00:03 Its time to share there's a world out there
00:06 looking for a friend like Jesus
00:10 Its time to share there's a world out there
00:13 let's tell them that he loves us so.
00:16 Let's tell them that he loves us so.
00:20 Kids Time. Kids Time. Kids Time.
00:25 Como estas, Como estas, no, what is that?
00:30 Como estas, Como estas.
00:31 Oh, hi boys and girls I am having the hardest time today.
00:35 I brought a Spanish book with me
00:37 and I am hoping to learn a few phrases
00:38 to use when I travel. But it's difficult
00:41 for me to learn all this. I wish I had taken
00:45 a foreign language when I was younger.
00:46 But I didn't. A good friend of mine
00:48 though she told me that it's really hard
00:50 to learn a new language.
00:51 She said took two years of French
00:53 when she was in college and she was so
00:55 excited in the beginning. She figured
00:57 hey you know in a couple of years
00:58 I'll speak French really really well.
01:00 But was she ever in for a surprise.
01:03 She practiced and she practiced
01:05 and she studied hard and you know
01:07 what she even got A's on her French test.
01:08 But at the end of the first year she really
01:11 couldn't speak French very well at all.
01:13 And was she ever disappointed.
01:15 You know there is an amazing story in the Bible.
01:18 It's about a day long ago when people
01:20 suddenly started speaking new languages.
01:22 You know they started speaking
01:24 them instantaneously. Now, they didn't have
01:27 to go to language school and spend lots
01:28 of money on expensive text books.
01:30 One minute they spoke one language
01:32 and the next minute they spoke a different one.
01:35 Can you imagine that? Well, God did something
01:39 really wonderful because God created language
01:43 in the very beginning. And if he created
01:45 language then he controls language as well right.
01:48 So, I know he'll give me the ability to learn
01:51 Spanish if he really wants me to.
01:53 And also I have to do my part and really study
01:56 and learn. Like everything is in God's good timing.
02:00 Speaking of timing its time to see
02:02 what Ranger Jim is up to.
02:03 I am sure glad he speak a language I can understand.
02:13 Hi boys and girls. Ranger Jim saying welcome to
02:15 Nature Time. We're in Knoxville,
02:17 Tennessee at Ijams Nature Center.
02:18 There are many beautiful flowers and trees
02:21 and shrubs of all kind. Beautiful birds
02:23 singing in the background. My friend Ed is a specialist
02:26 in this and he is going to tell us about a very
02:28 special tree today. Ed what is this
02:30 we're talking about. Okay this is black gum,
02:32 it's known scientifically as Nyssa sylvatica.
02:36 It's been a very important tree
02:39 to many of the settlers here.
02:40 This tree produces flowers on it
02:44 and it's very attractive to insects
02:46 and it's also used for beehives.
02:49 They will take a section of the black gum
02:52 we call it bee gum. A bee gum that's where
02:54 the name came from. A bee gum,
02:56 now I never knew that. A bee gum.
02:58 Okay I've got you. Yeah, if they found the beehive
03:01 in this they could cut a section out
03:03 and they would start hives around their home site.
03:06 So they would find the section of the tree
03:08 where the bees were going in a hole,
03:09 cut off a pear and cut it down here
03:12 then they have a beehive.
03:14 Right. Alright. Put a little roof on it.
03:15 I have to use pine boards and hammers
03:17 and nails and stuff. And they just
03:19 use the bee gum. Does it have a flower?
03:23 It has white flowers it's not blooming
03:27 at this time. It has the shinny leaf.
03:32 Glossy almost. Glossy. Uh-huh.
03:34 On the bark it's very rough. Yes, rough bark there.
03:40 Lot of them, they could use it for toothbrush,
03:44 they would chew on the end of it.
03:46 Oh I see. Until it got all mashed up.
03:50 It cleans out doesn't it. You can brush your teeth with it.
03:52 Oh the first dental aah. Right. The first dentist.
03:54 We don't think about these things
03:56 but they had to use what they had available.
03:57 Alright now this is a relatively small tree here,
04:00 is this a large tree, does it grow to a large.
04:02 Yeah these trees will get about 20-25 inches
04:06 in around. Oh man, that would be a big tree.
04:09 Wouldn't it? Often maybe 50-60 feet tall.
04:12 Yes. Okay. Very good now these are native you say here
04:15 to east Tennessee there. Yes. Alright,
04:17 now I have heard people talk about sweet gum
04:22 honey, is this a sweet gum tree.
