It's time to share there
is a world out there looking
00:00:03.66\00:00:06.90
for a friend like
Jesus, it's time to share there
00:00:06.93\00:00:12.17
is a world out
there. Let's tell them that
00:00:12.20\00:00:14.62
He loves us so.
Let's tell them that He
00:00:14.65\00:00:18.28
loves us so. Kids
Time, Kids Time, Kids Time.
00:00:18.31\00:00:25.19
Hi, boys and girls, am I
just sitting here looking
00:00:25.46\00:00:28.09
through all these
bills I have to pay.
00:00:28.12\00:00:30.17
Have you ever seen
your mom or dad working
00:00:31.24\00:00:32.78
over a stack of bills?
Probably you saw a wrinkled
00:00:32.81\00:00:35.80
forehead or heard
a sigh or two, right.
00:00:35.83\00:00:38.49
Because nobody likes
to pay bills do they?
00:00:39.50\00:00:41.37
Everyone knows has to
pay bills, no matter how rich
00:00:42.56\00:00:45.45
you are or how poor you
are. You still have to pay
00:00:45.48\00:00:48.65
for a place to live
and food to eat and cloths
00:00:48.68\00:00:51.89
to wear and all those
other things that make life more
00:00:51.92\00:00:54.92
comfortable.
Sometimes it's hard to come up
00:00:54.95\00:00:57.78
with enough money to pay
all those bills though isn't it.
00:00:57.81\00:01:00.41
But most of the time we
do it without complaining,
00:01:01.03\00:01:03.53
because we want
whatever it is we're paying for.
00:01:04.21\00:01:06.41
However if you felt that
someone was cheating you,
00:01:07.33\00:01:10.40
you know charging you
more then what's fair.
00:01:10.95\00:01:12.96
You probably wouldn't
be too happy about paying
00:01:12.99\00:01:15.44
that bill would you? Our
Bible story today tells about
00:01:15.47\00:01:19.10
a man who lived at the
same time Jesus lived on
00:01:19.13\00:01:21.87
this earth. And he
had job that made him
00:01:21.90\00:01:24.19
really unpopular,
he was a tax collector.
00:01:24.22\00:01:27.77
Now, a tax collector is
not a bad thing to be is it.
00:01:28.46\00:01:31.09
Someone has to collect the
taxes to help the government
00:01:31.60\00:01:34.03
pay for all those services,
but you know in the place
00:01:34.06\00:01:37.40
where Jesus lived, tax
collectors had a very bad
00:01:37.43\00:01:40.32
reputation for cheating
people. And you know what
00:01:40.35\00:01:43.47
else they didn't like the
government very much either.
00:01:43.50\00:01:47.02
So, if you were a tax
collector you might make a
00:01:48.61\00:01:51.18
good living at it. But
you probably didn't have very
00:01:51.21\00:01:53.90
many friends; today's
Bible story will tell you all
00:01:53.93\00:01:57.12
about a tax collector
named Matthew who found
00:01:57.15\00:02:00.79
the very best
friend of all Jesus.
00:02:00.82\00:02:03.76
But first Ranger
Jim is going to show
00:02:04.74\00:02:06.69
us some
beautiful tropical birds.
00:02:06.72\00:02:09.14
Hi, boys and girls,
Ranger Jim here saying
00:02:16.35\00:02:18.42
welcome to Nature Time, we're
glad you can join us today.
00:02:18.45\00:02:21.00
We're back at
Homosassa state park here
00:02:21.57\00:02:23.37
in Florida and our
friend Ken is with us.
00:02:23.40\00:02:25.66
Ranger Ken is going to
be telling us something
00:02:25.69\00:02:27.65
about these birds. Ken
tell us about some of the
00:02:27.68\00:02:29.58
birds that we have
in this huge big cage.
00:02:29.61\00:02:31.57
Well, this is a
big flying aviary.
00:02:31.60\00:02:33.26
We have from
wetlands birds to shorebirds.
