It's almost time
for "Kids' Time."
00:00:01.40\00:00:03.01
We're gonna be late.
00:00:03.04\00:00:04.41
It's time to share,
there's a world out there
00:00:04.44\00:00:08.33
Looking for a friend like Jesus
00:00:08.36\00:00:11.84
It's time to share,
there's a world out there
00:00:11.87\00:00:16.28
Let's tell them
that He loves us so

Hi, boys and girls.
00:00:31.43\00:00:32.80
Do you know what it
means to make an investment?
00:00:32.83\00:00:35.63
Let me tell you a story.
00:00:35.66\00:00:37.18
One Sabbath morning my friend
Mark went to Sabbath school
00:00:37.21\00:00:40.10
and the teacher gave
each of the children $5
00:00:40.13\00:00:42.89
and told them to invest
the money and make it grow
00:00:42.92\00:00:45.83
and then bring all the money
as an offering for the Lord.
00:00:45.86\00:00:49.01
Now Mark decided he
would invest in popcorn.
00:00:49.04\00:00:52.03
He bought a few kernels
of corn and he popped them,
00:00:52.06\00:00:54.33
then sold the popcorn
and he used the extra money
00:00:54.36\00:00:56.92
he made to buy even
more kernels of corn.
00:00:56.95\00:00:59.42
And he kept doing
this until he had made $50.
00:00:59.45\00:01:03.11
And he'd only started with $5.
00:01:03.14\00:01:05.18
Now that's what it
means to make an investment.
00:01:05.21\00:01:08.01
But it doesn't
have to be with money.
00:01:08.04\00:01:09.92
You can invest
anything and make it grow.
00:01:09.95\00:01:12.65
Think of all the
blessings God has given you.
00:01:12.68\00:01:15.85
Our Bible story
today is about three men
00:01:15.88\00:01:18.15
who received a gift
and were told to invest it.
00:01:18.18\00:01:21.60
Not all of them
were wise like Mark.
00:01:21.63\00:01:23.48
You'll find out what happened
00:01:23.51\00:01:25.14
but first it's
time for Nature Time.
00:01:25.17\00:01:28.85
Hi, boys and girls.
Welcome to Nature Time.
00:01:34.90\00:01:37.40
What an exciting time I'm having
00:01:37.43\00:01:39.33
and I'm with a world
renowned marine biologist,
00:01:39.36\00:01:42.18
Dr. Guy Harvey.
00:01:42.21\00:01:43.58
And, Doctor, it is so nice
00:01:43.61\00:01:45.01
that you are
just taking your time
00:01:45.04\00:01:46.41
to share with
"Kids' Time" today.
00:01:46.44\00:01:48.34
We've got this stingray.
00:01:48.37\00:01:49.74
I want to know
everything I can about it.
00:01:49.77\00:01:52.37
It's neat.
00:01:52.40\00:01:53.77
Could you--this is
neat as you can see it.
00:01:53.80\00:01:56.24
Ranger Dwight, this is one
of my favorite places to be.
00:01:56.27\00:01:58.51
We are at the
Stingray Sandbar here
00:01:58.54\00:02:00.02
in North Sound, Grand Cayman.
00:02:00.05\00:02:01.83
This is where the
stingrays hangout.
00:02:01.86\00:02:03.36
They have been here for years.
00:02:03.39\00:02:04.89
People have been feeding them.
00:02:04.92\00:02:06.52
People have been coming here
00:02:06.55\00:02:07.92
and swimming
with them like this.
00:02:07.95\00:02:09.63
And they are here
every single day of the year.
00:02:09.66\00:02:12.77
But yet we're not in
a zoo. Absolutely not.
00:02:12.80\00:02:15.02
This is in the wild and
these aren't tame really.
00:02:15.05\00:02:17.19
No, these are wild animals.
00:02:17.22\00:02:18.59
We are not in a fence enclosure.
00:02:18.62\00:02:19.99
They come here voluntarily.
00:02:20.02\00:02:22.04
Because they probably
like food. There you go.
00:02:22.07\00:02:24.65
It's a unique situation
with the shallow water,
00:02:24.68\00:02:27.22
the sandy bottom
and tons of rays.
00:02:27.25\00:02:29.23
And tons of rays and
they get plenty of food
00:02:29.26\00:02:31.56
because other
people come to feed them.
00:02:31.59\00:02:33.32
Every day the
tourists come here.