04:25 It's a close relative to the sweet gum
04:27 we have a sweet gum right over there
04:29 it has more of a five leaves on it.
04:33 I see. So it's a gum but it's not the same.
04:36 It has beautiful folded joint and I appreciation that,
04:38 so that's very interesting to learn about that.
04:40 I am gonna remember that, boys and girls
04:42 you remember when mother and daddy tells you to
04:44 wash and brush your teeth and take care
04:46 of them good you remember that early settlers
04:48 took this and it does, doesn't it,
04:51 if I use it like that, it makes a nice tooth brush
04:54 and you can brush your teeth with it and go
04:56 very good like that.
04:57 So many many trees here in this center,
05:00 we have enjoyed learning some more about them.
05:02 We want to remind you again. Ranger Jim saying don't forget
05:06 to tell Jesus that you love him because he
05:09 really does love you.
05:18 God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world,
05:22 but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:17.
05:36 For God so loved the world
05:41 that He gave His only begotten Son,
05:45 that whomsoever believe in Him
05:52 should not perish, they shall have everlasting life.
06:00 God sent not his son into the world
06:14 to condemn the world, but that the world
06:21 that the world, through him might be saved
06:27 [John 3:16], [John 17]. Hallelujah.
06:43 Hi, today I wanted to share with you a recipe
06:45 that my family loves and has been making
06:48 for many years. My great grandma Mitchell
06:51 used to make it for us. And you know the Mitchell
06:54 family loves all kinds of recipes anything
06:57 with cabbage basically. Cabbage rolls and
06:59 Today we're making one called cabbage
07:02 and noodles. Let me read the recipe for you.
07:05 1 large head of cabbage- shredded
07:08 1 lb. of fettuccine noodles, broken into thirds
07:12 salt to taste and margarine to taste.
07:15 Now I just want to start with the cabbage.
07:18 I already, I cut the cabbage head in half.
07:21 And I just want to show you kind of
07:23 how you cut a cabbage.
07:24 you're not comfortable using a knife
07:26 get an adult to help you.
07:29 You just kind of cut down the cabbage cut them off
07:33 in little shreds and you just keep moving around
07:35 the cabbage until you get through
07:39 with the whole head of cabbage.
07:41 Now I already have some shredded for,
07:44 for you just to save a little time
07:46 and we have our cabbage and you also have your water
07:49 and you just get a little, I have a medium skillet
07:52 over here already heating and we're just gonna put
07:54 your water and your already shredded head
07:57 of cabbage into here.
08:03 Now, the cabbage is going to,
08:05 we're gonna let it cook and it's going to take
08:08 a little while but you want to make sure
08:12 that you keep water in there
08:13 and if starts to get dry, your cabbage will burn.
08:16 So you wanna make sure that you keep enough water
08:18 in that, but still not too much water or the cabbage
08:20 will get soggy. Now while that's cooking;
08:23 well, I have some already cooked for you
08:26 just to save a little time 'cause the cabbage
08:27 is gonna take a little while and I also have
08:30 some already boiled noodles.
08:32 That are fettuccine noodles and I wanted
08:33 them to stay hot that's why there is foil over them.
08:36 Now the cabbage, if you have a big enough pan
08:42 you're going to go ahead and put
08:43 your noodles into your pan. Because my pan is not
08:45 big enough I'm just going to go ahead and dump
08:47 or put the cabbage into the bowl
08:49 with the noodles, just mix it up.
08:55 Now this recipe you know you might think of
08:57 cabbage and think, you know you might not like
09:01 cabbage but you might just to want to try it
09:03 just to see what do you think. And put a little bit of
09:06 margarine, you don't need all the margarine
09:07 that's in here but just a little bit, just to taste.
09:09 'Cause it tastes good to mix it a little bit,
09:11 it gives it a good flavor and you just put a little bit
09:14 of salt, just a pinch of the salt
09:16 just enough to make it have a little bit of flavor.
09:23 Stir that. Cabbage, cabbage noodles is easy to make
09:30 and tastes good too.
09:36 Well, it's about mixed. You know I love recipes
09:41 this is one of those recipes, only two
09:43 ingredients to put in here and that's all.
09:45 It's that easy. Well, just remember
09:48 until next time to keep cooking and eat healthy.
10:09 You know I really think you need to get going.
