00:03 It's time to share there's a world out there,
00:07 Looking for a friend like Jesus. It's time to share 00:11 there's a world out there; let's tell them 00:14 that He loves us so. Let's tell them that He loves us so. 00:20 Kids Time, kids Time, kids Time. 00:25 Hi, boys and girls. I am so glad to be here with you 00:27 today, it's been a pretty busy month for me and I am 00:29 just so happy to sit here and just spend a 00:31 little time and talk with you for a moment and 00:33 you do know my favorite thing to talk about don't 00:36 you that's right it's Jesus. Do you know why I like 00:39 to talk about Jesus so much, it's because Jesus 00:42 saved my life by dying on the cross for me, he 00:45 is my hero and when someone saves your life you 00:49 can't help but love him and talk about him all the 00:51 time right. Well, I heard a story about a family up 00:54 in Canada whose house started on fire late in the 00:57 night just a few years ago and all their children 01:00 were upstairs sleeping sound a sleep. When the 01:03 fire started somewhere downstairs so it already 01:06 spread all over the house by the time the whole 01:07 family realized what danger they were in. 01:10 Now, I want to just show you, see this match isn't 01:14 it amazing how a tiny fire like this, it can grow so 01:18 big that it can burn down an entire house, ooh! 01:21 And a lot of smoke too. Now do you think that 01:26 mommy and daddy went running right off the door 01:27 to save their own lives of course not, all they 01:29 could think about was saving their children and 01:31 so up the stairs the father ran all the time thinking 01:34 for not even thinking about his own safety, he was 01:36 thinking about his precious children and every 01:39 family member was saved. Now, do you think the 01:42 family stood around when the father got upstairs 01:44 and said I wonder if we should you know leave 01:46 the house. No, they got out as fast as they could 01:50 and what a night that was as they stood out in the 01:53 snow and just watched their beloved home burned 01:55 to the ground. But they were thankful because 01:58 they were all safe and alive. Well, today we'll 02:01 hear a Bible story about a family who was saved 02:04 from a huge fire, only this fire didn't just burn up 02:07 one house it burned up an entire city and all the 02:11 people in it, only one man and two of his 02:14 daughters got out alive. We'll hear the whole story 02:17 from one of the daughters in just a little 02:18 bit, but right now it's time to go to 02:20 the garden with Ms. Emily. 02:36 Hi, boys and girls. I am here in my gardens at the 02:39 University of Tennessee, in Knoxville, Tennessee. 02:42 And I am observing all of the birds that live in 02:45 my garden, do you hear the birds? They are so many 02:50 different kind of birds that live in my garden. 02:52 I like to there with my binoculars, I love to watch 02:55 the cardinals, the robins and my favorite bird 02:59 is a hummingbird. Did you know that the largest 03:02 bird is the ostrich, but do you think I have 03:05 ostriches in my garden, no, I do not have 03:08 ostriches but the smallest bird is called is the bee 03:12 hummingbird. I have a lot of hummingbirds that 03:14 live in my garden and there is a lot of things you 03:17 can do to attract birds to your garden. Birds like 03:20 to build their nests in big tall trees like you see 03:23 behind me and there is a couple of things that you 03:26 can do to help birds to build their nest. The first 03:28 thing that you can do is grab a mesh bag, normally 03:33 maybe you might get a bag of apples that come in 03:35 a mesh bag and then you can grab your favorite 03:38 pieces of yarn and put these in the bag and also 03:42 whenever you're drying your clothes go ahead and 03:44 grab the dryer lint that comes out, normally you 03:47 take this out before you dry your clothes and you 03:49 can put these all in a bag, close it up and then 03:53 hang it on a tree, this way the bird will be able 03:59 to come and get out all little pieces of yarn to 04:02 help it built its nest. Another thing that you can 04:06 do to attract birds to your garden is plant 04:08 special flowers. I love to plant flowers for 04:12 hummingbirds. Now, remember hummingbirds 04:14 are little birds and they flap their wings about 04:17 sixty times a second. Some of the flowers that you 04:21 want to plant should be red, hummingbirds love red 04:25 flowers. Here for example I have what is called a 04:29 Petunia, do you see how red this flower is, also 04:33 another thing that you want to look for is you 04:35 want flowers that are trumpet shaped, you can 04:39 see here that it has a long skinny point because 04:41 what hummingbirds do is they use their nose and 04:44 they get into the flower and drink all of the nectar. 