00:03 It's time to share there's a world out there
00:07 Looking for a friend like Jesus
00:10 It's time to share there's a world out there
00:13 Let's tell them that He loves us so
00:17 Let's tell them that He loves us so
00:20 Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time
00:26 Hi, boys and girls.
00:27 Did you ever meet someone who says know it all.
00:29 No matter what subject you bring out,
00:31 this person always claims to have the last word on it.
00:35 And whatever you know,
00:36 they think they know it little more.
00:38 Or if you can do something they say,
00:40 they can do it better.
00:42 I know a little boy like that.
00:44 He says, your dog can run fast,
00:46 but mine can run faster.
00:48 Or if someone tells him
00:49 something that just happened like,
00:51 you know, may be a newscaster just predicted a hurricane
00:54 he would say, oh, I already knew that.
00:57 Whether he did or not,
00:58 it's never good to brag, is it boys and girls.
01:01 Well, I have in my hand a little owl.
01:04 Now this owl is special to me,
01:06 because it belong to my daughter, Becky,
01:08 when she was just a little girl.
01:10 You can tell it's been quite loved, can't you.
01:12 You know owls are said to be very wise,
01:15 but they're actually no smarter than,
01:17 you know, many other birds.
01:19 But somehow they kind of give
01:20 the impression that they know a lot.
01:22 Maybe that's because
01:24 they keep still most of the time.
01:27 The Book of Proverbs in the Bible
01:29 has a lot to say about the words
01:31 that come out of our mouth.
01:32 It tells us that bragging is not a good thing.
01:35 I like to read that for you in the Bible.
01:37 I wanna just turn here to Proverbs and it's in Chapter 17
01:41 and it's in verse 28.
01:43 It says, "Even a fool,
01:45 when he holdeth his peace is counted wise."
01:50 You know, you might want to look in the Book of Proverbs
01:52 sometimes soon and see how many verses
01:54 you can find that talk about the words we speak.
01:57 We can learn a lot from this book, can't we?
01:59 You know, the little boy who loved to brag,
02:02 who always had to be
02:03 smarter or faster or better than everyone else.
02:07 He'll have some very hard lessons to learn, won't he.
02:10 For others will soon get tired of hearing him brag.
02:15 So instead of bragging about yourself and
02:18 why not try looking for good things about other people.
02:21 You know, if your friend does well in his spelling test,
02:24 tell that you really admire her work,
02:26 or if your sister, your brother, if they sing really well,
02:29 tell them you like to hear them.
02:31 And if your teacher gives you a special smile,
02:34 smile right back to her,
02:36 you know, she will appreciate it.
02:37 Find the good in others,
02:39 its lots of fun.
02:40 And you'll have more friends than if,
02:42 than if you keep bragging about yourself, won't you.
02:45 Now listen carefully as Ranger Jim
02:47 tells us about a real owl.
02:56 Hey, boys and girls.
02:57 We've got something special today.
02:58 I want you to see this.
03:00 Our friend Beverly is back with us,
03:01 and we have the Short-eared Owl.
03:03 Beverly how long did you had this creature?
03:04 We've had him for just little over a year.
03:07 I see, it looks like he is having a problem with
03:10 some kind, is he lost a wing.
03:12 This one is an amputation,
03:14 because he did lose a wing due to an injury.
03:16 I see and was this with the vehicle
03:18 or guy-wire or something like that or--
03:20 Probably had been hit by a car, yes.
03:22 I see, and so without your good loving tender care,
03:25 this creature would been, have died.
03:26 He would have had and put to sleep, yes.
03:28 Ah, well. Thank you,
03:30 thank you on behalf of all us,
03:31 that you taken such care.
03:33 He appears to be healthy.
03:34 Well, we hope so. Is he a good boy?
03:37 He is very interesting bird, yes, yes.
03:39 I see, good. About the Short-eared Owl,
03:41 I understand there's some different things
03:43 about his nesting habits.
03:44 Well he does nest differently than the other birds.
03:48 The other birds tend to
03:49 either cavity nest or created nest in a tree.
