Kids Bible Stories

Mark 6:6–13 

Jesus sent out the Twelve — two by two, with nothing but a walking stick and their sandals. Why twelve? And why send them out with nothing? In this episode, we go all the way back to Jacob and the twelve tribes of Israel to discover what Jesus was really doing — and we learn that the power to do His work is always a gift He gives, never something we pack, earn, or figure out on our own.

In this episode:

 Why the number twelve points all the way back to Jacob and the twelve tribes of Israel

 How the first twelve tribes struggled to do their job — and how Jesus started fresh with a new twelve

 What it meant to travel with "nothing" — and who the disciples had to trust

 What it means to repent

# 421 : Why Twelve? - Mark · Part 20 ·

Mark 6:1-6

Jesus goes home to Nazareth — and sees the people who watched Him grow up. They know His mother, His brothers, His sisters. Isn't that just the carpenter? They think and when He stands up in the synagogue and teaches with astonishing wisdom, they don't fall to their knees. They fold their arms.

In this episode we walk through the verse that says "And he could do no mighty work there." Was Jesus not strong enough? Not for one second. Kids will learn why the King held back the joy of His kingdom from a town that had shut the door on Him — and why sometimes a big danger isn't doubting Jesus, but getting used to Him.

WHAT KIDS WILL LEARN

 "His own country" / "hometown" means Nazareth — the village where Jesus grew up (He was born in Bethlehem, raised in Nazareth)

 Being astonished by Jesus is not the same as believing in Jesus

 Calling Him "the son of Mary" instead of "the son of Joseph" was a quiet insult

 "Could do no mighty work" does not mean Jesus lacked power — it means it would have been wrong for the King to pour out His kingdom's joy on people who had rejected Him

 Jesus' miracles are signs, not tricks — windows showing the King has arrived

 Faith is a gift from God, not something we work up on our own

#420: Isn't That Just the Carpenter? · Mark · Part 19

Mark 10:35–45

In today’s episode, we hear the surprising story of James and John asking Jesus a very big question — and how the other disciples reacted! 

Jesus teaches them (and us!) something amazing — true greatness doesn’t come from bossing people around or being first. It comes from serving others, just like Jesus did. He is the King of kings, but He came to help, love, and give His life for us.

At the end, we talk about simple ways kids can follow Jesus’ example this week - to keep their eyes open for ways to be a helper. Helpers serve and whether it’s big or small, it makes a difference. 

They are reminded that when you help someone, you are serving — just like Jesus did. He is our perfect example.------------

SUMMER SERIES: Who Wants to be First? (379)

1 Kings 10:1-14, 22-24 & Ecclesiastes 2:1-11

We're pressing pause on our Mark series for our summer series of listener favorites! This episode comes from a much-loved series from our listeners called the Solomon series. If you'd like to start at the beginning, simply go to episode 277.

Today we begin to comprehend just how wealthy Solomon was. With his wealth and his wisdom, Solomon tells us anything he saw and wanted, he got. This might sound incredible, but Solomon learned a very valuable lesson: everything is meaningless without God. Things or fame—none of that will satisfy us fully, because what we are really searching for is God. 

The Creator of our souls is the One who satisfies us. The kids will hear examples of this so they can begin to understand how this applies to their own lives.

Matthew 27:50-56, 2 Chronicles 3:8-14 & Hebrews 4:14, 16

In our last episode, we heard how Solomon built the temple. Today, we're going to hear about something incredible that happened at that very temple on the day Jesus was crucified. 

You've probably talked about Easter with your kids before — today we're going to help them connect the dots between the veil being torn and what Jesus's death and resurrection really means.

SUMMER SERIES: Dan the Great Fish

Mark series · Part 18 | Scripture: Mark 5:35–43

The messengers arrive with the worst news a father could ever hear: Jairus's little girl has died. "Why bother the teacher anymore?" But Jesus turns to the heartbroken dad and says, "Don't be afraid; just believe." 

Together we walk the long, silent road to Jairus's house and witness one of the most tender moments in the Gospel of Mark — Jesus taking a little girl by the hand and calling her back to life. 

Jairus came asking for a healing. Jesus gave him something far greater. A gentle, hope-filled episode for talking with your kids about a hard subject — death — and the One who is stronger than it.

In This Episode

 "Not dead but asleep" — and why the mourners laughed

 A gentle look at "chronological snobbery": the people of Jesus' day knew exactly what death was — they weren't gullible

The Big Idea

 This story answers the question the disciples first asked back in the storm — "Who is this?" — Jesus is the One with power over death itself. And He uses that power tenderly: mighty enough to raise the dead, gentle enough to hold a little girl's hand. 

It points us forward to Jesus' own death and resurrection, and to the hope for everyone who trusts Him.

#419: Not Dead, but Asleep - Mark Part 18

Scripture: Mark 5:21–35

Series: Mark part 17

 In today's episode, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark and meet a woman who had been sick for twelve years. She had tried everything. Spent everything. And nothing had worked. But she had heard about Jesus—and she believed that if she could just get close enough to touch His cloak, she would be healed.

And she was. Instantly.

But then Jesus stopped and asked, "Who touched me?" The disciples thought it was a silly question—everyone was touching Him! So why did Jesus stop and ask?

Today we find out. 

We also meet Jairus—an important man who falls at Jesus' feet and begs Him to come heal his dying daughter. Jesus agrees and heads that way. But then the news arrives: "Your daughter is dead."

We will have to wait until next time to find out what happens next…

In This Episode We Talk About:

 Why Jesus stopped

 What a superstition is and why Jesus didn't want the woman to have one

 What faith really means for young kids today

 How to trust Jesus with the things that feel scary or hard

# 418: Why Did Jesus Stop? - Mark Part 17

Series: Mark Part 16Scripture: Mark 5:1–20

In today’s episode, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark and see Jesus step onto the shore in the region of the Gerasenes. There, He meets a man who is suffering terribly and living among the tombs. 

This story includes demons, sometimes the Bible also calls them unclean spirits, but we handle this carefully and remind kids of the most important truth: Jesus is stronger than darkness.

As Jesus speaks with authority, the unclean spirits must obey Him. The man who had been alone, hurting, and in bondage is restored. When the people come and see him, he is sitting with Jesus, dressed, and in his right mind. What a beautiful picture of mercy and rescue.

This episode helps kids see that Jesus does not only save and restore people so they can keep it to themselves. He gives His people a story to tell. Wherever Jesus places us—at home, with friends, at school, or in our community—we can tell others how much the Lord has done.

Today’s key truth:Jesus is stronger than darkness, full of mercy, and wants us to share his goodness with others.

#417: Go Home and Tell Them - Mark part 16

Scripture: Mark 4:35–41

Series: Mark Part 15

Have you ever been in a storm and felt afraid? In today’s episode, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark and hear the incredible story of Jesus calming the storm.

After a long day of teaching, Jesus and His disciples crossed the Sea of Galilee by boat. Many of the disciples were experienced fishermen, so they knew storms well—but this storm was terrifying. 

Today’s Key Truth:Storms do not mean Jesus has left us or stopped loving us. Jesus is powerful over creation, and He is also loving toward His people. When life feels scary, we can turn to Him, pray, ask for help, and remember His love shown clearly at the cross.

This episode is part of our Gospel of Mark series. Keep listening as Mark shows us, little by little, who Jesus truly is.