00:02:33.35\00:02:34.81
About a million
people a year come here.
00:02:34.84\00:02:36.21
A million people. Wow,
kids, that's a lot of people.
00:02:36.24\00:02:38.87
Now they have to
take a special food.
00:02:38.90\00:02:41.73
It doesn't hurt for
the people to feed them?
00:02:41.76\00:02:43.71
Well, the guys bring fish
or they bring squid mostly.
00:02:43.74\00:02:46.30
Okay. That's what the
rays normally feed on.
00:02:46.33\00:02:47.79
But in the wild
they feed on baby clams,
00:02:47.82\00:02:50.11
squid, fish, mollusks like
00:02:50.14\00:02:52.91
little clams
and stuff like that.
00:02:52.94\00:02:55.10
They do that by--they dig up
these buried items in the sand.
00:02:55.13\00:02:58.52
They sense it under the sand
00:02:58.55\00:02:59.92
using their ultrasonic
sensors and they excavate.
00:02:59.95\00:03:02.06
They blow away the sand,
00:03:02.09\00:03:03.46
expose the food
item and jump on it.
00:03:03.49\00:03:05.27
And you can feel how
powerful their jaws are.
00:03:05.30\00:03:07.35
Oh, they are powerful.
00:03:07.38\00:03:08.75
And I hear them,
how they are sucking.
00:03:08.78\00:03:10.70
Absolutely, and one thing
00:03:10.73\00:03:13.10
you want to be afraid
of out here is the mouth.
00:03:13.13\00:03:15.00
It's the mouth. If
they do bite, yeah.
00:03:15.03\00:03:16.65
Wow. This is so awesome.
00:03:16.68\00:03:19.72
Isn't this awesome, kids?
Now how long do these live?
00:03:19.75\00:03:23.57
These are very
long lived animals.
00:03:23.60\00:03:25.02
They may live 40
to 50 to 60 years.
00:03:25.05\00:03:27.68
Some of the older rays
here are at least 60 years old
00:03:27.71\00:03:30.67
according to the old timers.
00:03:30.70\00:03:32.54
And because they've tagged
them or something they know?
00:03:32.57\00:03:35.36
Exactly, and the same animals
have been coming for decades,
00:03:35.39\00:03:38.66
not years but decades.
00:03:38.69\00:03:40.08
And so you could
tell-- being around here
00:03:40.11\00:03:42.69
you could tell that this
is-- I mean you would know it,
00:03:42.72\00:03:46.25
just like I would know you.
00:03:46.28\00:03:47.65
Yeah. And this is the male.
00:03:47.68\00:03:49.05
He's got these claspers here.
00:03:49.08\00:03:50.45
It's an adult male. Okay.
00:03:50.48\00:03:51.85
Now this doesn't
have a tail because why?
00:03:51.88\00:03:54.04
Well, a shark would
have come and bitten it off.
00:03:54.07\00:03:55.62
Oh, really? Sharks are
the main predators here.
00:03:55.65\00:03:57.36
We've got hammer heads,
tiger sharks and reef sharks.
00:03:57.39\00:03:59.67
They prey on stingrays.
00:03:59.70\00:04:01.43
And look that one there
00:04:01.46\00:04:02.83
has a big bite out
of his fin, right there.
00:04:02.86\00:04:04.65
So he had a close
encounter with the shark. Yeah.
00:04:04.68\00:04:07.66
So you're
telling me that basically
00:04:07.69\00:04:09.61
if it wasn't for sharks these
wouldn't really have a predator
00:04:09.64\00:04:12.13
that will be
against these stingrays.
00:04:12.16\00:04:13.53
Exactly right. Nobody
here kills and eats them.
00:04:13.56\00:04:16.15
There's no use
for them whatsoever
00:04:16.18\00:04:17.57
except from a
tourism point of view.
00:04:17.60\00:04:19.35
And they are bottom feeders,
00:04:19.38\00:04:20.75
so they probably help
keep things cleaned up, too?
00:04:20.78\00:04:22.26
Absolutely. They maintain the
ecological balance of the reef
00:04:22.29\00:04:25.33
and the shallow reef areas.
00:04:25.36\00:04:26.73
And they are after
all flatten sharks.
00:04:26.76\00:04:28.73
They're predators themselves.
00:04:28.76\00:04:30.13
You can see from the
fins that are extended. Yes.
00:04:30.16\00:04:32.25
They are used to a
life on the bottom.
