018-03-3019 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Did Jesus Wait So Long to Come? with Brittany SalmonAs we read the Old Testament and all the times God promised to send a Messiah, Jesus' entrance into the world can seem like it took FOREVER. We read from Adam and Eve to Noah to David and on into the minor prophets, and God's people were yearning all along for a Savior, waiting on His arrival. Then, between the books of Malachi and Matthew were 400 years of silence, and God's people were just waiting. Why did God wait so long? This is one of those questions that we just don't have Scripture that answers it d...
2018-03-2819 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskHow to Talk with Kids About Hard Things From Before You Were A Christian with Jamie IveyWe talk a lot about what's different from before we were Christians to deciding to follow Jesus, but that doesn't mean it's super easy to talk about with our kids. That's no different for Jamie. Of course, we know that there's no weighting of sin in the Lord's eyes and that even one of the "tiniest" sins is deserving of death (Romans 6:23), there are some sins that do have weighter consequences. In Jamie's life, those "big sins" were premarital sex and abuse of alcohol, and sometimes we don't want to tell our kids because we don't want them to...
2018-03-2615 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Are There School Shootings? with Barnabas PiperIt shows the sin in the world and how sin has broken certain people, and that brokenness twists their minds and hearts that they feel they need to lash out. I hope that this helps my kids understand the profoundness of human need - that sin is constant and everywhere and our need for a Savior is obvious in all aspects of life and in every day. As Christians, what is our appropriate response? It has to be more than simple social posts, but we can DO something. We can advocate before God that He will do something about i...
2018-03-2319 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Did God Create the World? with Brian DembowczykThe quick answer is "God's glory," but it has far-reaching implications. Our lives are not for our own enjoyment or our own pleasure, but for Him. Why would God create a world He knew would rebel against Him? We have to let some tension hang here, as we don't know all the ins and outs of the mind of God, but we know God created us knowing we would fall. He knew He would send Jesus. This question screams His love to us, which drives to His glory. The more we understand His love, the m...

He talks with us about how to discuss eternity and these concepts with young kids, we talk about judgment houses and their versions of heaven and hell, (Anyone go to one of these in the early 2000s? Do churches still do these?) and how to raise kids who don't just seek Jesus for "fire insurance," but live obedient and faithful lives.

2018-02-1915 minEveryday Theology + Questions Kids AskWhy Did Jesus Have to Die? with Rachel SwansonUltimately, God is in control, and He dearly loves Jesus and also dearly loves us. Sin separated us from God, and only Jesus' sacrifice could fix this separation. Jesus was completely sinless, so He was the only suitable sacrifice to pay for sin before a holy, perfect, sinless God. Jesus died so that we could have a relationship with God forever, but also so that we could have that relationship now with abundant life in His presence.

Helping kids understand this truth is so important - that kids understand that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are One. It would be easy to move into believing that we actually serve three Gods (tritheism) or to believe that God is One, acting in three different ways (modalism). Either of these take us to a place we don't want to be - so how do we explain that God is three Persons? Micah is h...

Over and over again, He says that He is happy and this He is happy with us. Of course, we are sinners and of course we need the justification of Jesus, but if we trust Jesus, God see His child when He looks at us. Ultimately, He sees Jesus' work on the cross.