03:52 This bird actually nest on the ground.
03:54 An owl that nest on the ground.
03:56 Yes, how unusual.
03:57 Does he build it out of grass or--
03:59 They pull together a few sticks and grass
04:02 usually in a clump of grass.
04:04 I see, in a metal situation.
04:05 I see, then do they follow that
04:07 typical characteristics of the owl
04:08 as the father owl assist the female
04:11 when she is incubating.
04:12 Yes, yes, he still does do that for her.
04:14 I see, he comes and feeds her and takes care of her
04:16 like that in which typically
04:18 when the babies hatched then both
04:19 parents go out and go to work.
04:20 That's right. I see and well,
04:22 owl this size or what kind rodents could they eat.
04:25 They couldn't attack
04:27 something as large as rabbit, could they?
04:28 No, his diet primarily would be very small rats,
04:30 mice, maybe an occasional small chipmunk.
04:34 I see like it, does they prey on birds at all?
04:37 Very rarely, because of their size,
04:39 but if it's slow moving bird that is an outside possibility
04:43 for their diet. I see, okay.
04:44 And they normally raise what, two or four young.
04:47 Between two and four depending on
04:49 the quality of the prey of that season,
04:51 how many young they will raise.
04:53 I seem what about this, is this animal
04:56 is here a year around resident or is he--
04:59 These birds actually migrate.
05:01 The other owls are not migrating species.
05:03 I see, and this one actually does migrate.
05:04 Some very interesting things about this pride.
05:07 Much different than the other birds.
05:08 How long would this owl live in the wild?
05:12 These owls can have a life expectancy
05:14 between 10 and 15 years as well.
05:17 Well, isn't that interesting.
05:18 Now, his call, is it similar
05:20 to the Hoot Owl or Screech Owl or is it--
05:22 It's entirely different, unfortunately
05:24 I'm not I'm not good mimicker,
05:25 so I couldn't tell you.
05:26 But it is different than those
05:27 you would not recognize that as a typical owl call.
05:30 I see, so there are quite a number of things
05:33 that are different about this owl.
05:34 Tell me about I notice when owls close their eyes,
05:37 there seem to be an additional eyelid there.
05:40 They do have third eyelid,
05:42 and that is to act like little windshield wiper on
05:45 their eyes allowing light that is transparent
05:48 or translucent, that's not transparent.
05:50 It doesn't let everything through,
05:52 but does let light through,
05:53 so that it helps them see even when they are blinking.
05:57 Must be that God knew that
05:58 this owl would be out hunting and there would be a
06:00 dirt particulars in the air perhaps rain drops,
06:02 or even snowflakes and He knew
06:05 that he would need something like a windshield wiper.
06:06 That and that he needs to have
06:08 excellent vision at all times to catch his prey.
06:11 I see, what about their hearing,
06:12 is their hearing quite acute?
06:14 Actually they have found that some owls
06:16 can hunt by hearing alone, their hearing is so good.
06:19 I know. When it's night time,
06:21 they don't always hunt as easily
06:24 as we give them credit for by sight,
06:26 because it's still very difficult to see at night,
06:29 so he does have the extra ability of the
06:31 excellent hearing to help him along.
06:33 I see, tell me about his feathers.
06:35 Now I know the Great Horned Owl
06:36 and other Barred Owl perhaps
06:38 that their feathers are so soft,
06:39 the edges are so soft that they are silent in flight,
06:41 is that true with this owl as well.
06:43 That's still true with all, this owl as well.
06:45 I see, except he does
06:46 have extremely long wings for an owl,
06:48 because he does swoop back and forth
06:50 chasing his prey more like a hawk than an owl.
06:53 Oh, I see, like out on a prairie or an open farm lot,
06:56 or something like that rather than perching
06:57 and coming down on his prey and attack,
07:00 he swoops back and forth.
07:01 That's right, very interesting.
07:03 So let me ask you a question about this
07:04 you call him the Short-eared Owl.
07:07 Yes, now, why we call him that?