00:02:33.29\00:02:36.08
You see back here, we
can see, you know we have
00:02:36.11\00:02:38.90
some of the roseate spoonbills,
00:02:38.93\00:02:40.47
why they call them spoonbill,
look at the big, look,
00:02:41.09\00:02:43.03
it looks like a spoon.
They use that hard palette
00:02:43.06\00:02:47.81
beak just to go in the water
and search for little fish,
00:02:47.84\00:02:50.78
little crawfish or little
frogs whatever they can find
00:02:50.81\00:02:54.54
the march water.
So, they feel with that,
00:02:54.57\00:02:57.92
they feel with that,
and once they get a fish
00:02:57.95\00:03:00.05
they grab them with the
beak and swallow it down.
00:03:00.08\00:03:01.93
Okay, some of them are
lighter colors than the other,
00:03:02.50\00:03:04.31
what about this?
Okay, I am, right now
00:03:04.34\00:03:06.81
they're getting to
the breeding premise,
00:03:06.84\00:03:08.26
that's why that they see
like different colors within
00:03:08.29\00:03:10.77
the males and the females.
So, then the male like in
00:03:10.80\00:03:13.60
many birds
especially nesting time,
00:03:13.63\00:03:15.34
take on a brighter color, yeah.
00:03:15.37\00:03:16.78
And I tell boys and girls
from time to time that God made
00:03:17.44\00:03:19.71
the males usually more
beautiful than the females
00:03:19.74\00:03:22.73
and so we men must be
humble about that, yeah.
00:03:22.76\00:03:25.13
And of course that is
not true he made the male
00:03:25.16\00:03:27.56
brighter because
that will attract color,
00:03:27.59\00:03:29.08
any predator that might
come by would be attracted
00:03:29.11\00:03:31.50
to him, the female
has a duller colors,
00:03:31.53\00:03:33.60
so sitting on the nest and
she is camouflaged by that,
00:03:33.63\00:03:36.36
well other this
spoonbill, what else do we have,
00:03:36.39\00:03:38.96
we have some other
birds that you have here.
00:03:38.99\00:03:40.64
We have back
there on the ground the
00:03:40.67\00:03:42.55
Yellow-crowned Night
Heron, a Yellow-crowned
00:03:42.58\00:03:45.08
Night Heron, he
is only nocturnal.
00:03:45.11\00:03:47.25
So, he hunts at
night, he hunts at night,
00:03:47.28\00:03:49.35
he come out same
thing, he eat frog,
00:03:49.38\00:03:50.94
he eats small snakes, he
will eat whatever they can find,
00:03:50.97\00:03:53.79
they casually. Okay, so
this must be an immature
00:03:53.82\00:03:58.06
bird that we have
here because I have seen
00:03:58.09\00:03:59.64
some of the Night
Heron with the long feathers
00:03:59.67\00:04:01.70
all the way down their
back, they then grow this
00:04:01.73\00:04:03.48
again, when they get them fully,
00:04:03.51\00:04:04.93
they get with their
two long beautiful feathers
00:04:04.96\00:04:07.49
on the back of the
head. Isn't that amazing
00:04:07.52\00:04:09.24
and God made him attractive
to attract the female alright,
00:04:09.27\00:04:11.79
attract the
female, that's right.
00:04:11.82\00:04:12.79
And so then he
built a nest and raise it.
00:04:12.80\00:04:14.13
Oh! That's interesting,
we're learning things today,
00:04:14.16\00:04:15.85
what about the bird
that keeps calling over here
00:04:15.88\00:04:17.76
on the ground.
That's the osprey,
00:04:17.79\00:04:19.53
some people call them
the Sea hawk, You see him,
00:04:19.56\00:04:22.58
see him like in the, when
you go in the by the canals
00:04:22.61\00:04:25.79
you see nesting on
top of the mangrove.
00:04:25.82\00:04:27.93
They come just start
flying, they go in the water,
00:04:31.45\00:04:32.42
grab a fish with
their talons, bring them up
00:04:32.43\00:04:33.61
and bring them home
for food. And so this is,
00:04:33.64\00:04:36.14
when you hear people in
Florida refereeing to a Fish
00:04:36.17\00:04:38.29
hawk this is what
they're speaking of.