04:48 Another one of my favorite plants to use is called 04:51 Nicotiana, you can see here that it's a pretty purple 04:54 color but hummingbirds still like it because of the 04:57 shape of the flower. See how long this part is? 05:01 And the last thing that you can boys and girls is 05:04 you can make your own bird feeder, just take a 05:08 half of an orange and clean out the insides, 05:11 tie strings on the ends and fill it with your very 05:16 favorite bird seeds. This ways birds have 05:20 something to eat all year long and just hang it in 05:23 your favorite tree may be outside of a kitchen 05:24 window or something. Well, boys and girls, I am 05:28 going to keep looking out for my favorite birds in 05:30 the garden but first I want to encourage you 05:32 to sow the seeds of God's love. 05:42 When I am afraid I will trust in you, 05:44 in God whose word I praise. In God I trust, 05:48 I will not be afraid, what can mortal man 05:50 do to me. Psalms 56:3 and 4. 06:21 When I am afraid I will trust in you 06:26 I will trust in you, I will trust in you 06:33 When I am afraid I will trust in you 06:38 In God whose word I praise. 06:44 When I am afraid I will trust in you 06:49 I will trust in you, I will trust in you 06:55 When I am afraid I will trust in you 07:00 In God whose word I praise. 07:06 In God whose word I trust, when I am afraid, 07:16 In God whose word I trust, In God whose 07:24 In God whose word I trust, 07:25 In God whose word I praise. 07:32 When I am afraid I will trust in you 07:36 I will trust in you, I will trust in you 07:43 When I am afraid I will trust in you 07:48 In God whose word I praise. 08:00 I trust you Lord, I really do. 08:16 Welcome to learning time I'm glad you joined us 08:19 today, now we got something special to show 08:21 you, now I have got two of my helpers over here. 08:24 I have got James, James thanks for helping us 08:26 today. Your welcome. And I've got Jonathan, 08:28 Jonathan, thank you. Your welcome. 08:30 Now, we've got some stuff on the table. Do you 08:32 like stuff? Yeah. Now, I will show you what I, 08:34 we got some science stuff right here, in fact 08:37 we might even have something that looks like 08:38 a toy. Now, lets look at James what does that look 08:41 like? An egg. Looks like an egg, but we're not 08:43 going to eat this, okay. Now, what I want to do is 08:46 James, I want to see if you can take this pencil 08:48 okay, it's a mechanical pencil. We're gonna try to 08:50 balance the egg, it has a little low tip right there 08:53 and maybe we could balance that right on 08:54 there. Okay, so balance it really good boys. Yeah. 08:57 Hang on, okay this is very difficult to do and 09:00 you have to have really good balance, I can't do 09:02 it at all James. But I'd be surprised if it's gonna 09:05 work today and it almost hit didn't it. 09:08 There is something kind of unique about this little 09:10 egg. This little egg has a little motor in it, 09:13 can you see some wheels right here, there's a 09:15 couple wheels in here, actually this little egg 09:18 happens be what we call a Gyroscope. Say it 09:22 gyroscope, now we can put this right in here 09:25 just like that James and lets see if we can get it 09:27 all tidy up. Hey, this a little button right there, 09:29 can, can you push that button for me. Can you 09:34 hear something. What do you hear? A motor. 09:38 A motor starting to run, can you hear the motor. 09:40 Yes. Which sounds like it's going to take off. 09:43 Wow, this little thing is spinning inside and it 09:46 makes the egg very, very stable and it turns 09:49 it into a gyroscope. Yeah, lets try it now James, 09:51 put it right there on the edge and I am going to 09:53 let this thing go. Wow! Look at that, James, 09:57 that's wonderful, how are you doing that? 09:59 Is that hard? No. It's not hard, because the 10:02 gyroscope makes the egg very, very stable, 10:06 that's what gyroscopes do, they stabilize things, 10:09 that is so cool and it's slowing down a little bit 10:12 isn't it. In fact are you shaking or is it vibrating. 