00:01 It's almost time for Kids Time, we're gonna
00:03 be late. It's time to share
00:06 there's a world out there, Looking for a
00:09 friend like Jesus. It's time to share there's a
00:14 world out there. Let's tell them that He loves
00:18 us so. Let's tell them that He loves us so.
00:24 Kid's time, kid's time, kid's time, kid's time, kid's time.
00:31 Hi! Boys and girls have you ever wonder what
00:33 God looks like. The Bible really doesn't tell us
00:36 a lot about that, but we know we are created in
00:38 his image, so when we find to see him face to
00:41 face in heaven we are going to be
00:43 amazed to his glory.
00:45 Back in Bible times, the Romans and Greeks
00:47 told stories about all kinds of Gods that they
00:49 thought existed and there Gods were strange
00:52 and scary looking. I'm so glad that kind of
00:54 God isn't in charge of the Universe.
00:56 Our God the only true God is loving and
00:59 patient and wise and good in everyway.
01:02 Back then people really had no idea what their
01:04 God looks like, so if a man did something
01:06 wonderful or amazing other people might start
01:09 worshiping him. And that's exactly what
01:11 happened to some early Christian
01:13 missionaries, who tried to tell about the real
01:16 God in heaven. We are here all about that in
01:18 our Bible story today, but first let's get ready
01:21 for are you ready Max, hey Max come on
01:24 wake up, hey wake up, it's nature time.
01:33 Hi! Boys and girls welcome to nature time.
01:36 We are in beautiful Western Montana and in
01:38 fact we are in Glacier National Park today and
01:40 it is absolutely beautiful. The sun is
01:43 shining, we got some fairly heavy wind,
01:46 we have also got the hoary marmot.
01:48 The hoary marmot is out, he is getting some
01:49 sun, he doesn't get lot of it way up here in the
01:52 high mountains. In case you are wondering
01:54 what the hoary marmot might be, he is a small
01:56 animal all I say about this big and he is sort
01:59 like a Woodchuck, maybe you've heard of
02:00 those. He is very free, but he is not very
02:05 friendly. If you touch one, he will bite you
02:10 I promise. Now the hoary marmot is called
02:11 the hoary marmot because his hair is
02:12 white, its kind of a hoary color.
02:14 He is a marmot, part of the marmot family.
02:17 They live in very high elevations. They live all
02:20 through out the West, Western United States
02:22 and in countries that have high mountains.
02:24 He lives in the rocks like you see behind us
02:26 here. The hoary marmot lives in these rocks.
02:28 He digs a tunnel inside there and he comes out
02:30 when the sun shine in and when it's a nice day
02:32 he eats grass and he keeps a sharp look out
02:36 because there are some predators up here in
02:38 these mountains like the wolverine and may
02:41 be the mountain lion occasionally a grizzly
02:45 bear, they will dig these guys out,
02:46 they dig into the rocks, big strong grizzly bear
02:49 he can roll a rock right out of the way and get
02:52 to this hoary marmot and so the hoary marmot
02:54 is always got his eyes peeled. He is looking
02:56 around, he is trying to see if there is any
02:58 predators around and he eats this grass some
03:01 of these beautiful glacier lilies that you
03:02 seen here he eats those glacier lilies and
03:05 something very interesting one of the
03:07 most incredible things I believe about the
03:09 hoary marmot is the fact that he is hibernating
03:12 during the winter time. Hibernating means that
03:15 he goes to sleep, it's a very, very deep sleep
03:17 for the hoary marmot in fact he sleeps so
03:21 soundly that his temperature drops all
03:23 the from 97 degrees, which is almost the
03:26 temperature of your human body all the way
03:29 down to 40 degrees, so he is very cold inside
03:32 his little fur coat all through the winter while
03:34 he is hibernating not only does he drop his
03:37 temperature, but his breathing rate slows down
03:40 considerably in fact it will slow down to one
03:44 beat, excuse me, one breath every six minutes.