00:04:38.32\00:04:40.07
That's what
they're talking about,
00:04:40.10\00:04:41.07
that's what they
are talking about,
00:04:41.08\00:04:42.16
they talk about the
osprey and quite often
00:04:42.19\00:04:43.96
if you're in Florida boys
and girls, you may see a big
00:04:43.99\00:04:46.16
nest on the top of a
power pole and sometime people
00:04:46.19\00:04:48.88
put up nesting sites
for them and they build
00:04:48.91\00:04:51.29
a nest there. And
the old male osprey,
00:04:51.32\00:04:54.15
especially when he is
hunting, he is dangerous
00:04:54.18\00:04:56.85
from many fish that's
within eighteen inches
00:04:56.88\00:04:58.83
of surface, because I've
seen them dive in the water
00:04:58.86\00:05:01.21
and you think it would
kill them. But it doesn't cause
00:05:01.24\00:05:04.40
smash once again they
dive correctly don't they?
00:05:04.43\00:05:07.13
Well, they go hawk first
out, go with their leg first.
00:05:07.74\00:05:10.24
They stick their feet up
and the talons are spread
00:05:10.27\00:05:13.09
this way and when
they strike that pray,
00:05:13.12\00:05:15.42
they close it and
they're as sharp as needles
00:05:15.45\00:05:17.51
and they jerk it from
the water and fly away,
00:05:17.54\00:05:19.96
isn't that incredible?
More incredible is you know
00:05:19.99\00:05:22.73
when they grab the fish,
if you get talon by osprey
00:05:22.76\00:05:26.09
and if you pull the talons
will go deeper in your skin.
00:05:26.12\00:05:30.25
Yes, because when they
grab the fish they just
00:05:30.28\00:05:32.74
go up and talon
will lock the fish
00:05:32.77\00:05:34.63
in place up to lift him.
Just as if it was designed
00:05:34.66\00:05:38.39
that way isn't it?
Isn't it marvelous and we have
00:05:38.42\00:05:40.85
some others small
birds with long legs here,
00:05:40.88\00:05:42.93
what are these? That's
one Black-necked Stilt,
00:05:42.96\00:05:44.84
they are the Black-necked Stilt.
00:05:44.87\00:05:46.63
You find them in the
wetlands you see them like
00:05:46.66\00:05:47.95
running from plants to
plants and walking like
00:05:47.98\00:05:51.91
in the water, looks like
they are walking in the top
00:05:51.94\00:05:53.73
of the water. That's
why they have those long
00:05:53.76\00:05:55.43
legs right and so many
people think this bird,
00:05:55.46\00:05:57.80
boys and girls.
Because it's walking in water,
00:05:57.83\00:05:59.65
the six right inches
deep, his actually walking
00:05:59.68\00:06:02.07
on the water. But it is
not, his legs are quite long
00:06:02.10\00:06:04.98
as you can see and so
it gives the appearance
00:06:05.01\00:06:07.38
of this bird it gliding along
one of the top of the water
00:06:07.41\00:06:09.35
hardly making a
ripple. And so that is a
00:06:09.38\00:06:11.99
misconception that you
get like this so you can learn
00:06:12.02\00:06:13.94
so many things from
that and we have one another
00:06:13.97\00:06:17.02
bird over in the
corner, looks like a pigeon,
00:06:17.05\00:06:18.98
is this a pigeon or
this a dove. That's a white
00:06:19.01\00:06:20.74
crowned pigeon; it's the
only pigeon native to Florida.
00:06:20.77\00:06:24.16
I see, so it's the
white crowned pigeon,
00:06:24.99\00:06:27.10
the only one native to
Florida and all these creatures
00:06:27.13\00:06:29.56
here in Florida are
native to the state of Florida.
