00:01 It's almost time for Kids Time, we going to be late.
00:30 Hi, boys and girls I love cookies. 00:33 Actually, I like baking them even more than I like 00:36 eating them and I really like sharing them with others. 00:39 This is my grandson Michael, 00:41 and he likes cookies even more than I do. 00:44 He would rather eat them than bake them. 00:46 And sometimes his mother makes cookies and puts 00:49 them in a cookie jar to save for after meals. 00:51 His mother tells him, Michael, don't eat 00:53 any cookies between meals save them for after dinner. 00:56 Now, Michael knows it's wrong to steal the 00:58 cookies and eat them at the wrong time. 01:00 But, suppose he tells his brother, Jason 01:02 you go steal the cookies and bring them to me. 01:05 Would that be okay? Would it be alright for him 01:07 to eat them since his brother took them instead of him. 01:10 Of course, not. He would be still be guilty 01:13 of stealing the cookies, wouldn't he? Even though, 01:15 he had someone else do the dirty work for him. 01:18 Our Bible story today is about a man who wanted 01:20 something that belonged to someone else. 01:22 But, he knew it was wrong to take himself. 01:25 So, he had someone else do it. 01:27 We will hear that story in just a little while, 01:29 but first let's get ready for Nature Time. 01:38 Hi, boys and girls welcome to Nature Time. 01:41 We are up here in Western Montana. 01:43 In fact, we are at a very high elevation today. 01:46 We are over 7000 feet, high above Logan Pass 01:49 and beautiful glacier, National Park. 01:52 Boys and girls, I am standing 01:53 on a very special patch of snow. 01:57 This snow came down here from these mountains 02:00 up behind me Avalanche Snow. 02:05 Avalanches, let's talk just a little bit about a force 02:07 of nature that is extremely powerful. 02:10 Now, some forces of nature are very subtle. 02:13 Like the light rain that you might feel at the home 02:16 where you live or light breeze or the sunshine, 02:20 but an avalanche is very, very powerful and when it 02:23 breaks loose from high up here in these mountains and 02:26 these crazy rocks, it takes down everything with it, 02:29 as it moves towards the meadows or the valley below. 02:32 This snow I am standing on is probably 02:34 close to 25 feet deep. It's been accumulating 02:37 here all winter along, as the snow slides down. 02:40 Anytime, at the angle of the slope that the snow falls 02:43 on his over 30 degrees, there is potential for a slide. 02:47 Now, Avalanche slides come in many different forms 02:50 couple of the most common would be a powder slide, 02:53 which results from a lot of snow falling that's very light 02:57 and it just gets too heavy for the mountain that it is on 03:00 and it begins to slide down and begins to slide down. 03:04 Another slide, which is more common is a 03:07 slab slide, which accumulates over a period of time 03:10 anywhere from a few inches up to several feet. 03:13 And as time goes by, the snow changes 03:16 underneath becomes ice crystals 03:18 down underneath the first layer of snow. 03:21 As those ice crystals form they create a little bridge, 03:24 and a snow is actually hanging there on a little ice bridge. 03:28 When conditions arise sometimes it's a noise, 03:31 sometimes it's a vibration, sometimes it's for no 03:34 apparent reason, that slab of snow will let loose 03:37 and it will begin to slide down the mountain. 03:39 When that happens everything in its way 03:43 is destroyed or run over or smashed. 03:46 It's like some of the trees that we can see, that have 03:48 been in a way an avalanche, huge trees, I have seen 03:51 slopes from mammoth trees are just flattened, 03:55 hundreds of acres of them from one slide it just 03:58 destroys and now many people would say that's too bad, 04:00 all those trees destroyed they are beautiful greenery 04:03 and yet an avalanche is very, very important 04:06 for the environment high up here in these mountains 04:09 because what it does, it clears away the trees 04:11 leaving these large avalanche slopes. 