Looking for a friend like Jesus
00:00:07.15\00:00:10.24
It's time to share
there's a world out there
00:00:10.25\00:00:13.63
Let's tell them

Hi, boys and girls.
00:00:24.33\00:00:25.52
Have you ever
tried to water ski?
00:00:25.53\00:00:27.69
It's lots of fun, isn't it?
00:00:27.70\00:00:29.73
As you can see by
looking at this water ski,
00:00:29.74\00:00:32.38
there is a special place
where you can put your foot.
00:00:32.39\00:00:35.07
See right here.
00:00:35.08\00:00:36.05
This looks like
a pretty big foot
00:00:36.06\00:00:37.57
would fit in here, doesn't it?
00:00:37.58\00:00:39.28
My friend Kim
loaned this to me today,
00:00:39.29\00:00:41.06
so I could show it to you.
00:00:41.07\00:00:42.87
You should always
wear a life jacket
00:00:42.88\00:00:44.34
whenever you water
ski and then you hold,
00:00:44.35\00:00:47.34
firmly to the
rope as the water boat
00:00:47.35\00:00:49.50
pulls you so fast, the
shore just passes by in a blur
00:00:49.51\00:00:53.69
and you're gonna go up and down
00:00:53.70\00:00:55.39
and around the lake or the bay,
00:00:55.40\00:00:57.47
and you'll feeling
like you're some kind of
00:00:57.48\00:00:59.28
miraculous water bird
just skimming over the water,
00:00:59.29\00:01:02.80
but when the boat slows down,
00:01:02.81\00:01:04.82
you're no longer a
miraculous bird, are you?
00:01:04.83\00:01:07.25
In fact, you're more like a rock
00:01:07.26\00:01:08.90
and you sink boom,
right down into that water,
00:01:08.91\00:01:12.12
with just your life
jacket keeping you afloat.
00:01:12.13\00:01:15.67
You know, some
people have learned to ski
00:01:15.68\00:01:17.43
on the water in their bare feet.
00:01:17.44\00:01:19.37
They still hold on to the rope
00:01:19.38\00:01:21.11
while the motor boat
nearly flies ahead of them
00:01:21.12\00:01:23.87
and beneath their bare feet
00:01:23.88\00:01:25.47
the water feels like
a freshly waxed floor,
00:01:25.48\00:01:28.64
just smooth and slippery,
but when the boat slows down,
00:01:28.65\00:01:32.58
bare foot's gears also sink.
00:01:32.59\00:01:35.57
Of course, there is a
way to plant your feet
00:01:35.58\00:01:37.15
on the water without sinking.
00:01:37.16\00:01:39.09
Can you guess what that is?
00:01:39.10\00:01:41.36
Oh, that's right.
00:01:41.37\00:01:42.95
You can walk right on top
of the water without sinking
00:01:42.96\00:01:46.19
if the water is
frozen and you can skim
00:01:46.20\00:01:49.45
so faster over that icy surface
00:01:49.46\00:01:51.78
that the air feels like,
wind blowing in your face.
00:01:51.79\00:01:54.87
That is if you
know how to ice skate.
00:01:54.88\00:01:57.71
Our Bible story today,
however, tells of a man
00:01:57.72\00:02:00.23
who walked on water,
and the water wasn't frozen.
00:02:00.24\00:02:04.00
He didn't water
ski or barefoot ski,
00:02:04.01\00:02:07.37
or even ice skate.
00:02:07.38\00:02:09.14
He looked to Jesus, and
Jesus performed a miracle.
00:02:09.15\00:02:13.16
You know, boys and
girls, Jesus can do anything.
00:02:13.17\00:02:16.92
And if you look at Him,
00:02:16.93\00:02:18.40
He'll do miracles for you
too, and you know He will.
00:02:18.41\00:02:21.94
Now, Ranger Jim
is going to show us
00:02:21.95\00:02:23.84
one of God's creatures
who lives in the water.
00:02:23.85\00:02:26.79
Hi there, boys and
girls, Ranger Jim here saying,
00:02:33.79\00:02:36.03
"Welcome to Nature Time."
00:02:36.04\00:02:37.54
We're glad you
could join us again today.
00:02:37.55\00:02:39.88
As usual we have something
you haven't seen before.
00:02:39.89\00:02:42.67
We have some fish
to show you today.
00:02:42.68\00:02:44.92
The first thing
we're gonna be showing you
00:02:44.93\00:02:46.23
is a small
bluegill that you can see
00:02:46.24\00:02:47.88
that we have in the jar here.
00:02:47.89\00:02:49.80
And the bluegill gets his name
00:02:49.81\00:02:51.17
from a tiny little
blue tab on his gill,
00:02:51.18\00:02:54.10
and he is a part
of the sunfish family,
00:02:54.11\00:02:56.85
includes the sunfish
and the bluegill, the bass.
00:02:56.86\00:02:59.83
They have a very
unusual way of reproducing.
00:02:59.84\00:03:02.82
The male goes out in
the spring of the year
00:03:02.83\00:03:05.34
and you may see this,
if you're walking around
00:03:05.35\00:03:07.34
a small pond or a lake.
