Why Is It Important To Have Eyewitnesses Tell About Jesus? (John 21:24-25)
“If I told my teacher that a UFO landed on the playground during recess, she’d ask for video proof,” says Logan, 9. “Same thing if someone said Jesus rose from the dead. I’d want to see the evidence.” That’s a fair request. Fortunately, the Bible doesn’t ask us to believe without evidence. The Apostle John […]

Why Did John Write About Jesus’ Miracles? (John 20:30-31)
“If I saw someone walk on water, I’d probably ask if they could teach me how to skip swimming lessons,” says Landon, 8. That could have been a request in Galilee too, when the word got around that Jesus had walked across the Sea of Galilee. But for the apostle John, Jesus’ miracles weren’t party […]

What Can We Learn From The Doubts Of Thomas? (John 20:24-29)
“If I were Thomas, I probably would have doubted too,” says Zoe, 11. “Dead people don’t usually come back.” That’s honest. It’s probably why Thomas has been known for centuries as “Doubting Thomas.” In John 20:24-29, we learn that Thomas wasn’t with the other disciples when Jesus first appeared to them after the resurrection. When […]

Why Do Some People Refuse To Hear God’s Word? (John 8:37-47)
“Some people are troubled by the things in the Bible they can’t understand,” said Mark Twain. “The things that trouble me are the things I can understand.” This was the case when the religious leaders heard Jesus teach in Jerusalem. Jesus’ teaching threatened their religious tradition, which caused them to plot his murder. Jesus told […]

What Kind Of People Will Enter God’s Kingdom?
“Not everyone who says to me, `Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father in heaven,” said Jesus (Matthew 7:21). “I think it means that whoever says something real fast and doesn’t mean it will not enter,” says Danielle, 9. If the speed of one’s speech […]

How Does God The Father Bring People To Jesus (John 6:41-59)? (Part 2 of 2)
“The Bible is like a magnet and the people are attracted to it,” says Angel, 12. “We all have a choice to stay in the darkness or be saved and go to the light.” Wherever you find the Bible widely read and taught in a society, you find freedom. Most people don’t realize that the […]

How Can You Be Sure You Will Live With Jesus Forever (John 5:24-30)?
“Jesus is on top of my ship. We are going to go to heaven,” says John, 5. Yes, Jesus is the captain of our salvation. Apart from him, we are ships in a storm headed for the rocks. A famous Spanish captain searched for the Fountain of Youth in Florida. Ponce de Leon never found […]