04:13 In fact, you can see some of those slopes 04:15 may be up here behind me. Some of those slopes are very 04:18 important because as the trees and a large 04:20 foliage is wiped away, the grasses, the little 04:23 mountain, wild flowers, all of the little things 04:25 that the smaller animals and even a Grizzly Bear needs to 04:29 eat the skunk cabbage, sometimes the Cow Parsnip, 04:32 the Glacier Lilies, all of these plants grow 04:36 in this open sunshine and that allows the food 04:40 for the Elk, for the Bighorn Sheep, 04:42 for the Mountain Goat, for the Grizzly Bear, 04:44 some of the smaller creatures that we have seen, 04:47 The Hoary Marmot, the Pika, some of these little creatures 04:49 very, very necessary and not only for them, 04:52 but also for some of the predatory species 04:54 that actually rely on those animals for their very life. 04:58 And so up here in the mountains, these avalanches 05:01 are very, very necessary and they are also very beautiful. 05:05 If you ever have an opportunity to travel 05:07 somewhere where the mountains are really tall, 05:09 where avalanches can be take that opportunity 05:12 it's very, very beautiful. But, be careful, 05:15 if you are ever out in avalanche country and 05:17 there is snow to come, this snow is very safe, 05:19 very packed down. But, for skiers, for if 05:23 you want to go sliding, snowmobilers, outdoor 05:26 recreationalists, they go out in the winter time, 05:28 cross-country skiing be aware of the condition s 05:31 that you are traveling in. Make sure that you are not in 05:33 danger and so when you are out having fun 05:36 in the snow like we are here today be careful. 05:40 Until next time, this is Ranger Rod saying 05:43 let's all enjoy God's great outdoors. 06:00 Did you ever talk to God above? 06:05 Tell Him that you need a friend to love. 06:09 Pray in Jesus' name believing that God answers prayer. 06:18 Have you told Him all your cares and woes? 06:22 Every tiny little fear He knows. 06:27 You can know He'll always hear 06:30 And He will answer prayer. 06:36 You can whisper in a crowd to Him 06:40 You can cry when you're alone to Him 06:44 You don't have to pray out loud to Him; 06:49 He knows your thoughts. 06:53 On a lofty mountain peak, He's there. 06:58 In a meadow by a stream, He's there. 07:02 Anywhere on earth you go, 07:06 He's been there from the start. 07:11 Find the answer in His Word; it's true. 07:16 You'll be strong because He walks with you. 07:20 By His faithfulness He'll change you, too. 07:25 God answers prayer. 07:38 Welcome, to Learning Time. 07:39 Say, we've got a great experiment for you today. 07:42 And I have got a couple of helpers. 07:44 I have got Erica over here. Erica where are you from? 07:47 Calhoun, Georgia. Calhoun! and what do you like 07:50 to do best in a summer time? I love to do swimming. 07:53 Love to swim. I love to swim also. 07:54 And I have Cameron over here. Cameron 07:56 where are you from and what do you like to do? 07:58 I am from Nassau, Bahamas and I love to play basketball. 08:01 Oh! He loves to play basketball and you have 08:03 a lot of brothers and sisters, don't you? 08:05 Yes sir. Yeah. Who many brothers 08:06 and sisters you have? I have five sisters 08:08 and three brothers. Oh, so he comes 08:10 from a big family. How many of you 08:12 come from big family? Oh! Its nice to have 08:14 a big family. Today, we are gonna 08:15 talk about things that our around us all the time. 08:18 We might not realize how special they really are? 08:21 Once you go and pick up your balloon because a balloon is 08:23 made out of something that we call a polymer. 08:25 And polymer is very interesting. 08:27 Now, what's the problem about balloon blowing? 08:30 Is it ever difficult for you to blow up a balloon? 