00:03:07.35\00:03:09.07
You may see some
little round places
00:03:09.08\00:03:10.78
like this that are bright,
maybe the rocks are showing
00:03:10.79\00:03:13.47
and the rest of the
area around it is dark
00:03:13.48\00:03:15.37
and covered with silk.
00:03:15.38\00:03:16.75
If you look carefully,
you'll see Mr. Bluegill,
00:03:16.76\00:03:19.08
he is there
swimming around in the circle
00:03:19.09\00:03:20.93
fanning his tail and his fins,
00:03:20.94\00:03:23.48
and moving the water about
00:03:23.49\00:03:25.14
and he washes all of the
debris away from the sand
00:03:25.15\00:03:27.68
and the small rocks.
00:03:27.69\00:03:29.03
There is a
small depression there
00:03:29.04\00:03:30.90
and then he tries to entice
00:03:30.91\00:03:32.42
some beautiful young
lady bluegill to come,
00:03:32.43\00:03:35.24
when she is ready, her
eggs are developed in her body,
00:03:35.25\00:03:38.27
he entices her to
come, he swims around her
00:03:38.28\00:03:40.76
and courts her, and
ask if she like to come
00:03:40.77\00:03:42.98
and lay her eggs
in his little nest
00:03:42.99\00:03:45.05
and when she lays
her eggs in the nest,
00:03:45.06\00:03:47.08
the sun
reflecting off of the stones
00:03:47.09\00:03:49.54
and the sand
becomes very warm there
00:03:49.55\00:03:51.66
and sometimes the
young female will say,
00:03:51.67\00:03:53.62
"Yes, I like to
lay my eggs there."
00:03:53.63\00:03:55.53
So she lays her eggs
in his little round nest
00:03:55.54\00:03:58.18
and she swims away.
00:03:58.19\00:03:59.85
That's the last thing
00:03:59.86\00:04:00.83
she has to do with
raising her babies.
00:04:00.84\00:04:02.82
The male stays there
and he continues to defend
00:04:02.83\00:04:05.64
that little round spot.
00:04:05.65\00:04:06.77
You look for
them, well around a pond
00:04:06.78\00:04:09.06
or a lake and you'll see them.
00:04:09.07\00:04:10.67
He defends it from any one
00:04:10.68\00:04:11.69
that wants to come near there.
00:04:11.70\00:04:12.83
Any fish or any animal,
anything comes near that,
00:04:12.84\00:04:15.58
the bluegill would
dot on and attack it
00:04:15.59\00:04:17.49
and defend them until they hatch
00:04:17.50\00:04:19.01
and they're called fry.
00:04:19.02\00:04:20.35
They're tiny
little things like that,
00:04:20.36\00:04:22.39
you can hardly see.
00:04:22.40\00:04:23.63
If you see a school
of them in the water,
00:04:23.64\00:04:25.06
it looks almost
like dust in the water,
00:04:25.07\00:04:27.40
but that's the way
the bluegill reproduces.
00:04:27.41\00:04:30.72
And then we have a larger fish
00:04:30.73\00:04:32.23
over on the piece of wood
that we have with me to see
00:04:32.24\00:04:35.71
that has some beautiful
pink reflections on inside.
00:04:35.72\00:04:38.87
That's a rainbow trout.
00:04:38.88\00:04:40.66
Now the rainbow
trout loves to reproduce,
00:04:40.67\00:04:42.94
he loves to live in cold water.
00:04:42.95\00:04:45.17
He loves streams that
have cold water and stones.
00:04:45.18\00:04:47.84
He likes to hide
behind big rocks,
00:04:47.85\00:04:50.03
and he's a
predator, he swims out
00:04:50.04\00:04:51.62
and catches smaller fish,
but when he's ready to spawn
00:04:51.63\00:04:54.71
or when she is ready to spawn,
00:04:54.72\00:04:56.34
they spawn in the open water.
00:04:56.35\00:04:58.20
The female swims
along and lays her eggs,
00:04:58.21\00:05:00.48
they simply fall till the bottom
00:05:00.49\00:05:01.91
amongst all the rocks
00:05:01.92\00:05:03.40
and that's how they reproduce.
00:05:03.41\00:05:05.01
This fish is
technically is called
00:05:05.02\00:05:06.45
what we call a steelhead trout.
00:05:06.46\00:05:08.44
They live in Lake
Michigan and then they spawn,
00:05:08.45\00:05:10.84
they come up the very rivers
00:05:10.85\00:05:12.13
in which they themselves hatch,
00:05:12.14\00:05:14.40
a year or two before
00:05:14.41\00:05:15.76
and that's where
they lay their eggs.
00:05:15.77\00:05:17.69
And then the large
fish that we have here,
00:05:17.70\00:05:20.52
you see some eggs out
in front of this fish,
00:05:20.53\00:05:22.70
those are salmon eggs.
00:05:22.71\00:05:24.49
This fish is
called a King salmon
00:05:24.50\00:05:26.43
or a Chinook salmon,
and it is one of the largest
00:05:26.44\00:05:29.82
fresh water
species that we have.