00:06:29.59\00:06:32.04
Yeah all these, all the
birds we have in this every
00:06:32.07\00:06:34.79
area did belong to
Florida. What about this small
00:06:34.82\00:06:36.92
bird that we have
here that has the red beak
00:06:36.95\00:06:39.39
and some yellow there.
That's a common moorhen,
00:06:39.42\00:06:41.60
a common moorhen,
yeah wetland bird,
00:06:41.63\00:06:43.71
it is a wetland bird.
Same thing, they love bugs,
00:06:43.74\00:06:46.66
they love all the kind of worms,
00:06:46.69\00:06:48.00
small fish and they have
feet I notice that their feet,
00:06:48.03\00:06:51.65
their tails are quite
elongated and so that gives
00:06:51.68\00:06:54.55
them the ability to walk
on the top of all of that.
00:06:54.58\00:06:56.63
Wonderful boys and
girls, we've learned this
00:06:56.66\00:06:58.33
afternoon about
many of these birds.
00:06:58.36\00:06:59.88
As we have talked
about before our wonderful
00:06:59.91\00:07:02.43
Heavenly Father made
them, he made them right
00:07:02.46\00:07:04.52
the first time. So, we
look forward to having them
00:07:04.55\00:07:07.38
with us in the new earth,
so this is always Ranger Jim

00:10:15.02\00:10:15.99
2 cups fresh or frozen berries
00:10:17.93\00:10:20.37
16 oz canned
apple juice concentrate
00:10:21.51\00:10:24.53
1/3 cup clear gel
1/3 cup cool water
00:10:25.32\00:10:30.12
We're gonna start with
a apple juice concentrate
00:10:31.96\00:10:35.86
and that may sound like
a big word but truly not,
00:10:36.46\00:10:38.27
it's just apple juice
frozen. You need the blender
00:10:38.86\00:10:41.53
for this one, so put
the apple juice concentrate
00:10:41.56\00:10:44.83
in the blender oops,
spilled a little bit.
00:10:45.63\00:10:48.77
You enter the clear gel
and all that clear gel is,
00:10:52.34\00:10:54.40
is to make it
thicken and we're gonna blend
00:10:54.43\00:11:00.65
that up just for a few
seconds, but you don't wanna
00:11:00.68\00:11:02.63
do it too long. Just
about 30 seconds maybe,
00:11:02.66\00:11:05.32
oh that looks good
and then we're gonna take
00:11:08.63\00:11:12.60
our berries and, my
Nana groves fresh raspberries
00:11:13.92\00:11:18.82
from a garden, so I
can use them and they're
00:11:19.48\00:11:21.88
delicious. Put those in
and you don't wanna put.
00:11:21.91\00:11:30.42
You don't wanna blend up
the berries too much because
00:11:30.45\00:11:33.05
they'll get real seedy,
you'll have real seedy jam.
00:11:33.08\00:11:36.74
And I hate it in my teeth,
00:11:37.59\00:11:38.83
so just blend it
out for a few seconds.
00:11:39.79\00:11:41.69
That looks good, looks
done, that's all there is to,
00:11:45.61\00:11:48.48
it's so easy and I'm just,
you can pour in a bowl or a,
00:11:48.51\00:11:52.35
you can pour in a can,
but I'm just gonna use one
00:11:53.35\00:11:56.36
of my mom's bowls. Pretty
bowls to make it look nice,
00:11:56.39\00:12:00.14
look how. Well,
that's all there is to it,
00:12:04.01\00:12:16.50
I don't even need
toast, this looks so good.
00:12:16.53\00:12:18.99
Gonna try some right now; I
told you, you wouldn't wanna
00:12:19.76\00:12:26.60
miss this one.
But remember to keep
00:12:26.63\00:12:29.01
cooking and eat healthy.
00:12:29.04\00:12:31.60
Hello, boys and girls,
I'm counting some of the
00:13:38.06\00:13:40.78
offering that
we've collected from the
00:13:40.81\00:13:42.02
Churches in the area.