08:33 Yes. Yeah, but we can blow up 08:35 a balloon, we can make it easier by doing, what? 08:37 Stretching! Let stretch our balloon now. 08:40 And then we can blow our balloon now and we will 08:41 have an nice experiment, isn't it to do? Hang on. 08:44 Here we go. Are you ready? 08:45 Let's go. Let's go, blow it up. 08:51 Wow! And you know what balloons are really special 08:53 because they are made out of a polymer. 08:55 They stretch and they are very strong 08:57 unless you put something sharp on it. 08:59 Then, we can left the balloon out or the air out of it, 09:02 and it's precious, and we have 09:03 some things that we use a lot. 09:05 Sometimes, we use some safety glasses. 09:07 You know in this glass right here the shield, the plastic 09:10 part is made out of what we call a polymer and now polymer 09:13 protects our eyes because these are very, very strong. 09:17 Now, we have things like this right here. What's that? 09:19 A Frisbee. It's a Frisbee. 09:20 Do you like to throw Frisbees? Yeah. 09:22 I do too. We can have lots of fun and it's also made out of 09:24 polymer and is pretty flexible and it's pretty strong too. 09:28 Well, they help us to know and to remember about polymers. 09:31 So, I have this little, it's just, what is this anyway? 09:35 Beats! The beats, that's right, 09:37 in the round of cup, but you can't drink. 09:38 Why don't you hold that? 09:39 When a nice cereal mug right here and each one 09:41 of these cereal beats happens to represent 09:43 a polymer or long chains of molecules that's what 09:47 we are talking about because a polymer 09:49 is really long chains of molecules. 09:51 And I have these little beads right here. 09:53 It's one of those beads represents a molecule 09:56 and they are tied together in a long chain. 09:58 Now Erica is going to do something interesting. 10:00 She is gonna grab and hold of the end of that for us. 10:03 And this will help us to remind ourselves that 10:05 we have long chains of molecules even in our bodies. 10:08 Are you ready for the experiment? 10:10 Yes. We can go a 3,2,1 countdown 10:12 and Erica is going to let go off the chain. 10:14 Are you ready? Three, two, one! 10:18 Lets go, we can come up over here 10:19 and see oh, man! You see that. 10:24 Wow! Isn't cool? Yes. 10:26 Yes it's pretty cool. Each one of these cereal 10:28 beads represents a molecule and those molecules are 10:32 tied together, there are long chains of molecules. 10:35 Isn't great? Yeah. 10:37 You know we have polymers in our bodies 10:39 and God made us that way because without polymers 10:42 in our bodies, we couldn't live and we couldn't move 10:44 and our body wouldn't function. Isn't that great? 10:47 Yes. You know God knew 10:49 what was best for us and he created us with 10:51 those polymers. You know boys and girls remember, 10:54 when we learn more about science we 10:56 learn more about our creator, God. 11:06 Have you noticed how wicked 11:07 our city has been getting lately? 11:09 Yes, I have. Terribly wicked. 11:12 It's even gone clear to the whole country. 11:14 Yes. What's happening? You know, I think 11:18 it's that Jezebel. It is Jezebel. 11:21 She is so wicked and, Are you talking 11:23 about Queen Jezebel? Oh! Yes, We are. 11:27 Oh, please don't tell her that we were talking about her 11:30 please, please don't. Don't worry. I believe 11:34 in the God of Heaven. Oh! Prays God. 11:37 Oh! Prays Lord. Prays the Lord. It must be 11:40 difficult living in the palace. Oh! It is. It's so horrible. 11:45 Most people in the palace believe in wicked, wicked 11:49 Gods' because of Jezebel's influence. She, 11:52 But, doesn't your father live in the palace? 11:54 Oh! Yes. Oh! it's very hard to keep faithful to God, 11:58 but you know he is, he is such a good 12:02 Diana, we are leaving soon be ready. Yes dear. Oh. 12:06 How are you today? Alright. 12:09 Just came into serious whole grove of idols 12:12 that is terrible. Well, I heard about it. 12:15 I haven't seen it. This City is getting so wicked 12:18 and when you look over here and is 12:19 idols over here and idols over there and Ahab 12:22 is to let Jezebel just run the whole show. 12:24 Yes. We just don't know 12:26 what to do anymore. It is getting so terrible. 