00:05:29.83\00:05:31.89
This fish weighs about 20 pounds
00:05:31.90\00:05:34.40
and these fish grow
to be 85 maybe 90 pounds,
00:05:34.41\00:05:37.87
and those are
really huge, big fish,
00:05:37.88\00:05:41.19
but they all came
above by the same way
00:05:41.20\00:05:43.41
of these tiny
eggs that you see here.
00:05:43.42\00:05:46.05
The mother laid
them in the stream,
00:05:46.06\00:05:48.01
in the fall of the year,
00:05:48.02\00:05:49.09
her last act
after she lays the eggs,
00:05:49.10\00:05:51.23
she travels up the stream,
swimming against the water,
00:05:51.24\00:05:54.66
against the
current, up waterfall,
00:05:54.67\00:05:57.25
across rocks to the very sandbar
00:05:57.26\00:05:59.63
where she hatched
herself many years before
00:05:59.64\00:06:02.21
and she deposits her eggs.
00:06:02.22\00:06:04.32
Many times in the
stream, boys and girls,
00:06:04.33\00:06:05.99
I have watched
the female salmon,
00:06:06.00\00:06:08.02
as she comes up the stream
and she is laying the eggs,
00:06:08.03\00:06:10.12
it looked like a
little machine gun.
00:06:10.13\00:06:11.47
They're popping out of
the bottom of her belly
00:06:11.48\00:06:13.38
and they hid in the cold water
00:06:13.39\00:06:15.77
and the rocks
and they bounce along
00:06:15.78\00:06:17.45
and coming behind
her, is the daddy fish.
00:06:17.46\00:06:19.92
The male salmon and
he is spraying a material
00:06:19.93\00:06:22.72
called a milk is
the color of milk,
00:06:22.73\00:06:25.28
it looks at all the whirl
00:06:25.29\00:06:26.26
like he's
spraying milk on the eggs,
00:06:26.27\00:06:28.22
and that's
fertilization in the open water
00:06:28.23\00:06:30.29
we called it, okay,
00:06:30.30\00:06:31.43
and that makes the eggs hatch.
00:06:31.44\00:06:33.32
They fall down in the cold water
00:06:33.33\00:06:35.65
hidden from view
from most of the predators
00:06:35.66\00:06:38.17
that will find them,
almost all of the creatures
00:06:38.18\00:06:41.13
around the trout stream
00:06:41.14\00:06:42.51
or a salmon
stream love salmon eggs,
00:06:42.52\00:06:44.35
including gulls and
mink, and fish of all kind
00:06:44.36\00:06:47.51
and they feed upon those.
00:06:47.52\00:06:48.79
And many of the
small salmon perish,
00:06:48.80\00:06:51.18
the eggs perish
before they ever hatch.
00:06:51.19\00:06:53.26
But after two weeks or so,
there is a black spot forms
00:06:53.27\00:06:55.84
on that tiny little egg
00:06:55.85\00:06:56.98
and that's the eye of
the salmon that formed first,
00:06:56.99\00:06:59.68
and then eventually
after two or three weeks,
00:06:59.69\00:07:01.77
a tiny little fish
comes out of that egg.
00:07:01.78\00:07:03.95
You can imagine
how small they are.
00:07:03.96\00:07:06.12
They come out of that
and they live in the stream
00:07:06.13\00:07:08.13
for six months or so,
00:07:08.14\00:07:09.26
maybe eight months
until they're about this size.
00:07:09.27\00:07:12.18
And then on a warm spring day,
00:07:12.19\00:07:14.51
when the weather is just right,
00:07:14.52\00:07:15.74
when it's dark
at night, no moon,
00:07:15.75\00:07:17.67
the salmon begin to
swim down the stream
00:07:17.68\00:07:19.84
and they swim back
out into the ocean.
00:07:19.85\00:07:22.63
And that's where they
spend the next two years
00:07:22.64\00:07:24.72
depending upon their species,
00:07:24.73\00:07:26.01
sometimes as long as four years.
00:07:26.02\00:07:27.91
They leave this size.
They swim out in the ocean.
00:07:27.92\00:07:30.87
They grow, follow a path
all around for many years,
00:07:30.88\00:07:34.94
eating and
feeding and growing larger
00:07:34.95\00:07:36.69
and larger and larger,
from a tiny fish this size
00:07:36.70\00:07:39.76
until they're a humongous
00:07:39.77\00:07:41.31
big fish weighing 85
or 90 pounds sometimes.
00:07:41.32\00:07:44.25
And how do they
find their way back?
00:07:44.26\00:07:46.36
I have always
wondered about that.
00:07:46.37\00:07:47.99
When I was a young boy,
00:07:48.00\00:07:49.64
I wondered how the fish
can find their way back.
00:07:49.65\00:07:52.77
And when they come
back out of the ocean
00:07:52.78\00:07:54.32
they come into
the larger rivers,
00:07:54.33\00:07:56.18
they pass many
streams, the size of this one.
00:07:56.19\00:07:58.91
They pass Green
Creek or Mud Creek,
00:07:58.92\00:08:01.15
or Pike Creek,
or Johnson's creek,
00:08:01.16\00:08:03.69
or Mud River,
all of the streams.