10:10 Yeah know how that is, the worst job
10:11 that is the longer it seems to take and everything is just,
10:14 it doesn't fall in the place the way you wish it would.
10:16 Hey welcome to Caleb Perry, I'm Caleb.
10:19 Hi Caleb. Ehud, how are you? I haven't seen you
10:23 forever man. Good to see you. Good to see you too.
10:26 So what's being going on? Oh not much,
10:28 what's being going on with you?
10:29 Well I have been here in the market for the last year.
10:32 Yeah what are you selling? Well I've got falafels,
10:36 got fruit, got hummus, Baba Ganoush, you hungry,
10:39 I can whip you something upto eat.
10:40 What would you like? Well, let me think about
10:42 that for a second. Why don't you tell me
10:44 where you've been? Man, you know I have been like
10:47 I said I have been working here in the market
10:48 for the last year I can't imagine
10:50 been inside in all day long. I love being out here
10:52 where the action is. You know you could
10:54 see the carpenter working, watch the business folks
10:56 carrying back and forth. Let me tell me you
10:58 good food business our moms and kids
11:00 have been at market all day along.
11:01 They're not going to get home in time for lunch
11:03 I got good food ready to go quick.
11:04 Construction workers are another boom
11:07 to my business. Really.
11:08 Absolutely, they can get down here,
11:10 grab a bite, good nourishing food,
11:12 keep them strong and hearty and
11:13 they're back on the job in no time.
11:15 In fact since I last saw you we've been doing
11:18 a bang of business with construction workers.
11:20 Really. Really? Where? You know, while I was back in the
11:23 plains of Shinar and you know back,
11:26 that was back before the language got all confused,
11:28 we were doing this big job the people
11:31 there decided that they were gonna build this
11:33 huge tower because they were afraid
11:36 that if it started raining again and
11:37 God sent another flood everybody was going to get
11:39 drowned down so they decided that if they built
11:41 this tower then with the tip top went up above the clouds
11:44 they'd be fine, everybody had see them
11:46 and it look like good folk.
11:47 Of course some of us try to say hey wait,
11:49 wait, wait a minute. Remember God put that rainbow
11:51 up in the sky. We don't have to worry about another
11:54 flood but I wouldn't have anything to do with it.
11:56 So it was decided that they go ahead
11:59 and build this tower. And down by the
12:01 tower they put these kilns, so they could bake
12:04 the bricks right on the spot,
12:05 wouldn't have to import anything.
12:07 Had mud that they made the bricks
12:08 with and then the slimy tar that they used
12:10 for mortar. The scaffolding was set up next
12:13 to the tower and course by course
12:15 you can watch the brick going up.
12:17 They were guys that were hauling the brick
12:18 from the kilns to the tower,
12:20 guys holding the brick up to the scaffolding.
12:23 Absolutely, of course I knew a good opportunity
12:26 when I saw one. So I loaded up my
12:28 little wagon, pitched my donkey to it,
12:30 put my little clay oven on the back
12:32 of the wagon and went on down.
12:34 There was some food. Got there fed my donkey
12:36 some oats, got my hummus, Baba Ganoush,
12:38 the falafels, some fruit out.
12:40 Pretty soon the lunch whistle blows,
12:42 I am doing a bang up business.
12:44 Wow! Just like that. It was great
12:46 day in and day out we kept the guys
12:48 fed and then one day everything came to
12:51 a complete halt. What happened?
12:53 Nobody could understand a word that the other fellow
12:56 was saying anymore. Here is what happened
12:58 the guys down at the kiln were making some more brick
13:01 one day and they needed mud to pour into the forms
13:03 and so the guys calls for more mud
13:06 but his assistant doesn't hear mud,
13:07 he hears sticks so he brings more sticks for the fire.
13:10 And can't get the more bricks made that way,
13:13 we bring more fire instead of more mud.
13:14 I wouldn't think. Well, the guys up
13:15 on the scaffolding are asking for
13:17 some extra trowels 'cause they dropped theirs
13:19 down below, they can't get the mortar in
13:21 between the brick right. And instead of bringing up
13:24 more trowels the guys are bringing up more block.
13:26 Nobody could understand a word that was being said.
13:29 So when you can't understand the orders
13:30 being given you can't get any work done.
13:33 Everybody started going back home,
13:35 we were trying to talk to complete strangers see
13:37 if he could understand anything that's
13:38 being said right. And as soon as you found
13:40 somebody that understood what was being said
13:42 well I was jumping and down we found long lost friends.