03:49 Also his heart rate, his heart rate slows down
03:52 from 100 beats per minutes all the way down
03:56 to four beats per minute and so he is sleeping
04:00 soundly way underneath those rocks waiting
04:02 for spring to come and out here in Montana up
04:05 here in Glacier National Park spring doesn't
04:07 come very early in fact we are here in the
04:08 middle of July and we got lots of snow on the
04:11 ground. The hoary marmot has just come out
04:13 and he will as soon as the snow comes back
04:16 and starts covering the ground again usually
04:19 late September, early October the hoary
04:22 marmot goes back into his cave and he sleeps
04:24 all through, all through November and
04:26 December and January and February and
04:29 March and April and May. It is amazing how
04:34 God has created a creature that can spend
04:36 so much time in hibernation, so much time
04:39 without his regular heartbeat, without his
04:42 regular breaths, without his regular
04:44 temperature and yet still be alive and
04:46 vibrant and beautiful all through the summer.
04:49 Boys and girls until next time this is Ranger
04:52 Rod saying let's all enjoy Gods great outdoors.
05:09 Savior, like a shepherd lead us,
05:16 much we need Thy tender care;
05:24 In Thy pleasant pastures feed us,
05:32 for our use Thy folds prepare.
05:39 Blessèd Jesus, blessèd Jesus!
05:47 Thou hast bought us, Thine we are.
05:54 Blessèd Jesus, blessèd Jesus!
06:02 Hear, O hear us when we pray
06:10 Blessèd Jesus, blessèd Jesus!
06:18 Thou hast bought us, Thine we are.
06:25 Blessèd Jesus, blessèd Jesus!
06:41 Savior, like a shepherd lead us,
06:47 Jesus hast bought us, Thine we are.
07:06 Welcome to learning time. Thanks for joining
07:08 us today, you know, we got an interesting
07:10 science experiment. We are gonna use some
07:12 things like you may have around the house
07:13 and they are on my table right here,
07:15 but hey before we get into that we got three
07:17 helpers and I want to introduce them.
07:19 I have got Erica over here. Now Erica what do
07:22 you like to do when you are not doing school?
07:25 I like to ride horses. Ride horses.
07:27 Well, that's interesting and that's kind of fun
07:29 to isn't great and I've got Rena over here,
07:32 Rena what do you like to do when you are,
07:34 you are not studying? I like to jump ropes.
07:38 Like to jump ropes, you know, jump ropes are
07:39 great form of exercises isn't it yeah and thanks
07:42 for being with us. I have got D. Derby over
07:44 here and D. Derby, what do you like to do
07:46 when you are not in school?
07:49 Play outside. Oh! Playing outside,
07:51 you know, playing is important isn't it.
07:53 Oh! You know because we need all that
07:54 physical activity. Oh! Hey why don't my
07:56 helpers come on up here and let's see what we
07:58 have got. Okay, hey want to come to the back
08:00 of this table right over here, okay and Erica
08:03 you can sit right in here you know I've got
08:05 some objects up here, you know,
08:06 what these things are cans, cans,
08:08 guess where I found these.
08:10 In a trash can. In a trash can,
08:12 do you throw these things away.
08:14 No. What should we do
08:17 instead of throwing them away
08:19 Recycle. You know recycling
08:20 is really important isn't. Well these cans
08:21 are made out what kind of material.
08:23 Aluminum. Aluminum that's right.
08:25 Aluminum is very light isn't, but you know
08:27 every can is made out of three different types
08:30 of Aluminum isn't that cool. The bottom is a
08:32 different type, then the top and then this little
08:34 flip tap right here that's even a different top
08:37 then the sides of a can. Well, today what we
08:39 are gonna do is an experiment with our
08:41 cans and we are gonna look at some air
08:43 pressure and have some kind of fun right.