00:08:03.70\00:08:06.86
They're still
smelling that scent.
00:08:06.87\00:08:09.07
That is their home stream,
00:08:09.08\00:08:10.33
that's what they're looking for,
00:08:10.34\00:08:11.62
until finally
they find the right one
00:08:11.63\00:08:14.13
and they turn and go up there.
00:08:14.14\00:08:15.73
And how can they do that?
00:08:15.74\00:08:16.80
Because our wonderful Creator
God gave them the ability,
00:08:16.81\00:08:20.03
one of the most sensitive
of all of the creatures
00:08:20.04\00:08:22.61
that God made is the salmon's
ability to detect scent.
00:08:22.62\00:08:26.28
And that's how they
come back to their stream.
00:08:26.29\00:08:27.87
You see, God wanted
this fish to come back
00:08:27.88\00:08:30.27
to perpetuate the salmon,
00:08:30.28\00:08:31.80
because it was
part of His creation.
00:08:31.81\00:08:33.52
Now I have
something in my pocket,
00:08:33.53\00:08:34.80
I want to use to
illustrate for you that.
00:08:34.81\00:08:36.92
I have a small bag here
and I have a tablespoon.
00:08:36.93\00:08:40.51
And boys and girls, this
is a tablespoon full of salt,
00:08:40.52\00:08:43.59
and this wonderful creature
that God made, this salmon,
00:08:43.60\00:08:46.67
if we would dissolve this salt
00:08:46.68\00:08:48.68
in 18 Olympic
size swimming pools,
00:08:48.69\00:08:51.78
this creature could
detect that amount of salt
00:08:51.79\00:08:54.97
in the
tremendous amount of water.
00:08:54.98\00:08:57.84
So once again, a
wonderful creature
00:08:57.85\00:09:00.29
that God has made for us
to see and enjoy, and study.
00:09:00.30\00:09:03.12
Boys and girls,
He's coming soon.
00:09:03.13\00:09:04.88
Ranger Jim looks
forward to that day,
00:09:04.89\00:09:06.45
we can go with
Jesus and go on a nature
00:09:06.46\00:09:08.72
hike through the universe.
What a time that will be.
00:09:08.73\00:09:11.01
Jesus, the one
that created can show us
00:09:11.02\00:09:12.96
just exactly how He made
it, we can appreciate it,
00:09:12.97\00:09:15.69
and love Him more for
His greater creative ability.
00:09:15.70\00:09:18.12
So once again,
Ranger Jim here saying,
00:09:18.13\00:09:20.60
don't forget to tell
Jesus that you love Him.
00:09:20.61\00:09:22.83
'Cause boys and girls,
He really does love you.
00:09:22.84\00:09:25.82
Hey, Buddy,
what are you playing?
00:09:35.12\00:09:37.17
I am playing a
song about sailing.
00:09:37.18\00:09:40.61
I know song about sailing too.
00:09:40.62\00:09:42.30
What is it? "Over The Sea."
00:09:42.31\00:09:44.00
Oh, that's such a good song.
00:09:44.01\00:09:45.51
Do you've a text for us?
00:09:45.52\00:09:46.80
Yeah, it's "For
as the heaven is high
00:09:46.81\00:09:49.31
above the earth,
00:09:49.32\00:09:50.29
so great is His mercy
toward them that fear Him."
00:09:50.30\00:09:52.72
Psalms 103:11.
00:09:52.73\00:09:54.91
I love "Over The Sea."
00:09:54.92\00:09:56.44
Boys and girls, let's
sing this one together.
00:09:56.45\00:09:58.19
Over the sea, over the
sea Jesus Savior pilot me
00:10:01.46\00:10:08.49
Over the sea, over the
sea over the jasper sea
00:10:08.50\00:10:15.35
Over and over like a mighty sea
00:10:15.36\00:10:22.29
Comes the love of
Jesus rolling over me
00:10:22.30\00:10:29.32
Wide, wide as the ocean
high as the Heaven above
00:10:29.33\00:10:36.23
Deep, deep as the
deepest sea is my Savior's love
00:10:36.24\00:10:43.10
I, though so unworthy
still am a child of His care
00:10:43.11\00:10:50.07
For His Word teaches me
00:10:50.08\00:10:51.78
that His love
reaches me everywhere
00:10:51.79\00:10:56.99
Over the sea, over the
sea Jesus Savior pilot me
00:10:57.00\00:11:04.01
Over the sea, over the
sea over the jasper sea
00:11:04.02\00:11:11.06
Over and over like a mighty sea
00:11:11.07\00:11:17.99
Comes the love of
Jesus rolling over me
00:11:18.00\00:11:25.64
Hi, today we're gonna make
00:11:34.45\00:11:35.47
my Aunt Brenda's
favorite Potato Corn Chowder.
00:11:35.48\00:11:39.37
I love it too.
00:11:39.38\00:11:40.67
My cousin, Linda Kay likes it
00:11:40.68\00:11:42.37
and Aunt Brenda
probably makes it
00:11:42.38\00:11:43.86
more than she wants to.