You might not know me,
00:13:42.05\00:13:46.37
but my name is Levi
Matthew, I'm one of Jesus'
00:13:46.40\00:13:49.49
Apostles, but I
wasn't always an Apostle.
00:13:49.52\00:13:52.72
Before Jesus
asked me to follow him,
00:13:53.78\00:13:55.97
I was a tax collector
and oh if you know about
00:13:56.55\00:13:59.86
the tax collectors
in Judea. We were hated,
00:13:59.89\00:14:02.71
nobody wanted the tax
collectors to come around
00:14:03.43\00:14:05.81
and ask them for money.
And it was like every few
00:14:05.84\00:14:10.57
months or so we'd be around,
00:14:10.60\00:14:12.18
asking for more money
and they got to be where
00:14:12.21\00:14:15.36
sometimes we would ask for
a little more than we should.
00:14:15.39\00:14:18.22
And so we had fewer
and fewer friends where
00:14:19.21\00:14:21.54
my only friends were
other tax collectors.
00:14:21.57\00:14:24.04
So, I didn't have many
friends, I was like an outcast
00:14:25.60\00:14:28.48
in my own people,
Jews didn't like me,
00:14:28.51\00:14:31.92
the Romans didn't like
me. Nobody like the tax
00:14:32.54\00:14:35.34
collectors, I was
so lonely and burdened,
00:14:35.37\00:14:38.85
then I heard about this
Jesus. That he was going
00:14:38.88\00:14:42.60
around and people
were starting to follow him
00:14:42.63\00:14:45.81
and I wanted to find
out about it. I heard he was
00:14:45.84\00:14:48.32
even healing people, so
I went and I watched him
00:14:48.35\00:14:51.77
and sure enough he
healed some of my friends.
00:14:51.80\00:14:54.44
I couldn't believe
what I was hearing,
00:14:55.91\00:14:57.59
so I went to a mountain
side one day where he was
00:14:58.19\00:15:01.52
giving a sermon. And I
listened to him talk about
00:15:01.55\00:15:04.55
forgiveness and then I
heard about sin is in our heart.
00:15:04.58\00:15:07.73
And I realized that
sin was in my heart and how
00:15:09.56\00:15:12.17
I had became
greedy and prideful;
00:15:12.20\00:15:14.43
I didn't wanna
be that way anymore.
00:15:15.52\00:15:17.24
I wanted to have God
in my life and I decided
00:15:17.77\00:15:20.97
that I would follow
Jesus at that moment.
00:15:21.00\00:15:24.39
And if there was some
way that I could be with him,
00:15:25.44\00:15:27.86
I wouldn't hesitate.
So, I waited and one day
00:15:27.89\00:15:31.77
I was sitting at my tax
table, counting out the taxes.
00:15:31.80\00:15:34.97
When I could see down the road,
00:15:35.77\00:15:36.83
a group of the
Apostles coming with Jesus
00:15:36.86\00:15:39.13
leading them,
would you believe it,
00:15:39.16\00:15:42.17
they were heading right for me.
00:15:42.20\00:15:43.67
And Jesus walked
right up to my table,
00:15:44.72\00:15:46.68
he looked into my
eyes. He was so loving and
00:15:46.71\00:15:50.14
he said follow me and
there without hesitation,
00:15:50.17\00:15:54.44
I got right up from my
table and I followed him.
00:15:55.08\00:15:57.44
And from that day I
have never looked back.
00:15:57.47\00:15:59.72
It was such a blessing to
be in the presence of Jesus.
00:16:01.39\00:16:04.19
All day long, day after
day listening to his stories,
00:16:05.06\00:16:08.42
watching him heal, just
talking to him with those
00:16:08.45\00:16:11.28
friendly loving eyes.
It was like heaven to be
00:16:12.12\00:16:15.46
in his presence and he
taught us so many things,
00:16:15.49\00:16:19.39
I just appreciated him so much.
