00:01 It's almost time for Kids' Time.
00:03 We're gonna be late. 00:04 It's time to share there's a world out there 00:08 looking for a friend like Jesus 00:11 It's time to share there's a world out there 00:16 Let's tell them that He loves us so 00:20 Let's tell them that He loves us so 00:24 Kids' Time, Kids' Time, Kids' Time, Kids' Time 00:31 Hi, boys and girls, 00:33 I've been thinking lately a lot about wisdom 00:36 and I realized that it's not that hard to be smart, 00:39 but it's a lot more difficult to be wise. 00:42 After all being smart is just gaining knowledge 00:44 about things like memorizing facts 00:47 but being wise is knowing 00:48 what to do with all that knowledge. 00:51 Yes, wisdom is much harder. 00:53 I once heard a funny saying that said, 00:55 "Knowledge is knowing that tomatoes are a fruit 00:58 but wisdom is knowing not to put them in a fruit salad. 01:02 Tomatoes mixed up with bananas and pineapple and blueberries 01:05 doesn't sound very appetizing, does it? 01:09 Have you ever had people tell you two different stories 01:11 and you were smart enough to know 01:13 that both stories couldn't possibly be true. 01:16 But how could you tell which story was true? 01:19 That takes wisdom. 01:20 The kind of wisdom only God has. 01:23 King Solomon wanted that kind of wisdom. 01:25 So he asked God for it and God gave it to him. 01:29 So when two people came to him and they told him stories 01:31 that both of the stories couldn't possibly be true. 01:34 He knew how to figure out 01:36 which person was actually telling the truth. 01:39 Boys and girls, why do you think 01:40 that story is in the Bible? 01:42 I think maybe to let us know 01:44 that we can ask God for wisdom too. 01:46 And when He gives it to us 01:48 let's never forget to tell others where it came from. 01:51 Well right now it's time for? It's time for? 01:55 I'm looking to see if Max is ready. 01:57 Max is not. He is still sleeping. 02:00 It's time for "Nature Time." 02:09 Welcome to "Nature Time." I'm so excited. 02:12 We're here at Binder Park Zoo at Battle Creek, Michigan. 02:15 And we're at the eagle habitat. 02:17 And I am with Chuck, Chuck, 02:18 I wanna know more about eagles. 02:20 I think they are an awesome bird. 02:22 What can you tell me about eagles? 02:24 Well, if you guys have seen them recently 02:26 then a lot of stuff that's been out. 02:28 They are a national bird. 02:31 These guys were endangered not all that long ago. 02:35 So endangered which means? 02:36 Which means there were not very many left 02:39 in the United States period. Wow. 02:42 It was quite low like under 02:44 500 pairs of birds at one point. 02:47 That's not very much, kids, 02:48 under 500 birds in all the United States. 02:51 Now in the last few years, 02:53 they have been taken off the endangered species list 02:56 because they have made such a great comeback. 02:58 That's great. 02:59 And we're fortunate enough to have the two behind me 03:01 here on exhibit for people to see. 03:04 That is-- Now eagle, I've always liked eagles, 03:07 Chuck, because they've got, they soar. 03:10 I love the white head and white tail 03:12 but how big are the wings of eagles? 03:15 The eagles, interesting enough, 03:17 they have wingspan that will reach from 6 to 8 feet long. 03:20 Man, that is awesome. 03:24 And I know that there is a eagle you've got made 03:28 as we come into this habitat here. 03:30 And I have Bryce and Brady, 03:32 they've got their hands outstretched. 03:34 And even as wide as that is 03:36 the eagles are bigger than that on their wings. 03:39 Can you imagine, kids? 03:40 That is really neat graphic that we made here years ago 03:44 to show people just how big the wingspan of an eagle is. 03:48 So that when even adult stand up to it 03:50 and their arms don't reach 03:52 the whole length of that wingspan. 03:53 So they're really getting the fact 03:55 as to just how big they really are. 03:56 they are huge and now 03:58 the one thing I love about eagles, kids, 04:00 is they got a white head, 04:02 the bald eagle and a white tail. 04:04 Does that happen at birth or when? 04:06 They are born, kind of like an off-white color. Okay. 04:10 They turn all brown and then usually 04:13 around four years of age that's when they start 04:15 getting the white head and the white tail. 04:17 So they don't have it for almost four years or so? 04:19 Right, no, until they become mature eagles 04:22 that's when they get the white heads 04:23 and the white tails. 