12:28 Now, we have the all new guards. 12:30 Yes. Oh, I don't know what we are going to do because 12:33 everywhere you look at, Levi, Levi, come over here. 12:37 You coming from the palace? Tell us what's going on? 12:40 Oh, strange things have been happening in the palace. 12:43 Ever since I was promoted, did you hear about my promotion? 12:46 Well, I heard. There was something about that. 12:48 Well, it's not a good thing at all. 12:49 No. You see the king always 12:51 had this kind of right hand man that always, 12:53 yes goes with him and they 12:55 usually last for about a month or two before 12:57 the king gets mad and vanishes them or worse, 13:01 so I am the new head man for the king 13:05 and well the other day we were out walking. 13:09 I mean walk past near Naboth's vineyard, 13:11 and I am sure you've heard of Naboth's vineyard. 13:13 Yes. It is amazing and we were 13:14 walking along and Ahab was admiring 13:17 all of the trees and the fruit and everything 13:19 he said what's going, just walk around. 13:22 So okay your majesty, sure. 13:24 And we walked in and he was tasting some of the 13:27 fruit and pretty soon we stumbled on Naboth, 13:30 he was right there working on a bush, doing something 13:33 and Ahab said, and Ahab turned, Oh, Your Majesty, 13:39 you know, it's such an honor for you to come and visit me. 13:42 Ahab said, oh! yes it is and I have another honor for you 13:45 actually, I would like this vineyard. And I saw Naboth, 13:50 he just kind of went Ah,! Did he just want to be 13:52 given the vineyard? Yeah, he said, well no, 13:54 he said I will pay for it or I will give you 13:57 a better vineyard. and I felt really sorry for 14:00 Naboth because you know, this vineyard has been his 14:02 family for generations. Yeah. 14:04 And Naboth said your majesty with all respect this vineyard 14:09 has been my family forever and ever since my wife died, 14:15 I just spend all my time out here because it reminds me 14:18 of the good times and I am sorry sir, but I couldn't 14:21 part with it. This made Ahab furious. He held his breath 14:27 and his face got red and he spitted and sputtered and 14:30 just stormed right out of there and I tried to keep up 14:33 and we went all the way back to the palace and 14:35 Ahab threw himself on his bed and started crying and 14:39 throwing things and I didn't know what to do. 14:42 So, I went and I brought some of his favorite food 14:45 and he smashed out of my hands and so I brought 14:47 him some of his favorite things to drink and he threw 14:49 that across the floor, in that situation, 14:51 and oh, I had no idea what to do and then all of sudden 14:55 everyone got really quiet in the room and I knew that 14:59 the Jezebel had come. I turned around and there 15:02 she was and she glared at me. And she walked over 15:04 she sat down on the bed beside Ahab and put his 15:07 head in her lap and she kinda stroke and said, 15:10 dear, what is matter? Ahab, threw all of his tears, 15:14 told about how he wanted the vineyard and how 15:16 Naboth wouldn't give it to and then she said, oh! 15:19 I am so sorry. She said that's no way for a king to behave. 15:22 Here eat some food. I will take care of everything. 15:26 Oh, Jezebel takes care of things. 15:29 Well, she told me to go get some food, so I didn't hear 15:31 what her plan was, but few days later I figured it out. 15:35 You see that the leaders of the town called a fast and 15:38 they invited Naboth and they put him in this 15:40 prominent place right in the middle and right in the 15:43 prominent place right in the middle and right in the 15:44 middle of the fast, these two scoundrels that are 15:45 either side of him, they jumped up and accused him 15:48 and they said, I heard this man blaspheme God and the King 15:52 Oh no and the other guy 15:54 jumped and said, I heard him curse God 15:55 and the King too. Poor Naboth, never knew, 15:59 The people, they got maddened, they started beating him. 16:02 They took him outside of the town and they 16:04 stoned him to death. Well, the next day Jezebel 16:08 walked in, she said Ahab, Naboth is gone and 16:13 the vineyard is ours. Wicked woman. Very, 16:17 Well, Ahab was so happy, he jumped up and he ran 16:20 to the vineyard tonight. I stayed behind 16:21 and when we got in there I felt awful. 