Scripture: Mark 8:22–30

Who is Jesus? And how can we know what's really true about Him?

In today's episode, we travel with Jesus and His disciples to Bethsaida, where Jesus gently takes a blind man by the hand and restores his sight. Then, as Jesus and His disciples walk toward Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asks a question that changes the conversation:

"But what about you? Who do you say I am?"

We'll hear Peter's answer, learn what Messiah means, and discover why it's so important to know what God's Word actually says about Jesus.

Along the way, we'll encourage children to think carefully about what they hear, ask good questions, and remember this important truth: Being loud doesn't make something true. Being popular doesn't make something true. And sounding confident doesn't turn something false into something true.

My prayer is that children won't simply know what others say about Jesus, but will grow to know Him through Scripture and trust Him for themselves.

Scripture: Mark 8:14–21 .

Why were the disciples worried about one loaf of bread when Jesus was sitting in the boat with them?

In this episode, Jesus warns his disciples about the yeast of the Pharisees and Herod. The disciples think he is talking about bread, but Jesus is teaching them about unbelief.

Kids will learn how a tiny amount of yeast affects an entire loaf of bread, remember how Jesus fed thousands of people, and discover how unbelief can spread until it affects the way we think.

We’ll also reassure children that feeling worried or struggling with doubt is something we all experience, so they aren’t alone. When worry comes, we do not have to let it convince us that Jesus has forgotten us.

They can remember God’s faithfulness, pray, talk with parents, and take the next faithful step.

Luke 10:1–4, 17–20

We are taking a brief pause from our Mark series to bring back one of our most popular episodes from 2025.

In this week’s episode Jesus sends out 72 followers to share the good news. When they return, they are amazed — even the demons obeyed in Jesus’ name! But Jesus teaches them something even greater: “Do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

Jesus sent out 72 workers to prepare the way and tell people that God’s kingdom had come.

The disciples were amazed by the power they saw, like superheroes in real life.

Jesus reminded them that the greatest joy isn’t power — it’s knowing that our names are written in heaven.

If you believe in Jesus, you belong to Him forever. That’s better than any superpower.

Mark 8: 1-13

We continue our journey through Mark with the feeding of the four thousand. In a remote place with no way to purchase enough food, Jesus sees the hungry crowd and responds with compassion. Seven loaves and a few small fish could never feed thousands on their own—but Jesus is not limited by what his disciples have.

Kids will compare this miracle with the feeding of the five thousand from episode 423, discover what was similar and different, and consider why the Pharisees continued asking Jesus for a sign after all he had done.

This story reminds us that Jesus is compassionate and mighty. What seems impossible to us is never beyond him.