13:45 Well, people got together in groups,
13:48 so they could understand each other.
13:49 They packed up all of their belongings
13:51 and scattered to the four winds.
13:53 Work men of course took their tools
13:55 with them right but they left the kilns
13:57 and the scaffolding there centered around this tower
14:00 that goes up to nowhere. So what did you
14:03 call the tower? Well, with all of this
14:06 nonsense being spoken, it sounded like nonsense anyway,
14:09 it sound like complete confusion.
14:10 We call the place Babel. Huh! Good name for it huh.
14:13 Yeah, that's a great name. Absolutely. So, anyway
14:16 we headed on over this way we came over
14:19 and we've been enjoying life here ever since.
14:22 Well, sounds like you had quite the time.
14:26 Yeah, in fact you know as I thought about that story
14:29 it reminded me that when we try to depend
14:32 on our own strength. Yeah. And depend on ourselves,
14:35 it leads to complete and utter confusion.
14:37 That's absolutely right. If we trust on God
14:39 everything goes smooth. Trust God,
14:43 life is good. Man, you're looking like your hungry
14:47 what can I get you. Well, I'll tell you
14:49 what I have some falafels and some Baba Ganoush.
14:52 All right, let me get that for you, we have it ready
14:54 for you, two shakes. All right. Thanks Perry.
17:42 Hi boys and girls, its time for the book
17:45 of the day. I'm so excited to bring you
17:48 this book today. It is called fire on the mountain
17:51 and it's by Norma R. Youngberg.
17:54 It will take you all the way to Borneo.
17:57 In the wild green hills in a village
18:00 called Singing Water, a boy named Saksee
18:03 loved to swim in the sparkling jungle pools
18:08 but now he must quickly return to the village
18:11 of broken light and quickly the God teacher
18:14 Rajin has come and his poison teaching
18:17 will just spread and all will be spoiled
18:21 for Kooning the wicked witch doctor.
18:23 Oh Saksee climbed to the old ways of his tribe,
18:26 drums, drinking and dancing all these things
18:29 pleased him. He tried to push out
18:32 his mind all thoughts of Rajin's God
18:34 but Saksee could not quite the voice
18:37 speaking to his heart. Many of the people even his own
18:41 family were turning to this God
18:43 who brings love, happiness and healing.
18:45 Afraid and in pain Saksee calls out to the one
18:49 his heart longs to know. His tiny mustard
18:52 seed of faith begins to grow. When the sly, cunning
18:55 evil witch doctor Kooning plots to destroy
18:58 the Chief's son with double magic, only Saksee
19:02 knows the terrifying secret. Can the God of heaven
19:05 protect them with his power and will the angels
19:09 promise for a little deaf girl actually come to pass.
19:14 I am not gonna tell you anymore boys and girls.
19:15 You're gonna have to purchase this book
19:17 and read this story, you're gonna love it.
19:20 Well, you know what else I am excited about today,
19:23 I am excited to have David with me today
19:25 and David thank you for being here on Kid's Time.
19:28 You're welcome. I am so glad you can come now,
19:30 you came all the way from where?
19:31 Vermont. And how far drive was that?
19:34 I think it was 20 hours. 20 Hours. That's a long time
19:38 to be in the car. Isn't it? Yes.
19:40 Did you have a fun time though.
19:41 Yes. Alright tell me now you love Jesus
19:44 very much you been sharing with me.
19:46 Let me ask you what do you do to share Jesus with others.
19:49 Well I help other people. And now how do you do that.
19:55 By helping them, their needs whatever they need.
19:58 They ever need. Now have you had any
20:01 experiences that you would like to share with
20:03 the boys and girls was there anything
20:04 special that's happened.
20:05 Yes, there is this one man in Washington DC
20:08 who was at this bus stop that we stopped at
20:11 and he was homeless and he looked pretty dirty
20:14 and so I asked my dad if we can give him money
20:17 and dad said sure and so I went over and
20:20 I gave him some money and he was very thankful
20:22 and I said Jesus loves you and he said thank you.
20:24 Oh! That was good. Now you also tell me something
20:27 about you went hiking. You had a really wonderful
20:29 experience hiking one day, what happened there?
20:31 Well, after church we had gone on a hike
20:33 so that we could do something that day
20:34 and there was a big rain storm coming.