00:11:43.87\00:11:45.74
Well, read the recipe for you.
00:11:45.75\00:11:48.48
[Recipe appear onscreen]
00:11:48.49\00:11:53.75
Right here, I
already have the potato,
00:12:12.60\00:12:14.61
potatoes cooking and the onions.
00:12:14.62\00:12:17.89
And so I'm gonna
start with our cream corn.
00:12:17.90\00:12:21.55
Pour the cream corn in.
00:12:21.56\00:12:23.24
And I like to use regular corn
00:12:27.79\00:12:32.17
or corn off the
cob, just pour this in.
00:12:32.18\00:12:35.34
It just adds, it
adds a little crunch
00:12:35.35\00:12:37.15
to your soup
while you're putting it.
00:12:37.16\00:12:40.63
I didn't add this
recipe, it's optional,
00:12:40.64\00:12:42.77
but if you like corn,
then you can add this,
00:12:42.78\00:12:46.04
it's really good.
00:12:46.05\00:12:47.42
Now I'll add our
seasonings, add some salt,
00:12:47.43\00:12:52.68
need two little
pinches, spread that around,
00:12:52.69\00:12:57.79
then we'll add our celery salt,
00:12:57.80\00:13:01.86
put some of that
in. Stir that up.
00:13:01.87\00:13:07.93
We have our, also our soymilk
and I like better than milk,
00:13:07.94\00:13:13.56
but you can use any
kind of soymilk you want,
00:13:13.57\00:13:16.34
and this is just as a thinner,
00:13:16.35\00:13:18.13
you don't wanna,
you don't want too much.
00:13:18.14\00:13:21.24
We go over here and shake this.
00:13:21.25\00:13:23.95
Here we go.
00:13:26.44\00:13:27.60
You might wanna,
when you gotta shake it,
00:13:27.61\00:13:29.31
go over a sink or
something 'cause it spills,
00:13:29.32\00:13:32.24
sometimes it goes everywhere.
00:13:32.25\00:13:33.69
So we'll add some
of this as a thinner,
00:13:33.70\00:13:38.36
just a little bit.
00:13:38.37\00:13:39.87
Okay, stir that all up.
00:13:43.87\00:13:48.42
And if it looks too thick,
00:13:48.43\00:13:49.69
depending on what you like your,
00:13:49.70\00:13:52.18
how you like your soup,
if you like it thick or thin,
00:13:52.19\00:13:54.97
but just as a
thinner you can use soymilk,
00:13:54.98\00:13:58.99
if you like it thick,
00:13:59.00\00:14:00.57
you can use a
little bit of cornstarch.
00:14:00.58\00:14:02.68
And you just, you pour it
in and it thickens your soup.
00:14:02.69\00:14:06.25
I think I need to add
00:14:06.26\00:14:07.23
a little more soymilk to this,
00:14:07.24\00:14:08.60
maybe half a cup or so,
00:14:08.61\00:14:10.08
to getting a little bit thick.
00:14:10.09\00:14:13.40
Take this. It's
looking pretty good.
00:14:13.41\00:14:17.20
We'll add some
more just to thin it,
00:14:21.24\00:14:24.93
down a little bit, stir.
00:14:24.94\00:14:30.82
This is a really good,
good soup for a whole meal.
00:14:30.83\00:14:34.18
And you need as little salad,
00:14:34.19\00:14:35.31
maybe have your mom
make some rolls or something,
00:14:35.32\00:14:37.89
and it's perfect.
00:14:37.90\00:14:40.63
There you see,
that's all there is to it,
00:14:40.64\00:14:42.36
it's really simple
and easy and really good.
00:14:42.37\00:14:45.34
Well, remember, until next time,
00:14:45.35\00:14:47.48
keep cooking and eat healthy.
00:14:47.49\00:14:50.18
Come, I've a
wonderful story to tell you.
00:14:58.48\00:15:01.60
My name is Simon.
00:15:01.61\00:15:03.21
I'm a fisherman from
the village of Capernaum
00:15:03.22\00:15:05.34
on the Sea of Galilee.
I'm also known as Peter.
00:15:05.35\00:15:09.82
The name Peter was given to me
00:15:09.83\00:15:11.13
by the most wonderful man
00:15:11.14\00:15:12.66
to ever walk the
Earth, Jesus of Nazareth.
00:15:12.67\00:15:15.86
You know, perhaps I
should start at the beginning.
00:15:15.87\00:15:18.58
One day, as I was
getting my nets ready,
00:15:18.59\00:15:21.41
my brother Andrew
came running through me.
00:15:21.42\00:15:23.47
He was so very excited,
he was shouting and hollering
00:15:23.48\00:15:26.02
he could barely
catch his breath.
00:15:26.03\00:15:28.20
Once he did so, he told me
00:15:28.21\00:15:30.99
that he had found the messiah,
00:15:31.00\00:15:32.77
not only had he
found the messiah, he said,
00:15:32.78\00:15:34.82
He spent the day with him.
00:15:34.83\00:15:37.56
I didn't know what to
think of that statement.
00:15:37.57\00:15:39.85
You see, we
Israelites have long awaited
00:15:39.86\00:15:42.01
the coming of the messiah,
the promised one of God.