16:24 I felt like I was trespassing. But, Ahab was laughing and 16:27 tasting food and he was just so happy. 16:31 I was kind of dragging my my feet behind him, 16:32 I understand, and all of a sudden I heard 16:34 Ahab scream and I ran up to him and there right 16:39 in front of him, was this big man with a big beard 16:42 and he had this camel skin cloak on and a big leather 16:45 band around him. Who was he? 16:47 It was Elijah, the prophet. Elijah! 16:49 Elijah was right there. Prophet Elijah! 16:52 And they have said, so my old enemy you found me. 16:57 And Elijah wasn't sacred at all. 16:59 He said the Lord says you murdered a man and took 17:04 his property, thus say at the Lord justice will be served. 17:11 And Ahab just fell apart. He ripped his clothes and 17:15 he fell on to the ground and he took dirt and sprinkled it 17:18 in his hair and he said I have sinned 17:20 and he humbled himself right there in front of Elijah. 17:24 He was sincere? I don't know, 17:27 but soon Elijah was gone and I helped the king back 17:30 and we went back to the palace and it just, it really 17:33 struck me because here was the king and he was begging 17:37 for forgiveness and it made me think about myself and 17:42 I don't sacrifice to the idols like Ahab and I don't do 17:46 some of the things that he does but there are many 17:49 times in the palace where I don't do the right thing 17:52 because, because I am scared. 17:55 Wow! and I don't standup 17:57 for God like I should and seeing him repent makes 18:00 me want to repent too. We see all this evilness 18:03 around us and we need to just, feel like we just 18:08 need to be close to God. Yeah. 18:10 Well, I have to go, but Well, thank you for telling us, 18:14 yes thank you, and we appreciate all 18:15 the information. Okay. Thank you. 18:16 Yeah. Do have a good day now. 18:17 Yeah, yes. Oh! That's just terrible. 18:19 It's just getting so bad. Well, listen I know 18:21 you have to go too, so you have a good day 18:24 and don't forget now those idols. 18:26 Yes, when I come in on that hill, yes, 18:29 I am going to go better destroy 18:30 them, yes alright. I am going to destroy them. 18:33 Yes. Okay. 20:57 Hi, boys and girls it's time for 20:59 Miss Brenda's book of the day. 21:02 And this is a wonderful Book. It's called 21:04 A Perfect Star, by Heather Grovet. 21:07 Kendra with Ann and Megan are best friends 21:09 who love writing the ponies together. 21:12 And when Kendra receives a English saddle for her 21:14 birthday, the girls start dreaming of when they are 21:16 gonna be going into, jumping off of the hedges 21:19 and the fences, and just like the writers they saw on TV. 21:23 One problem is though Kendra discovers that her 21:26 pony star, won't jump over even a smallest obstacles. 21:30 Now, this is a big problem but, you gonna have to wait 21:34 and read all about it on A Perfect Star by 21:37 Heather Grovet, you gonna love this book. 21:39 I want introduce you right now to someone very 21:41 special to me and her name is Healy. 21:44 Healy, thank you so much for being with me on 21:46 Sharing Time and I know that you do a lot to share 21:49 Jesus, don't you? Yes, I do. 21:51 You know, I met you at 3ABN camp meeting actually 21:54 for the fist time and you said something that just 21:56 really, just really touched my heart and 22:00 do you remember what that was? 22:01 I gave my heart to Jesus because of Kids Time. 22:05 That's right and I think are having a Kids Time T-shirt 22:07 on here and Kids Time is really important to you. 22:11 Your story that you shared with me that was really just, 22:14 it was very heart touching because your mom died 22:17 last year and you didn't grow up going to church 22:21 every Sabbath, did you? No. 22:23 And so, after your mom died you went to live with 22:25 your aunt and at your aunt's house, she loves Jesus and 22:30 she had 3ABN and you were able to watch. 