Hey friends! Today we’re jumping back into the Upper Room with Jesus and His disciples. Jesus had already washed their feet and shared lots of amazing things, but He wasn’t done yet! He had one more super important promise to make: He was sending someone very special — the Holy Spirit! Jesus explained that soon, He would go to be with the Father, but He wouldn’t leave His friends alone. The Holy Spirit would come to help them! He would show the world what’s true about sin, and how through Jesus, we can be made clean and whole again. The Spirit would guide the disciples (and us!) into all truth, and always point us back to Jesus and the Father. Even though the disciples felt confused and maybe even a little sad, Jesus promised that their sorrow would turn into joy. They just had to trust Him — because He knew exactly what they needed! So, grab your Bible and let’s explore how the Holy Spirit is our faithful guide, our helper, and a forever friend sent by Jesus Himself! Podcast Questions: What were the disciples beginning to understand that made them sad?
Jesus reassures the disciples by telling them he has overcome what?
What does Jesus do after he reassures the disciples?

What can tiny ants teach us about BIG work? 🐜💪 Quite a lot, actually! In this episode, Mr. Ken takes us all the way back to the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve were given some of the very first work to do. But after sin entered the world, work became a whole lot harder. Thankfully, Proverbs points us toward a tiny teacher with a mighty work ethic: the ant! Discover why God created us to work, what ants can teach us about laziness and diligence, and how even the work you do right now—at school, at home, with friends, or on a team—can be used for God’s glory. You might be surprised by just how important your work already is! 🌱🐜✨ Podcast Questions: What did God make the world out of?
Have you ever told a lie because you thought it would make things easier?

Along the way, we’ll discover why dishonesty can seem sweet at first but leave us with something much worse (a mouthful of gravel?! 😝). We’ll also see how honesty gives life to the people around us and points toward an incredible future Jesus is preparing—complete with a beautiful city, a crystal-clear river, and the tree of life. 🌳✨ So, when you have a choice between honesty and dishonesty, what kind of life will you build? One that tastes like gravel…or one that looks like Jesus? Listen to find out! Podcast Questions: Who was dishonest and denied knowing Jesus three times?