04:25 And then-- That's, we get, we get different things 04:27 as we grow up too. 04:28 So it works with the eagles also, huh? 04:30 Yeah, they will live to be 04:33 usually around 30 years old in the wild. 04:37 In captivity there are eagles that have gone close to 50. 04:41 Wow, kids, 50 years. That's a long time for a bird. 04:45 Well, Chuck, something else 04:47 how many eggs does eagles have? 04:50 Eagles generally will lay two to four eggs 04:53 of those usually 75 percent of them will hatch. 04:58 Which means that's a pretty good percentage? 05:01 It's great now. Yeah. 05:02 That it didn't used to be like that. 05:04 But now it is. 05:05 And you know when I see eagles, 05:08 I didn't know about you, kids, 05:09 when I see eagles with their nest. 05:10 They're always up on a high mountain or a cliff 05:12 or in a big tree but do they always nest in those? 05:16 And they always have to be on a high tree 05:18 or on a big cliff or what? 05:20 In areas, they will look for the large pine trees 05:23 to build nest in. 05:24 If they're not available 05:26 they will actually nest on the ground. 05:28 They will nest actually on the ground? 05:29 Yep, they will build nest straight on the ground. 05:31 The nest in the trees can be up to a 1,000 pounds. 05:35 They are actually huge. A 1,000 pounds? 05:37 Listen, kids, just like seven of me. 05:39 That's a huge nest. That's amazing-- 05:41 It's a big tree to support that. 05:43 Well, you know, kids, I fly an aeroplane 05:46 but that aeroplane isn't anything how an eagle flies. 05:50 And yet in the Bible in Isaiah Chapter 40 verse 31 it says, 05:54 "Mount up with wings like eagles." 05:56 Which means that an eagle is really something 05:59 it's a graceful bird. 06:01 Nature's got second book. Get out there and take a look. 06:19 God made birds to fill the skies 06:24 God made frogs to eat the flies 06:28 God made owls to just look wise 06:32 But we were made to love the Lord 06:36 Yes, we were made to love the Lord 06:41 Love the Lord love the Lord 06:45 We were made to love the Lord 06:50 That's what we were made for 06:54 God made foxes to be real tricky 06:58 God made worms to be real sticky 07:02 God made spiders to just be yicky 07:07 But we were made to love the Lord 07:11 Yes, we were made to love the Lord 07:15 Love the Lord love the Lord 07:19 We were made to love the Lord 07:24 That's what we were made for 07:28 That's what we were made for 07:44 Welcome to "Learning Time." 07:46 Glad you join us today. 07:47 I've lots of things on the table. 07:49 Looks like we're gonna cook some stuff up, right? Yes. 07:53 Well, today we're gonna show you some interesting things 07:55 that you can do at home. 07:56 And we got three helpers that are going to help us today. 07:59 And Britney Britney, I understand 08:01 you have a favorite sport? Yes, gymnastics. 08:03 Gymnastics and what do you like to do best? 08:06 I like to watch the older kids do their cool stuff. 08:09 Oh, yeah, and the flips and all that kind of stuff. 08:12 Then we have Darnell. 08:13 Now, Darnell, what do you like to do for Jesus? 08:15 I used to play piano 08:16 and I have been playing for five years now. 08:18 Oh, that's wonderful. And we have Jeffrey over here. 08:21 Jeffrey, I hear you have an unusual pet? 08:23 Yeah, I have Iguana 08:26 and I've been training it and I tame too. 08:32 Cool and we got a pet here today, don't we? 08:34 Yeah. Yeah. 08:35 Maxwell is our pet 08:36 and we like to take good care of him. 08:38 Hey, let's get all three of our helpers up here. 08:41 Get behind my table. 08:42 We're gonna be looking at some interesting things today. 08:44 And remember you can do these at home 08:46 and it's really a lot of fun. 08:47 Do get permission, otherwise you're gonna get 08:49 kicked out of the kitchen, all right? 08:50 Okay, so here I have a couple of containers. 08:53 Now this is a large container 08:55 and this is a small container, right? Yeah. 08:57 So which one has the most amount of volume? 