07:09 I see that he has little bit of an ear showing here.
07:12 Well, that's not true ear of course,
07:14 that's just a feather tuft.
07:15 His ears are actually hidden behind the facial disc here.
07:19 But he does have little feather tufts that
07:22 will come up some times when he
07:23 wants them to that reassemble ears.
07:26 I see, and he will put them up when he feels like it.
07:30 I see, but not nearly as prominent
07:32 as that in a Screech Owl or the Great Horned Owl.
07:34 That's correct, I see get that,
07:36 but he still has those beautiful, beautiful
07:38 yellow eyes, doesn't he? Yes, yes.
07:40 And so may I just thank you on behalf of
07:42 all the boys and girls,
07:43 who watch our show and myself
07:44 for being here to care for animals
07:47 like this and I know that some time is a thankless job.
07:49 But that's a Jesus person
07:52 that takes cares of this injured animals
07:54 and these things that unfortunate enough
07:56 to have an accident in nature
07:57 and encounter it what many people would believe.
08:00 Boys and girls they are many accidents in nature.
08:02 Animals are injured some time, terribly injured and then
08:05 prove fatal for them quite often.
08:07 And so we have friends like our friend,
08:09 Beverly, here and others that help
08:11 to care for these creatures.
08:12 And once again He is a God of love.
08:15 And boys and girls, if you have a pet,
08:17 Jesus expects you to love that pet
08:20 and to take care of it, okay.
08:21 If you are old enough to have a pet,
08:24 you take care of it, okay.
08:25 You give it fresh water and its food regularly, okay.
08:27 Then you will show, Jesus, that you appreciate Him.
08:30 Because as always when I talk to you on TV
08:34 remember don't forget to tell, Jesus, you love Him,
08:38 because He really does love you.
08:47 Hello boys and girls.
08:49 Today's text will be given to us by Michelle.
08:52 "If God be for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31.
08:57 And that's true now and was true a long time ago
09:00 when Joshua, Caleb and ten of their friends
09:03 went into the land of Canaan.
09:08 Twelve spies went to spy on Canaan,
09:10 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:13 What did they see when they spied on Canaan?
09:15 Ten were bad and two were good.
09:18 Some saw the giants strong and tall
09:20 Some saw grapes in clusters fall
09:23 Some saw that God was in it all
09:25 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:29 Twelve spies went to spy on Canaan,
09:32 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:35 What did they see when they spied on Canaan?
09:37 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:40 Some saw the giants strong and tall
09:42 Some saw grapes in clusters fall
09:44 Some saw that God was in it all
09:47 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:49 Ten were bad, two were good.
09:55 So remember boys and girls,
09:57 ten were bad and two were good.
09:58 Just remember you and God can do anything,
10:01 so keep singing for Him.
10:12 Hello, I haven't met you before.
10:14 My name is Rahab, I'm new here.
10:17 I used to live in Jericho.
10:19 My home was part of the city walls,
10:22 well before they were destroyed that is.
10:24 I'll tell you my story.
10:26 One day two men came to my home,
10:28 they are important looking men.
10:30 I learn that they were Israelites.
10:32 Joshua, their leader had sent them to Jericho to spy
10:36 on Jericho to see what the city was like,
10:38 because their Lord had instructed
10:39 them to destroy Jericho.
10:42 Later two guards came to my home,
10:44 I wasn't surprised at all.
10:45 I knew that the king had been very
10:47 worried about the Israelites.
10:49 He knew that his army was stronger then theirs,
10:52 but that he didn't stand a chance against them,
10:54 because of their God.
10:56 He'd also heard how they had
10:57 destroy so many others cities nearby.
11:03 I was faced with such a difficult decision.
11:05 I didn't know if I should help them escape,
11:08 because if I did and the king heard about it,
11:10 he had me killed.
11:12 But yet I believed in their God.
11:14 I had heard how He had
11:16 helped them escape from Egypt
11:19 and how He had parted the Red Sea
11:20 for them to walk across on dry land.