00:15:42.02\00:15:44.78
So I decided I would go
00:15:44.79\00:15:45.97
and see this messiah for myself.
00:15:45.98\00:15:49.05
You know, when
I first saw Jesus,
00:15:49.06\00:15:50.71
He looked like
any other man to me.
00:15:50.72\00:15:53.53
He didn't have a
hale or anything,
00:15:53.54\00:15:55.69
but yet He was very special.
00:15:55.70\00:15:57.91
He was humble, yet
so very sure of Himself.
00:15:57.92\00:16:02.55
You know what He did
at our first meeting?
00:16:02.56\00:16:04.66
He changed my name.
00:16:04.67\00:16:06.50
He said, "From now
you'll be called Peter."
00:16:06.51\00:16:09.37
You know, I always kind
of liked the name Simon,
00:16:09.38\00:16:12.64
but Jesus thought I
should be called Peter.
00:16:12.65\00:16:14.83
You see the name
Peter means Rock.
00:16:14.84\00:16:17.54
I never thought myself
as fitting a name like rock.
00:16:17.55\00:16:21.15
I never thought I
was very solid as a rock,
00:16:21.16\00:16:24.21
but the name Peter stuck.
00:16:24.22\00:16:26.75
We went home soon
after meeting Jesus.
00:16:26.76\00:16:29.21
A few days later,
00:16:29.22\00:16:30.46
Andrew and I were
fishing on the Sea of Galilee,
00:16:30.47\00:16:33.55
we could hear
shouting from the shore.
00:16:33.56\00:16:36.39
As we looked toward the
shore to see, who is shouting?
00:16:36.40\00:16:38.34
We could see, it was Jesus.
00:16:38.35\00:16:41.26
"Follow me," He was shouting,
00:16:41.27\00:16:43.43
and I will make
you fishers of men.
00:16:43.44\00:16:46.13
Fishers of men,
whatever could that mean?
00:16:46.14\00:16:52.30
I didn't understand
00:16:52.31\00:16:54.71
but the "Follow
Me" was clear enough
00:16:54.72\00:16:58.62
and I knew at that very minute
00:16:58.63\00:17:00.59
that whatever it was
that He was calling us to do,
00:17:00.60\00:17:03.33
it was by far more
important than our nets,
00:17:03.34\00:17:05.97
my business, or the boat.
00:17:05.98\00:17:08.06
And so, we followed
Jesus, my brother and I.
00:17:08.07\00:17:11.72
We were with him
constantly for three years
00:17:11.73\00:17:13.96
and saw Him do
many, many things.
00:17:13.97\00:17:16.87
I saw Him heals
many sick people.
00:17:16.88\00:17:19.57
Well, He can make
the walk, the lame walk.
00:17:19.58\00:17:23.39
He could even order the
wind and it would obey Him.
00:17:23.40\00:17:26.70
He did so many wonderful things.
00:17:26.71\00:17:28.49
He brought so much
joy into the world.
00:17:28.50\00:17:31.39
There's one event
that is very special to me
00:17:31.40\00:17:34.05
that I would like
to tell you about.
00:17:34.06\00:17:36.72
One day, Jesus had
fed over 5,000 men with
00:17:36.73\00:17:39.93
five loaves of
bread and two fish,
00:17:39.94\00:17:42.95
and not only did He, did
they everyone eat their fill,
00:17:42.96\00:17:46.08
but there was actually
12 basketfuls leftover.
00:17:46.09\00:17:49.76
Oh, how the
people marvel that day.
00:17:49.77\00:17:52.25
Right after that
miracle, Jesus asked us
00:17:52.26\00:17:54.25
all to go the
other side of the lake.
00:17:54.26\00:17:56.45
He wanted to
stay behind and pray
00:17:56.46\00:17:58.23
and He would follow later.
00:17:58.24\00:18:00.37
As we made our
way across the lake,
00:18:00.38\00:18:02.74
we hadn't gone very far out
00:18:02.75\00:18:05.29
when all of the
sudden a horrible storm came,
00:18:05.30\00:18:08.13
it was a bad storm.
00:18:08.14\00:18:10.05
The wind blew, the waves
are slamming our little boat,
00:18:10.06\00:18:13.28
and we were going side-to-side.
00:18:13.29\00:18:14.92
We're being
blown all over to lake.
00:18:14.93\00:18:17.36
We're frantically taking
water out by the bucketfuls
00:18:17.37\00:18:20.16
and throwing it over
boat, just to keep from sinking.
00:18:20.17\00:18:24.90
All of a sudden someone yelled
00:18:24.91\00:18:26.97
that he saw
something in the water.
00:18:26.98\00:18:28.52
Someone else
screamed, "It's a ghost."
00:18:28.53\00:18:31.35
Well, we all looked it
wasn't a ghost, it was Jesus.
00:18:31.36\00:18:34.74
Jesus was walking
to us on the water.
00:18:34.75\00:18:37.53
Oh, what a marvel that was?
00:18:37.54\00:18:39.38
I stepped forward
and shouted to Him.