08:46 Okay, so this is what I need to do. I need to
08:47 have Erica, I want you to hold this little plastic
08:50 tube this made out of Acrylic plastic. Okay,
08:53 we are gonna hold it just about like there and I
08:55 see D. Derby and Rena why don't you hand
08:57 me some cans okay and you know what we
08:59 are gonna do with these cans, we are gonna
09:01 load our little plastic can. This is a little can
09:04 we are gonna put it in here, now when I drop
09:06 the first can watch what happens see if it goes
09:09 down fast or slow, alright, are you ready.
09:12 Yeah. Okay, that sought of
09:13 visible to our eyes let's drop our first can in
09:17 herein. Oh! Well that went down pretty what quickly Yeah.
09:19 Okay, and let's do the next one and notice
09:21 there might be a difference here as a
09:22 second can is that slower.
09:25 Yeah. Now what do you
09:26 suppose the second can went down little
09:28 slower have any idea.
09:31 Air compression. That's right we are
09:32 trying to compress the air and how.
09:34 The first can is blocking the air way, so we
09:37 can't push the air out of the tube and so the air
09:39 is kind of being compressed that's right
09:41 air is what we call matter right ha air is
09:44 matter, it has weight, and it takes up space,
09:47 so we are gonna load this thing up. Hey thanks
09:49 for doing that okay just like that.
09:51 Why don't you step back behind the table
09:53 again. Now Erica is going to aim our little
09:56 and this is a kind of little like an air can and
09:58 she is gonna aim it right over here, right over
10:00 these guys heads, but you know what since we
10:02 are having some flying objects coming around
10:04 you may want to put your safety glasses on
10:07 okay and if they come at you, you can kind of
10:10 catch them, but don't crush them we are gonna
10:11 need them for another experiment are you ready
10:14 Yes. Okay now I happen to have a little leaf blower
10:16 right here and it puts out lot of air,
10:19 so how does this work. Oh! Just like that.
10:22 Okay, alright, we got it. Alright, here we go
10:25 are you ready, we are gonna blast the cans out
10:27 by force of air, okay we are gonna put it right there.
10:31 How about a 3, 2, 1 lets go 3, 2, 1.
10:35 Let's try it here we go
10:40 and they shut up hey why don't you help
10:42 Rena and D Derby, why don't you get those
10:44 cans, lets bring them back and we are gonna
10:46 reload our little cannon okay so bring them
10:49 back over here and hey did they go far yes
10:54 they were flying through the air because we
10:56 use air pressure to push them out. The air
10:59 pressure was behind the can, lets load the first
11:02 one, is it gonna go fast or slow.
11:04 Fast. And yup it went fast
11:06 again now we are trapping air in the tube
11:09 bottom way, so we are gonna kind of
11:10 compress the air and the next one goes slower
11:13 and is slow and is slow. Oh! Man this can't go
11:18 all dented up, I'll tell you, let's not use that
11:19 can we are just gonna use fourth of this one okay.
11:21 Okay why don't you put those cans up here in
11:24 the table and step back and you know we are
11:26 gonna do something different this time
11:28 instead of putting the air at the end of the
11:32 tube we are gonna blast some air right across
11:35 the tube is it that sound kind of strange.
11:37 Yes. What do you think that
11:39 the cans are going to come out if we do that
11:42 having air going this way.
11:43 Yeah. Well lets find out,
11:46 lets get our little, lets get this little air
11:49 machine out here, little leaf blower and lets
11:51 try it, are you really ready.
11:53 Yeah. Okay I may have to find the right angle,
11:55 how about a count down here 3, 2, 1
12:04 and you know and they didn't come out didn't
12:06 they isn't that interesting. Well what we
12:07 did was this, we actually had a lot of air
12:11 moving very, very fast over the top across a
12:14 little tube right here and you know what that
12:16 did that created some air pressure that we call
12:19 lower air pressure. When air is moving very
12:22 fast, we get low air pressure, the high air
12:25 pressure just push the cans right out of the
12:28 tube isn't that amazing yeah that really is
12:32 amazing you know we can have fun using air
12:34 pressure you know what you know the birds
12:36 use air pressure all the time you
12:37 know that don't you. Yes.