11:22 He had given them the Land of Canaan.
11:25 He was the true God.
11:29 So I hid them upstairs and I told the guard
11:32 that they had just
11:33 missed the spies and if they hurried up the gate,
11:35 they could probably still catch them.
11:37 So the guards left,
11:38 and I helped the spies out my window,
11:40 they climb down a rope.
11:43 I wouldn't have been able to climb down a rope,
11:46 the city's walls are really tall,
11:49 but they did it fine, I'm sure the Lord helped them.
11:51 They escaped to safety because of me,
11:53 but before they left I asked them two things.
11:56 First I asked them,
11:58 if they would please be kind to my family and I
12:01 and spare us when they destroy the city.
12:03 I also ask them for a sign of God's protection.
12:07 As a sign they gave me a scarlet coat
12:10 to hang out of my window.
12:12 I don't know what exactly it was for,
12:14 but they said that it was,
12:17 so that when the Israelites approached
12:19 that they would see it and know which home is mine.
12:21 I was fine with that.
12:23 They also told me that when as soon as they left,
12:27 I need to get all of my family into my home,
12:29 because unless they were in my home
12:32 they wouldn't be spared when the city was destroyed.
12:34 So as soon they left I tied the coat out my window
12:37 and I gathered all of my family into my home
12:40 and we watch from the window each day.
12:43 The first day I was really curious,
12:45 how there gonna get into the city.
12:47 The king had barred all the gates shut,
12:50 but they didn't even try to come into the city.
12:54 All they did was marched around the city.
12:56 I don't know why?
12:58 I don't know what good it did,
12:59 but they just marched around the city in complete silence.
13:04 All I could hear from my window
13:06 was the occasional blast of rams horns
13:09 and the stamping of their feet.
13:10 Sometimes I couldn't even see them, it was so dusty.
13:14 Each day they came,
13:16 they marched around the city and then they left.
13:20 The people of Jericho start to laugh at them
13:22 wondering what their plan was.
13:24 How is this going to destroy their city they thought?
13:28 But on the seventh day instead of coming
13:31 and marching around one time they marched around
13:34 seven times in complete silence again.
13:37 But at the end of the seventh time,
13:39 they stopped in the prairies they blew their rams horns
13:44 really loud and for very long time
13:48 and then Israelites shouted.
13:50 It was so loud they were so many of them.
13:53 Then I could hear of the rumbling
13:55 as I watched my city walls collapse in front of me.
14:00 But my home it was part of the walls,
14:03 but it was still standing.
14:05 The Lord had kept His promise to me.
14:07 He had spared my family when He destroyed Jericho.
14:12 The Israelites rushed into the city,
14:15 but all they took out
14:16 was gold, and silver, and bronze, and iron.
14:19 And it wasn't even for themselves
14:21 it was for their Lord, can you imagine.
14:23 They could have become so rich,
14:25 but they took that money and gave it to their Lord.
14:29 I was feeling a little forgotten about
14:31 when the two spies came back to my home.
14:33 They gathered my family and I
14:35 and then they took us out of the city
14:37 and we watched while they set our city on fire.
14:41 We watched as our homes burn down.
14:44 But I wasn't sad, I was happy, I was excited.
14:48 I was going to spend
14:49 the rest of my life with the Israelites,
14:50 with the Israelite God as my God.
14:55 God had a plan for me before I even knew who He was
14:59 and I know that He has plan for you too.
15:20 The Lord is my light and my salvation.
15:29 Whom then shall I fear, whom then shall I fear?
15:38 The Lord is the strength of my life.
15:42 The Lord is the strength of my life.
15:47 Of whom then shall I be afraid?
15:57 Though a host of men were laid against me,
16:08 Yet shall not my heart be afraid;
16:18 And tho' there rose up war against me,
16:27 Yet will I put my trust in Him.
16:37 For in the time of trouble,
16:45 He shall hide me in His tabernacle.
16:54 Yea, in the secret places of His dwelling
17:03 shall He hide me,
17:11 And set me up upon a rock of stone.