00:18:39.39\00:18:42.61
"Lord, if it is You, have
me come to You on the water."
00:18:42.62\00:18:47.18
"Come," He said and I
stepped out of the boat.
00:18:47.19\00:18:49.96
Oh, and I just stepped
out, I was so frightened,
00:18:49.97\00:18:52.03
but yeah, when I put
my foot on the water,
00:18:52.04\00:18:53.75
I felt as I was on solid ground.
00:18:53.76\00:18:56.21
I walked towards
Jesus. I was walking on water.
00:18:56.22\00:18:59.83
Oh, I was so excited.
00:18:59.84\00:19:02.45
As I walked towards Jesus,
00:19:02.46\00:19:04.20
I took my eyes off
from for only an instance
00:19:04.21\00:19:06.51
to look back at my companions,
00:19:06.52\00:19:08.50
and as I did so I
started to sink in the water.
00:19:08.51\00:19:11.63
Lord, save me, I
cried, I was so frightened.
00:19:11.64\00:19:14.46
Lord, save me, Jesus
was there in an instant.
00:19:14.47\00:19:17.63
He held out His hand to me
and as He held out His hand,
00:19:17.64\00:19:20.11
He said, "Why have
you such a little faith?
00:19:20.12\00:19:22.58
Why did you doubt, Peter?
00:19:22.59\00:19:24.65
You see, I'd taken
my eyes off from Jesus
00:19:24.66\00:19:27.41
and as I did so, I
started to sink in the water.
00:19:27.42\00:19:30.63
So, remember, no matter
what happens in your life,
00:19:30.64\00:19:33.53
don't ever take
your eyes off of Jesus
00:19:33.54\00:19:35.81
because Jesus is
always at your side.
00:19:35.82\00:19:40.44

I'm not afraid for
God is in my heart.
00:22:18.84\00:22:27.84
Thank you today, Sisters,
for that message in song.
00:22:45.81\00:22:48.88
Well, I've a special
treat boys and girls,
00:22:48.89\00:22:50.81
I have my friend Jonathan here
00:22:50.82\00:22:52.68
and he is going to
join me on sharing time.
00:22:52.69\00:22:54.60
And I have asked
him to share with you
00:22:54.61\00:22:56.61
ways that he shares Jesus
can you do that, Jonathan?
00:22:56.62\00:22:59.73
Well, I've a friend
a couple of years ago
00:22:59.74\00:23:01.98
that I played with him a lot.
00:23:01.99\00:23:04.29
Like everyday or so
I would go to his house
00:23:04.30\00:23:06.80
sometimes I would eat
00:23:06.81\00:23:08.41
and I would pray
before each meal.
00:23:08.42\00:23:11.71
And he seemed
confused, he would kick me
00:23:11.72\00:23:14.72
and he would tap
me on the shoulder
00:23:14.73\00:23:16.43
while he was doing it. But, he--
00:23:16.44\00:23:19.01
he didn't pray before his meals.
00:23:19.02\00:23:20.90
No, it seem like he was Hindu,
00:23:20.91\00:23:22.86
I didn't even know at that time.
00:23:22.87\00:23:25.61
And so what, what happened?
00:23:25.62\00:23:28.00
Well, I would talk
to him about Jesus,
00:23:28.01\00:23:30.42
but he never really
talked to me about it.
00:23:30.43\00:23:34.00
He would just go on and
do whatever he does with me.
00:23:34.01\00:23:37.82
But, you know what,
sometimes that's the way
00:23:37.83\00:23:39.27
it isn't it boys and
girls? When we share Jesus,
00:23:39.28\00:23:42.07
we don't always know when we saw
00:23:42.08\00:23:44.74
those little seeds of
kindness and seeds of faith.
00:23:44.75\00:23:49.32
We don't know what's
going to happen with that,
00:23:49.33\00:23:51.43
but it's our job
to share our faith
00:23:51.44\00:23:53.42
and to share Jesus
and Jesus does the rest
00:23:53.43\00:23:55.44
and sent His Holy
Spirit, doesn't He?
00:23:55.45\00:23:56.91
So we can just
pray for us, your friend
00:23:56.92\00:23:59.24
and that Jesus
would touch his heart.
00:23:59.25\00:24:01.91
Well, let's read a couple
of letters right here today
00:24:01.92\00:24:04.61
through the boys and
girls, I love hearing from you,
00:24:04.62\00:24:06.43
boys and girls.
00:24:06.44\00:24:08.19
And I have a picture right here
00:24:08.20\00:24:09.63
can you hold this one up,
Jonathan, so they can see.
00:24:09.64\00:24:12.55
And I have a picture,
00:24:12.56\00:24:13.53
let's see this
letter is from Kristie
00:24:13.54\00:24:16.94
and it says, "Dear
Brenda, I'm eight-years-old,
00:24:16.95\00:24:19.35
so I'm older than
the kids in kindergarten,
00:24:19.36\00:24:21.82
first, and second
grade." I love helping people,
00:24:21.83\00:24:24.36
so I help the little
kids when they need help
00:24:24.37\00:24:26.25
or when a kid of my
age is picking on them.