08:59 That's volume is the amount of stuff something can hold. 09:02 This one right here, 09:03 it's a lot larger, isn't it guys? Yeah. 09:06 This is a lot smaller. 09:07 Well, today we're gonna be 09:08 doing something all about volume. 09:10 Because volume can really play tricks in our mind sometimes. 09:13 And I have this piece of material right here. 09:15 This is a piece of plastic, right? Yeah. 09:17 Now if I take this plastic and I can roll it up like this 09:20 and tape it and that's what we have right here. 09:22 We have a very tall cylinder, 09:24 but it's not big around, but it's tall, 09:26 and then I've taken the same piece of plastic 09:29 and I've rolled it up and I've taped it just like that 09:32 so it becomes fat and it's shorter. 09:34 See this one is fat and it's shorter. 09:36 So the question is, which one will hold more macaroni 09:41 or which one will have the most amount of volume? 09:44 What do you think? 09:46 Tell me. That one. 09:50 Well, I am not sure and so let's find out, shall we? 09:52 So let's have--so what we're using right here is, 09:54 we're using somewhat? Macaroni. 09:56 Yeah. I don't really like macaroni. 10:00 Well, you know you don't have to like it, 10:01 don't eat this, okay, 10:02 because some of it's been on the floor. 10:04 So let's go ahead and take our big fat cylinder right here. 10:07 You can hold, well, let's just keep that here. 10:10 And let's go ahead and I'm gonna pour this in 10:11 and you guys can make a funnel with your hands little bit. 10:14 So we don't get too much on the floor 10:15 otherwise Maxwell will eat it all up. 10:18 Won't he? So let's pour it in here. 10:20 We're gonna fill it up right to the brim. 10:22 Here we go and then we're gonna get this thing 10:23 all the way up to the top. 10:24 Let me know, when you think it's full. 10:26 Is it full? Full. 10:27 Okay, it's full. 10:28 All right, now what we're gonna do 10:29 since these cylinders are open at both ends 10:31 they don't have any bottom or top. 10:33 We're gonna take and we're gonna pour 10:35 all of these into there. 10:36 So I tell you what, let's do it. 10:38 Why don't you make another funnel with your hands? 10:40 And I'm gonna pour this in. Are you ready, guys? Yeah. 10:42 Okay, we're gonna see if we can, 10:44 you know, I don't wanna spill too much of this here. 10:47 So we're gonna fill this up. 10:48 Let's fill this cup up just like that. 10:49 Okay it's full. Okay, set the cup up here. 10:51 We're gonna try another cup here. 10:53 And so we're gonna get another cup full, okay. 10:55 Help me with our funnel. Thank you very much, cool. 10:58 We're gonna fill this one up. 11:00 Well, just like that, all right. 11:02 And here is our third one. 11:03 Wow, we've got two full cups 11:05 and we've got some for our third cup. 11:09 That's how much this one holds. 11:11 One and what, two and what, just a little bit. 11:14 Hey, let's try our little small cylinder. 11:16 Small round, but it's a very, very tall. 11:18 Okay, are you ready? Yeah. 11:19 Okay, help us with our funnel. 11:21 Let's fill this thing up. Here we go. 11:24 Wow, we're going all over the floor, that's okay. 11:26 Maxwell will eat all that up for us maybe. 11:29 All right, let me know when we're full. 11:31 Okay, we're full, let's find out. 11:33 What do we have now? 11:35 All right, we're gonna pour this one right into here. 11:37 So here help me with that funnel again. 11:39 We have a human funnel. 11:40 Okay, set it on the ground now or in the floor, here we go. 11:43 We're gonna put it right here. We're gonna fill this one up. 11:47 Okay, let me know when we are full. Full. 11:49 Okay, we're full and then we got another one right here. 11:52 All right, now let's put it over here 11:53 so we don't get it mixed up. 11:55 All right, here we go, make that funnel again. 11:57 We're gonna put this, wow, just like that. 12:00 Hey, let's check it out. Let's answer our question. 12:03 Which one of these, the big fat one but short 12:07 or the tall one, which one had more volume? 12:11 The fat one. The fat one. 12:13 Because it filled up how many? 12:15 One, two and about a quarter. And this one only held two. 12:19 You know, that's interesting, 12:21 because things aren't what they seem sometimes. 