12:38 They have wings and those wings use air
12:40 pressure without that air pressure the birds
12:44 couldn't fly and Aeroplanes couldn't fly
12:46 either. Well you might try this at home,
12:47 but you might need some help. What you need
12:49 is a plastic tube and some of those recycle
12:52 cans, recycle our cans because you know what
12:54 God wants us to take good
12:55 care of our resources doesn't he.
12:57 Yes. On planet earth
12:59 that's right. Hey thanks for helping me with
13:01 this and you know boys and girls whenever
13:03 we learn more about science,
13:05 we are learning more about our creator God.
13:15 Oh! That nose is yours. What about my nose?
13:18 It snores. No, I do not snore.
13:21 It snores and its loud, I hadn't had a
13:23 week of sleep in six weeks.
13:25 So, what do you want me to do, stay up all night.
13:26 If you would, so that I can sleep,
13:28 I would appreciate it.
13:29 We will work on it, we will work on it,
13:31 I appreciate very much, thank you.
13:34 Oh! Barnabas come over here, come over here
13:37 Oh! Yeah. Come and tell us about
13:38 what things were going. Oh! First thing is first,
13:40 rather our young believers in Lystra want
13:42 us to bring you this money.
13:44 Oh! Well thank you. God bless.
13:46 This is not something new
13:48 believers are worried about you fellows here in
13:51 Jerusalem to bring money. Praise God, praise God.
13:54 That is incredible, we serve the loving God,
13:56 don't we, we do. Well, what's happening in
13:57 Lystra tell us about it? Oh! We got to tell you an
14:00 unbelievable story. Oh! Go ahead tell him
14:02 about it. We have been roughed
14:05 up in Laconia, we had the leave and so we wanted
14:08 to go to a nice quite tranquil place,
14:10 Lystra is a nice place. Yes.
14:11 Beautiful city, okay. Very responsive to the
14:14 gospel of Jesus. Oh! Praise God.
14:16 We started telling them about the life,
14:19 the death, the resurrection.
14:22 Paul tell them the story about the young man
14:24 that was healed. There was one,
14:25 one fellow, his eyes never left is as we
14:28 talked he just was so keen in every word.
14:31 Just fixed on you. Yes. Yes.
14:33 But, he has been crippled from birth, from birth.
14:36 Crippled from birth and Bible took a step in his
14:38 life. The Holy Spirit almost at the same time,
14:42 the Barnabas and myself, we looked at him and
14:48 said in the name of Jesus get up and walk.
14:53 His muscles started to twitch, he kept his eyes
14:57 on us, he stood up, he stood up and he jumped
15:00 and he ran and he leave. Unbelievable.
15:03 Crippled from birth and he has jumped up,
15:05 he was jumping although, I couldn't believe it.
15:07 Can you imagine. Oh! Isn't that amazing.
15:10 Oh! Oh! Praise God.
15:11 And so, just like Jesus would have done.
15:13 Yes. And when we tried to,
15:14 we tried and start to say and Jesus the God of
15:18 the Universe and they said no.
15:21 No. They looked at Barnabas,
15:22 what they said about you?
15:23 Well, first of all they thought I was a God,
15:25 I was a God, can you imagine that.
15:27 You God, you are a God. And Paul, a God of all
15:29 people. Paul a God.
15:31 They called me mercury, they called him
15:33 Jupiter, well he looks like a healthier guy
15:36 then you. He is twice as much as I do.
15:41 We said no, no, we tore our robes and said we
15:44 are not Gods, there is nothing about us and we
15:46 went back to Jesus, he always got to go back to
15:49 Jesus. Always go back to Jesus.
15:50 And how did they take that?
15:52 We started talking about creation.