10:15 It's vibrating. It's vibrating, it's going 10:18 really, really fast and it's gonna slow down. 10:20 What do you think is gonna happen when it 10:22 really slows down? It's gonna fall. You're gonna 10:24 fall? No. Well, what's gonna fall? The egg. 10:27 The egg's gonna fall, look at the gyro, here goes, 10:29 it's slowing down and it's starting to wobble 10:32 and wobble and it's getting, it is less stable 10:34 isn't it and pretty soon it's gonna fall to the 10:36 ground, but I hope I'll or maybe I can catch it. 10:39 Hang on now. And we got it. James, you've done 10:44 a good job. Thank you for helping us with that. 10:46 Now, we've got something else over here. 10:48 Jonathan, what does that look like? A bike tire. 10:51 Looks like a bike tire, I'll tell you what we're 10:53 gonna do. I'm going to have you stand over there 10:55 and I have a little rope and we're gonna hang this 10:57 tire on the rope because a bicycle tire can make a 11:01 gyroscope as well. So, If l let my hand go is the 11:04 wheel gonna stay up? Jonathan. No. Well, let's 11:07 try it. I'm gonna let my hand go. It crashes to the 11:10 floor, the wheel is not stable at all, but what we 11:13 can do then is to spin it, James just like the egg. 11:17 We got the gyroscope inside spinning and it 11:20 made it very clearly stable. So, lets get it really 11:23 spinning. Right, here we go Jonathan, look it up 11:27 right here and lets let it go and watch it. Wow, 11:31 you see that? It stabilized the wheel, but the wheel 11:34 is still spinning, but did it fall? No. Didn't fall at 11:38 all. Hey, you know what we can do, would you 11:39 like to make a toy out of this boys? Yeah. Okay, 11:42 grab a hold of the wheel, show us how you can 11:43 make a toy out of that wheel and he is gonna put 11:46 it right there. Wow, a gyroscope, a spinning 11:50 wheel and it's very stable isn't it? Not falling off 11:55 isn't it, at all, not at all, that's interesting. Now, as 11:58 it slows down you know what's gonna happen? 12:00 Yes. What's it gonna do? It's going to rotate. 12:03 It's gonna fall off from the table and we just 12:05 better put it on the floor so it doesn't fall 12:07 and break the floor. Well, we've got something 12:10 else on the table over here. Can you hand me 12:12 that instrument over here? Now, James what 12:14 does that look like? I don't know. It's something 12:21 that hardly anybody has ever seen, because a lot 12:23 of people never get a chance to see this thing, 12:26 this happens to be a gyroscope and these are in 12:29 airplanes. This came out of a military aircraft and 12:33 you know what it does? The pilot looks inside 12:36 here and sees that little window and it tells the 12:39 pilot what the plane is doing. 'Cause there's a 12:42 gyroscope inside and it tells the pilot if the plane 12:45 is going like this or it's going like or if the nose 12:49 of the aircraft is going down or the nose of 12:51 aircraft is climbing up higher. This reminds me 12:55 of something very important, you know what, 12:57 you know that God is the stabilizing force in 13:00 our lives. Yeah, he really is, so that we don't crash 13:03 in the floor, so that we can balance ourselves 13:06 with all the different things that we need to 13:07 do and we can become a very balanced person. 13:10 But God gives us that power just like spinning 13:13 these wheels and spinning this little gyroscope 13:16 inside the egg, gives all of these things a balance. 13:20 That's what I want in my life, I want balance, 13:23 I want a guiding forc and every time we learn 13:26 something new about science we're learning 13:29 something new about our creator God. 14:41 Oh a new face in the market. Yes. I haven't seen 14:44 you before, who might you be? Lot's daughter, 14:47 Abraham's nephew. Lot, the wealthy Lot. 14:51 Yes, a sister, one of the three people who escaped 14:54 from Sodom and Gomorrah. Tell me the 14:56 story what happen? Well, actually it was four that 14:59 originally escaped. Four, I must know the story 15:02 well. It's an important story, let me tell it to you. 15:05 You know Lot, he's my father, he used to always 15:08 be sitting at the gate of Sodom and Gomorrah, 15:11 looking for strangers to come because he had such 15:15 a hospitable heart. We've heard about the 15:17 hospitality of Lot, it's legendary. Yes, yes, he 15:21 always would bring people in and a lot of the reason 15:23 because he was trying to keep them safe, because 15:25 the city became so wicked. Oh! Sodom and Gomorrah 15:28 are wicked cities, that it was not safe to be on the 15:30 streets. Yes, and so one evening he saw two strangers 15:34 and he invited them to our home and after he been 15:38 in our home a while we realized they were no 15:39 ordinary strangers. Really? They were angels of 15:43 God. Angels in that house. From heaven, and they 15:46 gave us a serious warning, they said tonight 15:50 Sodom and Gomorrah is going to be destroyed by 15:53 God. Their wickedness had been too much and so. 15:58 You ran away from the city quickly? No, my 16:03 mother and father, they really wanted to see that 16:05 he get their family and many other people to come 16:08 with them. Well, that's reasonable. And so they 16:09 asked permission and this angel said yes, but you 16:12 must hurry. And so they went out into the city, 16:16 my father did, and talked to my sisters who were 16:19 already married and had their own families. Oh! 16:21 So, they came quickly with you? Oh, how I wish 16:24 that was true. But no, they were so sure that 16:28 Sodom and Gomorrah couldn't possibly be 16:30 destroyed and you know when you've been living 16:32 in wickedness for so long, you just don't have a 16:35 reference for God and for his, his warnings. 