22:33 Kids Time. Kids Time, and you signed 22:35 up for Bible studies and in fact you told me that 22:37 you recognize this Bible because where did 22:39 you see this Bible? Well, when I finished 22:42 all the studies I got one of those Bibles. 22:44 That's right. When you sign up for Kids Time 22:46 when you finish all the studies, Miss Brenda sends you 22:49 one of these beautiful new Bible to you, have one 22:51 of these Bible and you gave your heart to Jesus and 22:54 you were baptized. And I just I want to tell you 22:58 that just means so much to me and it really 23:00 touched my heart a lot and I know you missed 23:03 your mom a lot, but one thing that just we can 23:07 look forward to is that we know that some day 23:09 when we get to heaven there is not going 23:11 to be anymore death. 23:12 There is not going to be more tears. 23:13 There is not going to be more happiness, 23:15 but each days can be more wonderful, more precious 23:18 the day before. I'm looking forward to that, aren't you? 23:21 Yes. Well, what are some other 23:23 things that you do to share Jesus. 23:25 Well, I sing for people in nursing homes 23:32 and I also go to, I go on this I was walking around this 23:38 block and I talked to this one boy and I asked him 23:44 if he needed anything to pray for and he said 23:47 yeah, I just gonna a back car accident. 23:49 Oh! No, and I need and so he 23:53 needs help with his back. So, I had a prayer for him. 23:57 Oh! That's wonderful. And then as were going 24:01 down the street, we came up to this one lady and she lost 24:04 her sister like I lost my mom and so we started talking and 24:08 getting to know each other and I gave her hugs and 24:11 encouraged her to share Jesus. Oh, because you understood 24:15 how she felt, yes, 24:16 how it feels to lose someone that you love 24:19 and so it kind of gives you a heart for other doesn't it? 24:22 Yes. And so and you are not 24:24 embarrassed at all to pray with people, I love that 24:26 about you because you really love Jesus that much. 24:29 Well, you know, let's read some of the letters. 24:32 Do you wanna to help me today, sure, 24:33 and we will see well, I got a couple of letters 24:36 in here and oh, I just can't think to even 24:38 know, which ones to read boys and girls. I love reading 24:40 the letters from you. Lets see, this one is for 24:45 lets see, this is for, this is from, this is from 24:51 Allison. Well, lets see what 24:53 Allison says. Dear Ms. Brenda 24:55 I enjoyed hearing you speak at our 24:57 New York camp meeting. Ms. Brenda, went up 24:59 there to speak. I especially enjoyed hearing 25:02 about the new Kids Times and the dog Maxwell. 25:05 I am excited for the new Kids Time programs to air. 25:07 All the kids in SAVISCO class wanted to help 25:11 sponsor Maxwell. Well, I tell you the whole 25:14 story, we raise some money my mom saw this thing on 25:16 TV about a school teacher that gave each of her students 25:19 $10 and she sent them out to make more money 25:22 with their $10. So, my mom gave each of us 25:25 in our SAVISCO class $20 and one Sunday, we had a 25:28 big sale and we made over $300 and we want to share 25:33 some of this with Maxwell to help sponsor his food 25:37 and I hope it's a big help because we love Maxwell 25:40 and we love Kids Time. Well, we'll talk to you 25:42 later bye, Allison. Well, that's nice and look 25:45 at Maxwell, he is enjoying the program. Maxwell just 25:47 likes to sleep all the time boys and girls, doesn't he? 25:51 And he just seems, but he is just such a good 25:53 Kids Time dog.