17:31 The Lord is my light and my salvation.
17:40 Whom then shall I fear, whom then shall I fear?
17:49 The Lord is the strength of my life.
17:53 The Lord is the strength of my life.
17:58 Of whom then shall I be afraid?
18:06 Of whom then shall I be afraid?
18:34 Isn't that a wonderful story about Rahab.
18:37 You know, Jesus, keeps His promises every time.
18:41 I'm excited today to have, Kasia Nephew, with me.
18:44 Kasia, can you say hi to the boys and girls at home.
18:47 Hi, Well, you know, Kasia shared with me
18:50 some of her ideas of how she has witnessed for Jesus.
18:52 I thought it will be kind of nice
18:54 to ask her to come and share those ideas with you.
18:56 Can you do that Kasia?
18:58 Sure, great now, you have a school project
19:00 I thought was really nice.
19:01 Can you tell us about that, that you did at school?
19:05 Sure, my teacher found a program on the Internet
19:10 and it gives you a chance
19:12 for your whole classroom to witness for Jesus.
19:15 Now this particular program you are talking me about,
19:19 it was about you found a child that didn't have as much as
19:24 you have somebody else that really needed
19:26 food and clothing or something like that,
19:28 wasn't it? And can you tell us a little more about it.
19:31 Sure, wel, we each wrote a letter to her
19:36 and we told about ourselves
19:37 what we liked, we send a picture.
19:40 What country was she from?
19:43 She is from India. She was from India.
19:45 Now, you had some other things that
19:46 you wrote to her about.
19:48 Yes, we told her that Jesus loves her very much
19:51 and we also sent Bible scripts.
19:53 Well, that was the good thing.
19:54 Now, what else did you do for her?
19:56 Well, we would raise $12 every month
19:59 and send it to her and that would take care of schooling,
20:04 clean drinking water, good food, a mat to sleep on
20:08 instead of sleeping on the cold ground, things like that.
20:12 That was really good thing to do,
20:14 I bet she appreciated that.
20:15 And $12 doesn't seem like lot to you, and you, and I,
20:18 and those of you back home, does it?
20:20 But $12 in some countries of the world is a lot of money
20:23 and does all that good, doesn't it?
20:25 That was a really nice thing to do.
20:27 Now you brought a list with you
20:28 also of some other idea and show us things that,
20:31 that you do to witness for Jesus.
20:34 What are some of those ideas?
20:36 Well, I have here going to the hospital to visit people
20:40 who are sick, or you can collect food
20:44 for the people who don't have very much food.
20:46 And by doing that you can go to the manager
20:50 of a grocery store something
20:52 and ask if you can collect food for the needy.
20:55 And you can just put a big box outside of it and--
21:01 That maybe by the entrance
21:02 when you get ready to leave the grocery store.
21:05 Yeah, that's a good idea.
21:06 And people who buy their groceries,
21:09 they can see the sign and they can put
21:11 some of their groceries in there.
21:13 So at the end, you have
21:14 all sorts of different kinds of food
21:16 and you can make baskets and give it to people
21:20 who don't have very much food.
21:21 Well, that's a really good idea,
21:23 I like that idea Kasia.
21:24 What else have you thought of?
21:26 Well, you can help your neighbors.
21:28 And what would you do to help your neighbors.
21:31 Well, you can rake leaves, wash their dishes,
21:34 shovel snow, things like that.
21:37 It seems like there is a little something
21:38 we all could do, doesn't there.
21:40 Well, do you know what time it is Kasia?
21:44 Yeah, sure do. You do, what time is it?
21:47 Mailbox time. That's right.
21:49 Kasia, would you mind seeing
21:51 if we have any letters in our mailbox today, sure.
21:53 Okay, I hope we have lot.
21:56 I do too, I like it when we get lots of letters.
22:00 See we have any. Oh, my, yeah, we have a lot.
22:04 Oh, good, well let's see who we have some from.
22:08 We have from some from Kareston, Ieesha.
22:13 Oh, I like that name,
22:14 I haven't heard that name before.
