It's time to share
00:00:03.10\00:00:04.82
there's a world out there,
00:00:04.87\00:00:06.95
looking for a friend
00:00:07.00\00:00:08.18
like Jesus!
00:00:08.23\00:00:09.98
I't time to share
00:00:10.03\00:00:11.48
there's a world out there,
00:00:11.53\00:00:13.32
let's tell them that
00:00:13.37\00:00:14.68
He loves us so,
00:00:14.73\00:00:16.72
let's tell them that
00:00:16.77\00:00:18.02
He loves us so!

00:00:23.73\00:00:24.70
Hi boys and girls!
00:00:24.71\00:00:25.68
Do you see what I
have in my hand today?
00:00:25.69\00:00:27.82
That's right! It's a stick.
00:00:27.87\00:00:29.38
Just a stick like you could find
00:00:29.43\00:00:30.75
in the woods or you know,
as the branch off of a tree.
00:00:30.80\00:00:34.68
Actually my brother in law, Joe,
cut this one down for me so that
I can show it to you.
00:00:34.73\00:00:39.28
But even though there's nothing
special about it, it can be used
00:00:39.33\00:00:44.12
for many things. This branch
could be cut up and thrown into
a fireplace. There it will burn
00:00:44.17\00:00:49.55
and it would give lots of sparks
and I bet it will spread a lot
of warmth to all those around
00:00:49.60\00:00:53.88
it, wouldn't it? Or this stick
could be carved into a fishing
rod, and hmm, that would be a
00:00:53.93\00:00:59.45
nice fishing pole, huh? Or you
might find another one like it
and with just a little carpentry
00:00:59.50\00:01:04.92
work you can make a pair of
stilts! Well, sometimes sticks
something like this, are
00:01:04.97\00:01:11.75
made into hockey sticks or
baseball bats. You might even
use this stick to help you
00:01:11.80\00:01:16.55
reach something on a very high
shelf. You know way... when
you're short like me, oof!
00:01:16.60\00:01:22.32
Well probably with a little
imagination, you can think of
many more uses for a
00:01:22.37\00:01:27.58
stick like this. Today in our
Bible story you're going to hear
about an unusual stick.
00:01:27.63\00:01:33.85
It was just a simple
ordinary stick like this one.
00:01:33.90\00:01:37.32
And it was used for a very
common purpose and it was a
00:01:37.37\00:01:43.42
walking stick. The man who owned
it used it to lean on when he
grew tired of walking. And when
00:01:43.47\00:01:49.55
he had to climb steep hills and
mountains or when the ground was
00:01:49.60\00:01:53.68
uneven and bumpy. This man loved
God very much. And God and that
walking stick did something so
00:01:53.73\00:02:01.85
wonderful that people are still
talking about it thousands of
years after it took place!
00:02:01.90\00:02:06.72
Isn't that amazing? This stick
actually reminds me of boys and
girls and grownups too.