12:23 What you and I see isn't necessarily true or real. 12:27 And sometimes we, you know, we judge people 12:29 by what we think, we see. 12:31 We should never do that 12:32 because we can't judge people by what we see. 12:35 Sometimes what we see can fool us 12:37 and I don't wanna be fooled by what we see. 12:39 Do you wanna be fooled? No. 12:41 No, Jesus wouldn't want us to do that. 12:43 Remember when we learn more about science, 12:45 we learn more about our creator, God. 13:01 Your majesty, your top adviser 13:03 request permission to speak to you. 13:05 So granted. You may enter. 13:11 Long live, King Solomon. Rise, top adviser. 13:16 Thank you my Lord. 13:18 My Lord, I wish to tell you that 13:21 I think it's a very wise choice 13:24 that you have chosen 13:25 Benaiah to be over the entire army. 13:29 Benaiah has been very faithful to me my top adviser. 13:33 But as far as my wisdom, you should know I certainly 13:38 could not have come with that on my own. 13:42 My king, whatever do you mean? 13:45 The Lord God, top adviser. 13:47 For God came to me in a dream and said, 13:50 "Ask what shall I give you?" 13:53 And I said to Him, "I am but a child, 13:56 knowing not whether to come in or go out." 13:59 Therefore I asked our God for wisdom 14:03 so that I might correctly judge his people. 14:08 Therefore God has indeed honored his promise to me. 14:14 I see, my king. Get away from me. 14:16 Give me back my baby, my baby. Stop. 14:19 Your Highness, I tried to stop them. 14:21 They pushed by me, I couldn't stop them. 14:24 Your majesty, this is my child. 14:27 She is trying to take it from me-- 14:28 She is lying, she is lying, this is my baby-- 14:30 Oh, be quiet. Give me back my baby. 14:31 Silence, take the baby. 14:44 Speak, well, your majesty, 14:47 this woman and I live in the same house. 14:50 Not too long ago I had a son. 14:52 Three days later she had a son. 14:54 And one night while she was sleeping 14:56 she rolled over her baby and killed him-- 14:58 Don't believe her, she is lying. 14:59 That is my child. 15:00 Anyway, then in the middle of the night 15:03 while I was sleeping she took her dead son 15:06 and replaced it with my baby child. 15:08 You are lying, this is my baby. 15:09 You are lying. Enough. 15:12 Guard, bring me a sword. King. 15:19 I want you to cut this baby in half-- 15:21 No, no, no, don't cut my baby. 15:23 Give half to one woman 15:25 and the other half to the other woman. 15:27 Give him to her, that's not my baby. 15:29 Don't we each get a part of the child? 15:31 No, please give him to her, don't cut my child. 15:34 This is the true mother of the child. 15:38 Return the living baby to her. 15:40 That's not fair. Your majesty that's not fair. 15:44 Woman, you will leave my presence and my throne room 15:48 while you still have a life immediately now, now. No. 15:54 Oh, my precious baby. Oh, thank you, your majesty, 16:01 thank you so much, thank you so much. 16:04 May the God of Israel go with you my child-- 16:06 Praise God, who gave you the wisdom. 16:08 God bless you my child. 16:10 Thank you so much, oh my, baby. 16:16 My king, oh, my king, I can see now 16:21 that the God of heaven has truly blessed you with wisdom. 16:44 I believe for every drop of rain that falls 16:50 A flower grows I believe that somewhere 16:58 In the darkest night a candle glows 17:06 I believe for everyone Who goes astray 17:13 Someone will come to show the way 17:21 I believe oh, I believe I believe above a storm 17:32 The smallest prayer will still be heard 17:40 I believe that someone in that great somewhere 17:46 Hears every word 17:51 Every time I hear a newborn baby cry 17:58 Or touch a leaf or see the sky 18:05 Then I know why I believe 18:14 Every time I hear a newborn baby cry 18:20 Or touch a leaf Or see the sky 18:27 Then I know why I believe 18:35 Then I know why I believe 18:57 Hi, boys and girls, 18:58 it's time for Miss Brenda's "Book of the Day." 19:01 And today's book is called "God's Ten Promises." 19:05 And it's a book all about helping children 19:07 understand God's Ten Commandments. 19:10 It's written by Kimberly Tagert-Paul. 19:12 You will want to read this book "God's Ten Promises." 19:17 Well, I'm exited today, boys and girls, 19:18 I have a wonderful guest I'd like to introduce you to, 19:21 his name is Isaiah.