00:16:20.07\00:16:22.01
The very first thing
that I did is I held a party,
00:16:22.96\00:16:26.30
a banquet in his honor. And
invited all my tax collector
00:16:26.33\00:16:30.05
friends, all the
people that were outcast
00:16:30.08\00:16:32.60
and we had a wild
party to say the least.
00:16:33.15\00:16:36.36
We had things that
Jesus wouldn't eat and drink,
00:16:36.93\00:16:39.26
but he was there and he
was respectful and gracious.
00:16:39.29\00:16:42.66
He was so fun to
be with and my friends
00:16:43.28\00:16:48.29
they never forgot that banquet,
00:16:48.32\00:16:50.81
they never forgot that
way that Jesus was with them.
00:16:50.84\00:16:54.27
How respectful he was of them.
00:16:54.30\00:16:56.66
So, for the next three
and half years I walked
00:16:58.34\00:17:01.22
with Jesus with the Apostles,
00:17:01.25\00:17:02.89
we were even given
powers to heal and to bless
00:17:03.47\00:17:06.20
and do miracles. It
was so amazing to see God's
00:17:06.23\00:17:10.69
Spirit work in that special way.
00:17:10.72\00:17:12.75
But after three and half
years you know what happened.
00:17:13.43\00:17:16.38
You've heard the
stories, Jesus was crucified
00:17:16.95\00:17:19.86
and we were so
disappointed, we didn't know
00:17:19.89\00:17:24.44
what to think of
it. But we realized what
00:17:24.47\00:17:27.38
forgiveness was, that
he went through all that
00:17:27.41\00:17:30.16
he went through so
innocent and so pure
00:17:30.19\00:17:32.17
that he died for
our sins on the cross.
00:17:32.20\00:17:35.44
It was such an important
time and it was so much
00:17:36.39\00:17:39.57
of a blessing, it was
three days later he rose from
00:17:39.60\00:17:42.24
the dead. He was
resurrected and then all of
00:17:42.27\00:17:46.10
the stories that he had
talked to us about Jonah
00:17:46.13\00:17:49.22
three days in the
whale. Building the temple
00:17:49.25\00:17:52.49
in three days and it
all made sense again.
00:17:52.52\00:17:54.99
We were so appreciative
and then for the next
00:17:55.46\00:17:58.75
forty days he
explained those stories to us
00:17:58.78\00:18:01.54
and we were so
enthralled with it.
00:18:02.19\00:18:04.01
So at forty days was
the time that he was going
00:18:04.63\00:18:09.27
to be ascended to
Heaven. And that's just
00:18:09.30\00:18:13.21
what happened, after
those forty days he went up
00:18:13.24\00:18:16.94
on the hill and he
rose up to Heaven and the
00:18:16.97\00:18:19.69
last thing he told us
was to go and teach others
00:18:19.72\00:18:22.25
what he had taught us.
To baptize others and I hope
00:18:22.28\00:18:26.35
children that you
will be baptized someday,
00:18:26.38\00:18:29.16
I hope that you will
follow Jesus as I have
00:18:29.19\00:18:32.94
and you will find the
blessings that I have.
00:18:32.97\00:18:36.11
I better go back to my work,
00:18:37.18\00:18:38.53
it was nice
talking to you, bye, bye.
00:18:38.56\00:18:40.65
[Foreign Language]
Sweet Jesus, Sweet Jesus
00:19:57.91\00:20:01.04
What a wonder you are
00:20:01.72\00:20:04.67
You are brighter
than the morning star,
00:20:05.20\00:20:11.08
You are fairer, much fairer
00:20:11.67\00:20:14.99
Than the lily that
grows by the wayside
00:20:15.56\00:20:19.16
Precious, more
precious than gold.
00:20:19.19\00:20:24.78
I live for Jesus day after day
00:20:24.81\00:20:31.29
I live for Jesus
may come what may
00:20:32.16\00:20:38.45
The holy Spirit I will obey
00:20:38.76\00:20:44.41
I live for Jesus day
after day. [Foreign Language]
00:20:45.73\00:20:51.87
Thank you to Alvarado
children's choir for that
00:21:33.58\00:21:35.32

00:21:37.28\00:21:40.18
mail out of our
mailbox boys and girls.