00:24:26.26\00:24:28.52
And me and my mom
sometimes on Sunday,
00:24:28.53\00:24:31.49
after church we go
to the nursing home
00:24:31.50\00:24:33.21
and sing Christian songs
00:24:33.22\00:24:34.48
and at Christmas
we give them a gift.
00:24:34.49\00:24:36.44
I love helping
people, love, Kristie.
00:24:36.45\00:24:39.10
And you know what Kristie,
00:24:39.11\00:24:40.37
thank you very
much for showing that
00:24:40.38\00:24:42.37
and I'm glad that
you also don't join in
00:24:42.38\00:24:45.71
when people are
picking on someone,
00:24:45.72\00:24:46.97
it's never good
to do that, is it?
00:24:46.98\00:24:48.68
Now let see this
picture right here,
00:24:48.69\00:24:50.10
she's also drew me a
picture of her helping people,
00:24:50.11\00:24:52.32
there's some people
here in a wheelchair,
00:24:52.33\00:24:55.07
see that and then she's
got people singing up here,
00:24:55.08\00:24:57.49
I think she
probably sings to them,
00:24:57.50\00:24:58.86
that's nice, Kristie, thank you.
00:24:58.87\00:25:01.00
You have a letter over
there that you can open. Well.
00:25:01.01\00:25:04.14
And let's see what that while
you're opening one of those,
00:25:04.15\00:25:07.27
I'll read one of these.
00:25:07.28\00:25:09.89
Oops, I got another picture,
00:25:09.90\00:25:11.12
you can hold this
picture up for me, Jonathan.
00:25:11.13\00:25:13.98
And I had, this
one says, "Dear Brenda,
00:25:13.99\00:25:17.21
my name is Payton
and I'm three-years-old
00:25:17.22\00:25:20.37
and my mom is
helping me write this letter.
00:25:20.38\00:25:22.95
I love to tell
people about Jesus,
00:25:22.96\00:25:24.70
and my daddy has
some Bible stories called
00:25:24.71\00:25:27.83
'An hour with your
Bible, and I take them with me
00:25:27.84\00:25:30.08
when we go to the grocery store
00:25:30.09\00:25:31.06
and I give them
to all the people,
00:25:31.07\00:25:32.74
as we pay for our food.
00:25:32.75\00:25:34.31
Then I tell them
to read about Jesus.
00:25:34.32\00:25:36.09
I want everybody to know Jesus.
00:25:36.10\00:25:38.64
Oh, this says, love, Payton.
00:25:38.65\00:25:40.36
I want everyone to know
about Jesus too, didn't you?
00:25:40.37\00:25:42.71
And she said this
is my picture of me
00:25:42.72\00:25:44.62
and my brother Brendon.
00:25:44.63\00:25:46.12
He is 18 months old.
00:25:46.13\00:25:48.81
He is a cute little
thing, isn't he? Oh, yes.
00:25:48.82\00:25:50.81
You have a letter over
there you want to read.
00:25:50.82\00:25:52.58
Okay, this one
says, "Dear Brenda,
00:25:52.59\00:25:55.56
I'm eight-years-old,
my name is Briana.
00:25:55.57\00:25:58.33
I enjoy your show,
please send me a letter back.
00:25:58.34\00:26:01.35
Sincerely, Briana.
00:26:01.36\00:26:03.53
I share Jesus by
telling stories about Jesus."
00:26:03.54\00:26:06.29
Oh, that's
wonderful but you know what,
00:26:06.30\00:26:08.84
I think that's a very
good way to share Jesus
00:26:08.85\00:26:11.51
when we share stories, isn't it?
00:26:11.52\00:26:13.30
And may be we have time for
just one more, quick letter.
00:26:13.31\00:26:16.54
Oh, and I've got such a
pretty picture here too,
00:26:16.55\00:26:19.48
you see that from Emily,
00:26:19.49\00:26:21.34
it says, "Dear Brenda, I
enjoy Kids Time very much.
00:26:21.35\00:26:24.08
I think it is a nice
show, I like special music best.
00:26:24.09\00:26:27.84
And I witness for Jesus
00:26:27.85\00:26:29.00
by bringing my best
friends to church. Love, Emily.
00:26:29.01\00:26:32.64
And this is a lilac
tree in my backyard,"
00:26:32.65\00:26:34.97
isn't that pretty?
Yeah, it is pretty.
00:26:34.98\00:26:37.14
Thank you, Emily, I
really enjoyed that picture
00:26:37.15\00:26:39.56
and I'm glad
that you share Jesus.
00:26:39.57\00:26:42.17
Well, I want to thank Jonathan
00:26:42.18\00:26:43.59
for joining me today
and telling me all about
00:26:43.60\00:26:46.76
how you share Jesus.
00:26:46.77\00:26:48.05
Let's keep
witnessing and sharing Jesus,
00:26:48.06\00:26:50.36
won't you, boys and girls?
00:26:50.37\00:26:51.86
Well, that's all
the time we have today,
00:26:51.87\00:26:53.90
but until next time remember,
00:26:53.91\00:26:55.58
it's Kids Time to share Jesus.
00:26:55.59\00:26:58.15