20:36 And we had been chased up by the rains,
20:38 so we had to run really fast down the mountain
20:40 and on our way home we saw these big big branches
20:44 on the road and on this older couples yard
20:48 and on their fence and on the drive way.
20:49 Now what do you mean what was on their fence
20:52 in drive way. Big branches Big branches,
20:55 because the storm had thrown it all there.
20:56 Like how big were those branches.
20:58 About that big. About that big. They were pretty big
21:01 branches I don't think I could move a branch
21:02 like that. Were these really strong people
21:05 and did they look like when you saw them
21:06 in the yard. No. They looked like their back
21:11 was going to break if they tried moving it.
21:13 Oh no. So what happened? And so.
21:16 Probably a lot of people stopped
21:17 to help them though right. No, everybody
21:19 just drove looked at them and just drove by.
21:21 Oh no, so what happened? So I asked them
21:25 if we could help them and they said sure.
21:27 They had big trees about that big
21:29 that were 120 years old and so the branches
21:33 came off very easily and we asked we could help them
21:35 we could help them move it to a different place
21:37 and they said sure and we helped to move it over
21:40 to the side of the road and they were very thankful.
21:42 They were I bet they were, were they surprised
21:43 that you would stop and help when nobody else did.
21:45 Yes there were. Now do you think
21:47 that they saw Jesus in your heart.
21:48 Yes. And what did they say to you.
21:51 They called us angels and they said that they were thankful.
21:54 They were thankful. Well, you know what
21:56 that does show Jesus in your heart
21:58 when you stop. You should think that all
21:59 of those are the people went by
22:00 but one family stopped and why do you think
22:03 they stopped. Because they had Jesus in their heart.
22:06 Well, I have some exciting letters
22:09 to share with you today from boys and girls
22:11 that have Jesus in their heart and I would like to read
22:13 one to you. This one is from Randy in Yucaipa,
22:16 California and lets see what Randy has to say.
22:21 This says dear Miss Brenda, my name is Randy
22:24 and I am seven years old and I love Jesus,
22:27 I have a sister Jessica, 11 and she is studying
22:30 with Pastor Elijah to be baptized
22:32 with our mother Donna. I saw your Kid's Time
22:35 at our friend's house and I liked it a lot,
22:37 I would like to join Kids Club
22:39 and take the Bible study, so I can be baptized.
22:41 Oh! I am so glad Randy. It says we share Jesus
22:45 with our grandma who is really sick
22:46 with broken back and cannot walk.
22:48 So our mom helps her eat and take care of herself
22:51 and she needs to stop smoking. Yes she does.
22:54 Says to get well. Please pray for my grandma
22:56 and our mother and daddy to have more work.
22:59 I hope you will send me the Bible lessons.
23:02 And I want to tell you thank you for your happy programs
23:05 about Jesus and all the animals,
23:07 your friend forever, Randy.
23:08 Wasn't that a great letter. It sure was and I want to
23:12 be baptized someday as well. You do.
23:14 Oh! I am so glad, that makes Jesus so happy doesn't it.
23:17 Well, lets see I have another letter here
23:21 oh and this one has a picture in it.
23:22 Can you hold this up for me, David?
23:24 And this was coming from St Lucia.

25:17 I love the picture it's so pretty and you know what
25:21 you are right keep telling your friends
25:22 because Jesus is coming back
25:24 soon and lets read an email. This one is from the Natalia.
25:28 It says dear Miss Brenda, I am the Natalia
25:30 9 years old and I live in East Hartford, Connecticut.
25:33 I share Jesus by helping to do meals on wheels
25:36 with my church and sometimes we deliver
25:38 the meals but mostly I work in the kitchen.
25:40 I usually put the labels on the bags.
25:43 I have a dog, his name is Buddy and I like
25:45 the animals that Ranger Jim tells us about,
25:48 but mostly I love the singing, it was nice seeing
25:50 you and your grandson at the Southern New England
25:53 Camp meeting. I would like to join Kids Club
25:55 and get an activity book your friend Natalia.
25:58 Well I am glad I got a chance to visit with you
26:00 at camp meeting and you saw my grandson Michael.
26:03 And you know what I want you to keep working
26:06 too because it doesn't matter even though you didn't
26:08 get to visit the people when you're working on meals
26:10 on wheels, you were still working just as hard for Jesus
26:14 behind the scenes putting those labels on those bags.
26:16 Well, that's all the time we have today boys and girls
26:19 but until next time I want you to remember
26:21 its Kids Time to share Jesus.