16:38 So, they stayed. And they didn't believe. 16:40 They just laughed at my father. Oh! That's so. 16:43 So my father came back to the house very sad. 16:46 And so then your father left quickly with you. 16:49 Well, not exactly, my mother just could hardly 16:52 bare the idea of leaving everything they had ever 16:55 worked for. They had a beautiful home and many 16:59 possessions and that she just could not bare the 17:03 thought of leaving her daughters in the city. 17:05 And so they kept stalling and trying to think of 17:07 another way but finally the angels literally took 17:12 them by the hand, took us by our hands and took 17:16 us out of the city and then they said, flee to the 17:20 mountains and they disappeared but before they 17:22 disappeared they said flee to the mountains and 17:26 don't look back, don't even look back and as we 17:31 were walking, my mother started complaining and 17:34 saying, I don't see why God has to take us away 17:37 from all of our things that we've ever known and 17:39 our families and everything, it just isn't fair. 17:43 You know what was really happening is her body 17:46 was with us, but her heart was still back with 17:51 all of her possessions and her family. And so we 17:55 were going along, come on mother we've got to 17:58 obey the angels and as we were going, she was 18:01 complaining again, and she said, she said, and 18:03 look back at my house. And then she turned into a 18:08 pillar of salt in that very position of looking back. 18:11 Why would God had told her not to do? God had 18:14 warned her not to look back and she disobeyed? 18:16 Yes. It's a lesson that we should all learn. 18:22 My sisters and I, that a lesson for us too, it is, 18:24 we will never forget it as long as we would live. 18:26 When God speaks and when you're dealing with 18:29 wickedness. We need to obey God. We need to 18:32 obey God. Oh! thank you for sharing that story. 18:36 Nice. And tell anybody that would listen to you 18:39 about this story because it's very important that 18:41 people learn to obey God and honor. Yes, thank 18:45 you for sharing that story with us. you know 18:48 sister we need to be more obedient to God too. 19:06 Jesus loves me! This I know, 19:12 For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to Him belong, 19:22 They are weak but He is strong. 19:27 Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! 19:37 Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so. 19:57 It's time for Ms. Brenda's book of the day, 20:01 and today's book boys and girls is called The 20:03 Great Sleepy-Time Stew Rescue by Charles Mills. 20:07 Let's read, it says Alex Timmons is volunteering 20:10 in a Cyprus Hill soup kitchen trying to earn a 20:12 Pathfinder cooking honor. But his terrible-tasting 20:15 concoctions are anything but Award-winning. 20:18 When Ben Gabbert, an out-of-work chef, and his 20:20 family wandering in for lunch, Alex tries to get 20:22 some pointers. It becomes clear, however that the 20:25 Gabberts are homeless and hiding a very painful 20:29 secret. I wonder what that is, but I am not going to 20:32 tell you, your gonna have to read the book, 20:34 The Great Sleepy-Time Stew Rescue by Charles 20:37 Mills. And oh, that looks like a good book. 20:39 Well today we have a wonderful program for you 20:42 on sharing time, because I have a special guest 20:45 Matthew. Matthew, thank for joining us today. 20:48 And where are you from Matthew? Ringold, 20:50 Georgia. Ringold, Georgia. Well, before we hear 20:52 what you do to share Jesus, I have a special, 20:54 a couple of special friends on the phone, I have 20:57 Jodie and Jamie on the phone. Are you there? 21:00 Yes, yes. Well, hi Jodie and Jamie. Hi. I am so 21:04 glad to talk with you, let me ask you this Jamie. 21:07 What you do to share Jesus? I like to read Bible 21:10 stories and see the little kids come, my mom 21:13 babysits and tell them that Jesus loves you. Oh! 21:18 Jamie that's a wonderful thing to do. Let me ask 21:21 Jodie, Jodie what's your favorite part about Kids 21:24 time? I like to bring all my friends to my church, 21:31 you like to take friends to church, that's a good 21:34 way to share Jesus isn't it? Yes. Do you guys 21:37 watch kids time a lot? Yes. Yes. We always. 