15:54 Paul tell, yeah, first of all, we know that they
15:56 worship the sun and the moon and so we started
15:59 talking about that beautiful sun and the
16:01 beautiful moon and we said our God created
16:05 the sun, that's right, and the moon.
16:07 And they are not Gods. And the trees and the
16:09 flowers and grass and everything that he they
16:11 see. And so what did they think of that.
16:12 Well they were listening, we continued to bring
16:15 in the God of creation and then we brought in
16:17 the birth of Jesus, we started to ride to
16:21 Bethlehem and we ride through the life of Jesus.
16:25 You have to remember these folks have never
16:26 heard of God that alone Jesus Christ.
16:29 Woh! So, how did they take this,
16:30 how did they respond. Well, well they were
16:32 responding very well, everything was going
16:34 well until some Judaizers came in.
16:40 The Judaizers, yes what did they do?
16:42 They started stirring up the people, they started
16:45 twisting our words everywhere we go these
16:48 guys come in and start stirring up, they are so
16:52 loud, they are so sincere, they are so wrong.
16:55 Though they got all the people against you,
16:58 crowds as you have discovered can change
17:02 very quickly. They first call us gods,
17:08 we tear our robes and say we are not Gods then
17:11 they take us to the edge of town and start
17:18 throwing stones at us, throwing stones, yes.
17:21 Well, they threw stones at Paul. I sort of got out
17:24 of town on that when there.
17:25 Where were you? Well, I thought if they
17:27 stoned you and killed you, I would have to be
17:29 alive to continue to spread the message of
17:31 Christ, so I got out of town, that's good
17:33 thinking, I was thinking of myself. Paul,
17:36 I'm sorry, it's alright, you were there to help
17:39 me up. How did you make out
17:41 if you were stoned, well it was pretty tough
17:44 believe me. I got right back up.
17:46 They must have thought you were dead,
17:48 as they left and I was perfectly still. Barnabas
17:52 came along, held me up, and we went back,
17:57 yes back, why back to, into Lystra.
17:59 You went right back into Lystra.
18:01 Good saved him. Yes, he saved him.
18:03 From those stones, they gave, they gave us the
18:07 money for you fellows. Yes.
18:09 They told us please come back, which only if
18:12 the Lord tells me I'm going back, they said
18:15 please come back and we left to ahead here.
18:19 You came here, straight from there.
18:21 And nobody else bothered you.
18:23 No. That's been a long trip.
18:25 So you just arrived just now.
18:27 Right, but I still feel the impact of Lystra.
18:31 Oh! I sure you would do. Oh! That's, that's
18:33 terrible thing to be stoned.
18:34 And to live through it, has anybody ever lived
18:37 through that before. Well we've been
18:40 ship rect, we have been dragged out of town,
18:45 we have been beaten, you got bit by a snake.
18:47 The snake. I thought you were
18:50 gone that night Paul, I thought you were gone.
18:53 I shook that snake off and went into the fire,
18:56 I kept waiting for you to slow up and it
18:58 didn't happen. But if I had a
18:59 choice between the snake and stones of Lystra,
19:02 I take the snake. But God has
19:05 protected you from all these terrible things.
19:07 God has got through it. It's amazing what you
19:09 can do to the power of God brother.
19:11 Praise God, praise God. Praise God.
19:12 Listen, we need to go get some rest. He has
19:15 been saying he hasn't been getting any sleep,
19:17 Lystra, we got to go. Lystra, we want you
19:20 Yes, yes, just have a look,
19:21 oh! You have got a strong point.
19:23 Is everything is alright? We don't want anyone.
19:24 No, no, we are fine. God takes care of us,
19:27 we want you to have this for your personal use,
19:28 we know you just get in the town,
19:30 God bless you. That's for you,
19:32 we will use it for the next mission.
19:33 Thank you, thank you for telling us.
19:35 You'll need it for your expenses Paul.
19:37 Okay, alright folks, thank you praise the God.
19:39 Is not much, God bless, bless you, that's very
19:44 generous of them to give this.
