Carpooling with Jesus | Bible Stories for Kids Devotionals Daily Devotional for Kids Daily Christian Kids Devotional

Hey Carpool Crew… I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here! Fridays feel great because the weekend is almost here—but today we’re talking about a joy that’s even stronger than Friday joy: the joy that comes from remembering God’s promises. Joshua 21:45 (CSB) says, “None of the good promises the Lord had made… failed. Everything was fulfilled.” God’s people went through years of waiting, wandering, and battles—but when they finally looked back, they realized something amazing: God kept every single promise. Not some. Not most. All of them. That’s why God’s promises bring real joy. When you remember what God has done, you can trust what He will do next. Even when life feels stressful or uncertain, God’s promises are steady and strong. So today, think of one promise from God. Say it out loud. Share it with a parent or a friend. And trust that God will keep working in your life. Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.

Hey Carpool Crew… Happy Thursday! Today we’re talking about how choosing gratitude leads to joy—even when your week feels long or a little hard. 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 (CSB) reminds us to rejoice always, pray constantly, and give thanks in everything. Paul wrote this to people who were facing real challenges, and he reminded them that gratitude isn’t about pretending things are perfect—it’s about remembering that God is still good. Gratitude is like a switch. When you choose it, joy lights up. Even on tough days, God helps you notice the good—small blessings, kind moments, and reminders that He is close. So today, try this: name three things you’re thankful for. Then thank God for being near—because He always is. Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.

Hey Carpool Crew… Happy Wednesday! I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here as we continue our Advent journey toward Christmas. Today we’re talking about the joy that comes from God’s good news. Isaiah 52:7 (CSB) reminds us how beautiful it is when someone brings good news—peace, salvation, and hope. Isaiah wrote this hundreds of years before Jesus was born, but the message was clear: God hasn’t forgotten His people. A Savior is coming. That’s why the good news of Jesus still brings joy today. When you remember that Jesus loves you, forgives you, and is always near—joy follows. And just like good news changes your day, God’s good news can change your heart. So today, look for one way to pass that joy along—encourage a friend, help a sibling, or give someone a kind word. Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.

Hey Carpool Crew… Happy Tuesday! I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here as we continue our Advent journey toward Christmas. Today we’re talking about a joy that doesn’t depend on circumstances. Habakkuk 3:17–18 (CSB) reminds us that even when everything goes wrong, we can still rejoice in God. Habakkuk lived in a really hard time, but he chose joy—not because life was easy, but because God was still good. That’s the kind of joy Jesus gives us. It doesn’t disappear on hard days. It stays because Jesus stays with you. Even when life feels stressful or confusing, His joy can still shine through. So today, tell Jesus what’s on your heart. Look for one good thing. And remember—joy comes from Jesus, not your circumstances. Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.

Hey Carpool Crew… Happy Monday! I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here as we keep moving through Advent toward Christmas. Today we’re talking about joy—the kind that stays with you because it comes from Jesus. John 15:11 (CSB) says, “I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.” Jesus didn’t say, “Go find joy.” He said, “I’m giving you My joy.” This joy doesn’t disappear on hard Mondays, rough mornings, or stressful school days. It stays because it comes from Jesus. So today, ask Jesus for His joy. Look for one good thing. Smile. Encourage someone. Let His joy be with you all day. Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.