00:04:32.28\00:04:33.98
They don't have the big
long tail and the shark tail.
00:04:34.01\00:04:37.22
They don't need that.
00:04:37.25\00:04:38.62
So they fly along in
very, very shallow water
00:04:38.65\00:04:40.49
using their wings as you
can see to propel them along.
00:04:40.52\00:04:43.89
Now how fast--
has it ever been--
00:04:43.92\00:04:45.94
how fast do
they go? Do you know?
00:04:45.97\00:04:47.34
They can move pretty quick.
00:04:47.37\00:04:48.74
I'd say they
move 10-15 knots. Wow.
00:04:48.77\00:04:50.25
And, you know,
that's all they got to--
00:04:50.28\00:04:52.03
hat's fast, kids.
00:04:52.06\00:04:53.43
In their defense.
00:04:53.46\00:04:54.83
Yes. Now another question.
00:04:54.86\00:04:56.39
How deep do they go?
00:04:56.42\00:04:57.79
You say mainly they
are in shallow water.
00:04:57.82\00:04:59.28
They are mostly in shallow water
00:04:59.31\00:05:00.68
but I've seen them
out on the deep reef and,
00:05:00.71\00:05:02.08
you know, they are
out there, prizing,
00:05:02.11\00:05:03.92
scavenging the bottom. Okay.
00:05:03.95\00:05:05.94
But they don't
live in very deep water.
00:05:05.97\00:05:07.76
Isn't that exciting, kids?
00:05:07.79\00:05:09.80
They are just as home here
in the shallows as they are.
00:05:09.83\00:05:14.23
Well, Dr. Guy, thanks so much
00:05:14.26\00:05:15.80
for taking your
time to be with us.
00:05:15.83\00:05:17.63
Kids, this is great, isn't it?
00:05:17.66\00:05:20.14
But never forget,
nature's got second book,
00:05:20.17\00:05:22.82
get out there and take a look.
00:05:22.85\00:05:24.30
Let's go find some more.
00:05:24.33\00:05:25.70
Let's go catch
another one. Okay, let's go.
00:05:25.73\00:05:27.76
It's Learning Time.
00:06:43.73\00:06:46.34
Hey, thanks for
joining us today.
00:06:46.37\00:06:48.54
Looks like we're
gonna have some fun
00:06:48.57\00:06:49.97
with some water, right? Yeah!
00:06:50.00\00:06:52.13
Well, we just might see water
do something kind of special,
00:06:52.16\00:06:55.45
may be you've never seen before.
00:06:55.48\00:06:57.02
We got some helpers who
are gonna help us with this.
00:06:57.05\00:06:59.32
Now, Miles, what's the most
interesting place you've been?
00:06:59.35\00:07:02.60
Jamaica. Jamaica.
00:07:02.63\00:07:04.17
Wow, that's an interesting--
I've never been there.
00:07:04.20\00:07:06.30
That would be fun to
go there, wouldn't it?
00:07:06.33\00:07:08.65
Yeah. Yeah.
00:07:08.68\00:07:10.05
Caleb, what do you--what's
the most interesting thing
00:07:10.08\00:07:12.56
you like to do? Play baseball.
00:07:12.59\00:07:14.72
Play baseball.
00:07:14.75\00:07:16.12
That sounds like a lot
of fun, doesn't it? Yeah.
00:07:16.15\00:07:18.20
And we have Andy way over there.
00:07:18.23\00:07:19.60
Now, Andy, what do
you like to read about?
00:07:19.63\00:07:22.82
History. History.
00:07:22.85\00:07:24.22
You know, history is a
lot of fun to read, isn't it?
00:07:24.25\00:07:26.38
You can learn a
lot by reading history.
00:07:26.41\00:07:28.36
Hey, let's get
our helpers over here
00:07:28.39\00:07:30.28
and we're gonna
put some, what on?
00:07:30.31\00:07:32.84
Safety glasses.
Safety glasses on.
00:07:32.87\00:07:34.99
We're gonna be very safe today.
00:07:35.02\00:07:36.59
Now this is score. Here you go.
00:07:36.62\00:07:37.99
You can put those on.
00:07:38.02\00:07:39.39
Now today we have some water.
00:07:39.42\00:07:40.79
Now there's water right in
here in this jug right here.
00:07:40.82\00:07:43.38
But I am gonna
ask you a question.