21:41 You always do, well I am so glad to talk with you 21:44 and I want to encourage you to keep sharing Jesus 21:46 will you? Yes, yes, alright bye bye now. Bye. 21:50 Bye. That was so nice wasn't it Matthew. And it's 21:54 always exciting to me when I here kids tell how 21:56 they share Jesus and that reminds me, you have 21:59 something you've done to share Jesus, what do 22:00 you do? I went Maga-booking and 22:05 Maga-booking. Maga-books are a cross between 22:07 a magazine and a book, they're kind of in between 22:10 and when you go Maga-booking you go door 22:13 to door selling the books that tell about Jesus. 22:16 Oh! you do and let me ask you this, is it ever hard 22:19 for you to meet strangers. Yeah, in fact a lot of 22:23 times, I really didn't want to go and knock on the 22:25 door, but I just, every door I went to I'd pray to 22:29 God that he would help me. Tell me, did you have 22:31 any really neat experiences from that? You met 22:35 anybody that really struck on your mind? Well, 22:37 I met one girl well she was I don't know about 18, 22:43 20 something like that, anyway, she brought a book 22:48 from us that was about is called, I think it's called 22:51 Peace Above The Storm and she said I could 22:54 definitely use that and so. So, If you really saw 22:57 that you think people that were purchasing the 22:59 books would really read them. Yeah, yeah, and 23:01 you know I want to ask you this, did you pray 23:03 about, about them afterwards to make sure 23:05 the Holy Spirit was just really working on their 23:07 heart. No, that's, I can give you, Ms. Brenda give 23:10 you a suggestion that when you do that next time 23:12 after you, after you place that special book about 23:15 God in their hands, when you live that home just 23:17 pray an extra special prayer and ask the Holy 23:19 Spirit to really talk to their heart. Okay. Okay. 23:22 That's good, well thank you, did you enjoy 23:24 sharing Jesus. Yeah, I kind of, I was nervous. 23:28 You were nervous? Yeah. But you know the more 23:30 you share Jesus the easier it's gonna get for you 23:32 isn't it? I'm proud of you Matthew, that's 23:34 wonderful and you know what other boys and 23:36 girls, when they're, I'm seeing you on this 23:37 program I bet you they're gonna look at this and 23:39 say you know what Matthew admits he was 23:41 nervous, but he still could do it. You know maybe 23:43 I could too. Isn't that right boys and girls, 23:45 that's a wonderful way to witness. 23:47 Well, I have a couple of letters here let's see, 23:49 let's read an email. I love your emails and love 23:51 your letters boys and girls. This one says dear 23:54 Ms. Brenda my name is Katelyn and I'm nine 23:56 years old and I'm in the third grade, I have a sister 23:58 named Emily who is seven, and is in first grade 24:01 and I have also have a brother Kiefer, who is five 24:03 and in pre-school. Says, we have a dog name 24:06 Rosie, some fish and three goats and we try to 24:09 watch Kids Time every Sabbath but sometimes 24:11 we miss it. I play th violin and piano and Emily 24:15 plays the trumpet. It says I have diabetes and 24:19 Celiac Sprue, the diabetes means I have to check 24:22 my blood sugar and get insulin and I have to 24:24 measure all my food out. The Celiac Sprue means 24:27 I can't eat food containing gluten, it's pretty 24:29 complicated but I guess I live with it just fine. 24:33 Please pray for me, love Katelyn, and Katelyn, 24:35 from Sandy, Oregon. Well, Thank you Katelyn, 24:37 for your email, I love hearing from you. 24:39 And you know we're just gonna say a little prayer 24:40 for Katelyn, for her health problems okay. And 24:43 Katelyn, you share Jesus everywhere you go. 24:45 When you go to the hospital just tell them the 24:47 doctors and the nurses, tell them Jesus loves you. 24:50 And you'd be surprised, the smile will get on your 24:52 face. This letter here's from Laura Williams and 24:56 she's from Montana. Let's see what Laura has to 24:58 say, and it says dear Ms. Brenda thanks for all the 25:01 Bible lessons. So, you already take them. They are 25:04 so nice, how do you find the time to correct all the 25:06 kids lessons, it says and you are so very quick. 25:09 Every time I send my lessons in they are back in 25:12 just a couple of days, wow. It says my business is 25:15 good, I started a library and bakery, do you know 25:19 want to call me again sometime. I love talking to 25:21 you when you called me last time. Here's my 25:23 phone number, well I got to go. Love, Laura 25:25 Williams. Well Laura, it was nice to talk to you 25:27 too.