00:21:40.21\00:21:41.94
And I'm going to read
some of the letters to you,
00:21:41.97\00:21:43.98
but before I do I
want you to meet a guest
00:21:44.01\00:21:46.12
that's here at
Kid's Time today alright.
00:21:46.15\00:21:47.72
I'd like you to meet
my friend Hannah, Hannah,
00:21:48.81\00:21:50.46
thank you so much
for coming to Kid's Time.
00:21:50.49\00:21:52.69
And I see that you've
brought some, some curious,
00:21:53.21\00:21:57.22
something curious
with you. What do you have
00:21:57.25\00:21:59.07
in your lap? Well,
today I brought some puppets,
00:21:59.10\00:22:03.43
some puppets now you
have a puppet ministry right?
00:22:04.39\00:22:06.61
Yes. And can you tell me a
little bit about your puppets
00:22:06.64\00:22:10.40
now did you buy this puppets or.
00:22:10.43\00:22:11.90
No, we handmade
these puppets at our house,
00:22:12.77\00:22:15.16
you handmade them,
yes. And so that have
00:22:15.19\00:22:18.57
took had to be pretty
hard work isn't it? Yes.
00:22:18.60\00:22:20.86
What are they made out of? Well,
00:22:20.89\00:22:22.84
it just made out
of cloth and foam,
00:22:22.87\00:22:26.50
and foam and that's pretty good.
00:22:26.71\00:22:29.10
Now, what do you do for your,
00:22:29.13\00:22:31.22
what is the puppet
ministry, how do you use the
00:22:31.25\00:22:34.09
puppets for Jesus?
Well, at our Church we have
00:22:34.12\00:22:37.94
a thing called children's
Church and we put on the
00:22:37.97\00:22:40.35
puppet shows for the
children and they really
00:22:40.38\00:22:43.98
enjoy them. We do
different Bible stories
00:22:44.01\00:22:46.16
and health things and
they really enjoy it out.
00:22:46.19\00:22:50.08
Now, when you say health things,
00:22:50.11\00:22:51.24
what kind of health
can you do with the puppet?
00:22:51.27\00:22:54.06
Well, we do, we talk
about how you need to not
00:22:54.09\00:22:58.89
eating between meals
and eating good foods
00:22:58.92\00:23:01.88
rather than junk food
'cause it's a lot of extra work
00:23:01.91\00:23:03.99
for your stomach. And I
see something over there
00:23:04.02\00:23:06.50
you have actually a
stomach puppet, right yes.
00:23:06.53\00:23:09.71
We made this, oh!
Look at that, isn't that,
00:23:10.40\00:23:12.90
that looks like a lot
of hard work too? Yes,
00:23:12.93\00:23:15.36
and so the food goes in
and it shows the kids for,
00:23:15.39\00:23:18.26
yes what goes in the
Mr. Stomach over there, yep.
00:23:18.29\00:23:20.76
That's a wonderful now
what kind of Bible stories
00:23:20.79\00:23:22.93
have you told. Well,
we tell once about Daniel
00:23:22.96\00:23:27.09
and his three friends
and the woman at the well
00:23:27.12\00:23:29.86
and about Blind
Bartimaeus and about God's gifts
00:23:29.89\00:23:36.47
for us and how we
should use our gifts to serve
00:23:36.50\00:23:41.68
the Lord. That's
absolutely right,
00:23:41.71\00:23:43.84
well that's a wonderful ministry
00:23:43.87\00:23:45.21
isn't that boys and
girls. Well, would you like
00:23:45.24\00:23:47.73
to hear some of
our letters? Yeah,

my sons are age are six
and four and they really
00:24:47.63\00:24:50.79
enjoy it and I think
their favorite parts are
00:24:50.82\00:24:52.74
Story Time and Cooking Time.
00:24:52.77\00:24:54.45
The cooking has
sparked an interest in my
00:24:55.04\00:24:56.57