00:07:43.41\00:07:44.78
Have you ever seen
water go uphill? No.
00:07:44.81\00:07:47.76
Because it usually
goes where? Downhill.
00:07:47.79\00:07:50.35
Usually goes downhill.
00:07:50.38\00:07:52.11
Well, today we're gonna
try to get water to go uphill.
00:07:52.14\00:07:54.77
Will that be fun to see?
00:07:54.80\00:07:56.17
Yes. Okay.
00:07:56.20\00:07:57.57
Because we're gonna use a hose,
00:07:57.60\00:07:59.14
now you can't do
this at home without help
00:07:59.17\00:08:02.10
because you might get
all tangled up in your hose.
00:08:02.13\00:08:05.48
Actually, we're
gonna use the hose
00:08:05.51\00:08:07.66
and it's what we call a siphon.
00:08:07.69\00:08:09.53
We can get water
to come up a hill
00:08:09.56\00:08:12.62
if we fill a hose up with water.
00:08:12.65\00:08:15.20
So what I have in here is water.
00:08:15.23\00:08:17.09
I'm gonna put this
hose right in here.
00:08:17.12\00:08:18.88
Okay, now, Caleb, what
I want you to do is this.
00:08:18.91\00:08:21.45
I want you to hold
that hose up just like that.
00:08:21.48\00:08:24.09
Right, there you go.
00:08:24.12\00:08:25.49
And you know what
I'm gonna do? What?
00:08:25.52\00:08:26.89
I put fresh water in here
00:08:26.92\00:08:28.29
and I am going to
use this like a straw.
00:08:28.32\00:08:30.67
Is this a big straw? Yes.
00:08:30.70\00:08:32.79
It's a really big straw.
00:08:32.82\00:08:34.19
And I'm going to take this
00:08:34.22\00:08:35.72
and I'm going to
kind of sip up the water.
00:08:35.75\00:08:38.80
And as soon as it comes up here
00:08:38.83\00:08:40.54
I'm gonna let it go, I'm
gonna put it right in there.
00:08:40.57\00:08:42.57
But you know what,
it might make a mess,
00:08:42.60\00:08:44.26
so what--we ought to
use what? Paper towels.
00:08:44.29\00:08:47.54
Probably we have to use some
paper towels underneath here.
00:08:47.57\00:08:50.55
And if you get wet,
it probably won't hurt.
00:08:50.58\00:08:52.62
Are you ready?
00:08:52.65\00:08:54.02
Yes. Okay.
00:08:54.05\00:08:55.42
And I'm gonna start doing this.
00:08:55.45\00:08:56.82
How about a
countdown? I might need it.
00:08:56.85\00:08:58.22
Three. Three.
00:08:58.25\00:08:59.62
Two. One.
00:08:59.65\00:09:01.02
What's happening?
Hold it up, Caleb.
00:09:04.08\00:09:06.06
Is water going up the hill? Yes.
00:09:06.09\00:09:08.49
Is it coming down my hose? Yes.
00:09:08.52\00:09:11.03
You know, look at all the water.
00:09:11.06\00:09:12.43
The water is
going down, down, down
00:09:12.46\00:09:14.51
but the water
level is going down,
00:09:14.54\00:09:16.12
but the water is
going uphill. Uphill.
00:09:16.15\00:09:19.31
Have you ever thought you'd
see water going uphill? No.
00:09:19.34\00:09:23.06
It goes uphill.
00:09:23.09\00:09:24.59
You know, there are some things
00:09:24.62\00:09:26.09
that seem just really
impossible like, you know?
00:09:26.12\00:09:29.64
Have you ever seen anything
that you thought was impossible?
00:09:29.67\00:09:31.94
Yes. Yes.
00:09:31.97\00:09:33.34
But then sometimes in science
00:09:33.37\00:09:35.03
we do things
that look impossible
00:09:35.06\00:09:37.47
or you might think
is absolutely impossible
00:09:37.50\00:09:40.67
but it is possible if we
use the principles of science.
00:09:40.70\00:09:44.49
Isn't that cool? Yes.
00:09:44.52\00:09:46.31
So we can take something like
the water in this jug right here
00:09:46.34\00:09:50.04
and we can make it go uphill
00:09:50.07\00:09:52.30
and then we can
capture it in a container below
00:09:52.33\00:09:55.82
the level of
that original water.
00:09:55.85\00:09:58.42
Now that's what
we call a siphon.