Pretty warm. 19:35 Tell me, what do you do to share Jesus? 19:38 What I do to share Jesus is I do monologues 19:40 and I take the Bible characters from the Bible 19:43 and I take my monologues that I do 19:45 because I'm a professional actor and I mix them together. 19:49 So I tell the Bible stories in first person. 19:51 In first person? 19:53 Now you're saying you're professional actor, 19:54 where have you acted? 19:55 Well, I've gone to California and I've done feature films. 19:59 I've done independent films. 20:01 I've done short films for schools in UCF. 20:05 So can I ask you to come 20:06 and do Bible stories with us? Of course. 20:08 All right, then I'm gonna book you for next year. 20:12 Okay, that's fabulous. 20:13 Wonderful, so now these monologues that you do, 20:16 they're really basically to make the Bible story 20:19 come to live, right? Of course. 20:20 Do you have a short one you can do for me right now? 20:22 I do actually. Okay, let's hear it. 20:25 This is entitled "The Birth of Jesus." 20:27 And it's about God giving Mary the son she always wanted. 20:34 Awesome, Yes, of course, okay. 20:38 Mary, Mary you are chosen by God 20:40 to give birth to our savior 20:42 and such a willing so were you. 20:45 Joseph, Joseph, why couldn't you believe? 20:49 Only when an angel appeared before you did you believe? 20:52 And dear Mary, Mary, Mary, 20:56 what a privilege God has given you 20:57 to care for and raise the King of Kings? 21:02 Joseph and Mary, oh, what a journey before you? 21:05 But your faith helps you endure 21:08 what God had planned for you. 21:10 Mary, Mary, how great with the child you must have been? 21:14 Finding no woman therein. 21:16 What was it like in the manger? 21:19 Mary, Mary, how precious is your first born son? 21:24 Lying in the manger wrapped in swaddling clothes. 21:27 Joseph and Mary, 21:29 how melodious is the heavenly host of angels? 21:32 Praising God and saying, glory to God in the highest. 21:37 Peace on earth. Goodwill toward man. 21:40 The savior of the world is born. 21:43 Angels announce His birth.

Tell me that was incredible. 22:06 Tell me where do you go and did you do this 22:09 in churches or schools 22:11 or where do you get your contacts? 22:13 Well, this was actually my first monologue I ever did 22:17 and I did it for a Christmas program at my church. 22:20 And people were just so blessed by it 22:22 and they came up and told me that you are very good. 22:25 I enjoyed listening to you. 22:27 And it makes me feel very good because if only one person 22:32 got to know Jesus that day it was all worth it. 22:35 And I glorify God-- Yes. 22:37 For giving me this talent and giving me the opportunity 22:40 that He has given me to go and say these monologues. 22:43 Because while I was in California, 22:46 my aunt with me, my aunt went with me 22:50 and she contacted different churches 22:52 and they wanted me to do my monologues. 22:54 And when I did them I mean it was just, 22:56 it felt so good and it was really in the moment 22:59 and it was one of those moments where you say, 23:01 thank you, Jesus for being with me 23:03 through this time. Amen. 23:05 Because-- Always give God the glory. 23:06 Exactly because without Him none of this is possible. 23:09 Amen, that's right. 23:11 You know, boys and girls, 23:12 if you wanted to get in touch with Isaiah, 23:15 all you have to do is write to me 23:17 and send your letters to Miss Brenda at 3ABN 23:21 or you can email me at kidstime@3abn.org 23:25 and I will be happy to get the messages to him. 23:28 And I'm sure that you would love an opportunity 23:30 to witness it at their church too, wouldn't you? 23:33 Definitely, of course. 23:34 Awesome and I'm counting, I need you for Bible stories. 23:37 Well, listen, I'd like to read a couple of letters. 23:40 And I have a picture here. 23:41 Would you like to help me, Isaiah, 23:42 hold that picture up, that cute little girl there? 23:44 This letter is from Vernal, Utah 23:47 and lets see what this letter has to say, 23:49 it says, "Dear Miss Brenda, my name is Catlin 23:53 and I'm five-years-old and I want to join Kids' Club. 23:56 Please send me the Bible lessons." 23:57 It said, "Thank you and I look forward to your response.