22:15 Me neither. Jamie, all sorts of them.
22:19 Oh, good, Well, why don't you
22:22 come over and let's see if we can share some of those
22:23 with the boys and girls at home, okay.
22:27 Let's see this one here is from Kareston.
22:30 Let's see what Kareston has to say.
22:33 Oh, you know, what Kasia
22:35 I like that we have a picture today
22:37 and Kareston has sent us a picture,
22:39 so we know what she looks like.
22:40 Can you see that boys and girls.
22:42 Beautiful Kareston, thank you for sending the picture.
22:46 I hand that to you Kasia.
22:48 This letter says, dear Brenda,
22:51 my name is Kareston and I like Kids Time a lot.
22:53 Thank you, thank you Kareston. It's really neat.
22:56 I'm excited about trying some of those snacks
22:58 and they look very yummy and it's nice to
23:01 listen to the Bible stories too.
23:02 And Kids Time reminds me that I need to help share Jesus.
23:05 Well, that's want we all want to do, isn't it?
23:07 She says I help share Jesus in a nursing home
23:11 and my school would like,
23:12 would make cards with Bible verses in them
23:15 and then we would give one to each person
23:17 and we did that a lot.
23:18 And some times we would make bread
23:19 from them and other times we give them some fruit.
23:22 And at Christmas time, we did play about baby Jesus,
23:25 and made a lot of friends at the nursing home.
23:27 Even if it's a small difference, even if it's a small thing
23:32 I still think I make a difference,
23:34 sincerely, Kareston.
23:35 I think she makes a difference too,
23:36 don't you Kasia?
23:38 That was nice, why don't you read our next letter?
23:40 Okay, this one is from Ieesha.
23:42 Ieesha, that's beautiful name, isn't it?
23:47 I've never heard that name before.
23:50 Neither have I.
23:51 Okay, Oh, we have a picture here.
23:54 Oh, good, we have another picture
23:55 and I'll show the boys and girls
23:56 while you start reading the letter.
23:58 Here's Ieesha and she spells I,
24:02 what was that, my grandma eyes here.
24:04 I-E-E-S-H-A, Ieesha
24:07 that's beautiful name, isn't it?
24:08 This is Ieesha's picture. What does Ieesha tell us.
24:12 She says, dear Brenda, I'm Ieesha,
24:15 and I'm 7-years-old.
24:17 I can share Jesus with others by taking
24:20 them with me to church, your friend, Ieesha.
24:26 That was a really nice letter, wasn't it?
24:28 And taking to your friends to church,
24:29 that's nice thing to do too.
24:31 I have letter here, Kesia, from, Jamie.
24:34 Let's see what, Jamie, has to say.
24:38 And, Jamie, has a pictures for us.
24:41 And this is Jamie's picture.
24:43 Thank you, Jamie, for your picture.
24:45 Jamie says, dear Brenda,
24:46 I share Jesus with others by smiling at them
24:50 and not frowning.
24:51 I show I'm happy, because I have Jesus in my heart
24:54 and I'm 5-years-old and my name is Jamie.
24:57 My grandma helped me write my letter.
25:00 Oh, thank you.
25:01 You know, what boys and girls,
25:03 if you can't write, you don't have to
25:05 wait to get big to write a letter to Kids Time.
25:07 You can get an adult to help you, your mom,
25:09 your dad, or like Jamie did, her grandma
25:12 that was nice.
25:13 Now, Kesia, you have another letter for us.
25:17 What does your letter say?
25:20 Dear Brenda, I can share Jesus
25:29 with others by telling them stories of Jesus,
25:31 your friend, Marcus.
25:33 Oh, that was an--that's right by telling them stories.
25:36 When we tell stories of, Jesus,
25:38 to others, I love the Bible stories, don't you.
25:39 Yeah, and that is a way to share Jesus.
25:42 I think we might have time for one more.
25:44 Let's see here what this says.
25:47 Kesia, since you're guest today,
25:50 I'll let you read one more for us, okay.