00:09:58.45\00:10:00.73
Siphons are really interesting.
00:10:00.76\00:10:02.99
And we use siphons
sometimes to do just that.
00:10:03.02\00:10:06.36
Transport some liquids
from one place to another place.
00:10:06.39\00:10:10.49
And that is the
principle called siphoning.
00:10:10.52\00:10:13.81
Now, you know, sometimes
things seem impossible.
00:10:13.84\00:10:16.84
Now sometimes we have problems
in our lives that we think,
00:10:16.87\00:10:19.32
"Oh, man, I've
got so many problems
00:10:19.35\00:10:21.61
and I just don't
know how to solve it."
00:10:21.64\00:10:23.91
Well, we had water in this
pitcher right here in this jug.
00:10:23.94\00:10:26.84
We wanted to get it down here
00:10:26.87\00:10:28.63
and without pouring it
from one place to the other
00:10:28.66\00:10:32.53
we could use a hose.
00:10:32.56\00:10:34.40
The hose allowed us
to transfer that water.
00:10:34.43\00:10:37.75
You know when we reach
to the point in our lives
00:10:37.78\00:10:40.50
where things seem impossible,
00:10:40.53\00:10:42.33
'cause sometimes we have
problems that seem so big,
00:10:42.36\00:10:45.03
we don't know
what to do with them.
00:10:45.06\00:10:46.98
I'll bet you, if we
could ask Jesus to help us,
00:10:47.01\00:10:50.94
could He help us
with those problems? Yes.
00:10:50.97\00:10:53.74
He could help us.
Just like this hose.
00:10:53.77\00:10:55.78
This hose helped
us to get off a siphon
00:10:55.81\00:10:59.37
so that we could
drain all the water here.
00:10:59.40\00:11:01.81
Jesus is always ready
to help you and to help me.
00:11:01.84\00:11:05.50
All we have to do is what? Ask.
00:11:05.53\00:11:08.38
Ask Him, that's right.
00:11:08.41\00:11:09.88
You know the Bible says, "Ask,
00:11:09.91\00:11:11.58
and you shall," what?
00:11:11.61\00:11:13.22
Receive. "Receive."
00:11:13.25\00:11:14.94
Sometimes we don't receive
because we don't what? Ask.
00:11:14.97\00:11:18.80
We don't ask.
00:11:18.83\00:11:20.20
So let's ask for help.
00:11:20.23\00:11:21.60
Jesus will always help us.
00:11:21.63\00:11:23.71
And, you know,
that's a neat principle
00:11:23.74\00:11:25.56
in science of siphon.
00:11:25.59\00:11:27.06
And, you know, that was fun.
00:11:27.09\00:11:28.46
Wasn't it fun? Yes.
00:11:28.49\00:11:29.86
You might want to try this
but you might need some help
00:11:29.89\00:11:32.03
because we're dealing with
pitchers of water and tubing,
00:11:32.06\00:11:35.04
but it's really fun to do.
00:11:35.07\00:11:36.68
And when we learn
more about science
00:11:36.71\00:11:39.35
we are learning more
about our Creator God.
00:11:39.38\00:11:44.03
Oh, yes, my servants.
00:11:50.25\00:11:53.00
I am to be away on business
00:11:53.03\00:11:54.49
in a far-away
country for a few days.
00:11:54.52\00:11:57.33
Therefore, I'm
providing each of you
00:11:57.36\00:11:59.21
with a specific
number of talents to be used,
00:11:59.24\00:12:01.52
not for your whimsical
pleasure but for investments,
00:12:01.55\00:12:05.48
for profits, for the
furtherment of the kingdom.
00:12:05.51\00:12:09.79
Servant number one, to you
I'm entrusting five talents.
00:12:09.82\00:12:13.82
Thank you, my lord.
00:12:13.85\00:12:15.22
And to servant
number two, two talents.
00:12:15.25\00:12:18.36
Thank you, master.
00:12:18.39\00:12:19.76
And servant
number three, one talent.
00:12:19.79\00:12:24.28
Invest wisely. One.
00:12:24.31\00:12:27.11
Is there a problem,
00:12:27.14\00:12:28.51
servant number
three with the one talent?
00:12:28.54\00:12:30.62
No, master. Not at all.
00:12:30.65\00:12:32.93
One talent it is. Good.
00:12:32.96\00:12:35.45
Now go.
00:12:35.48\00:12:36.85
Oh, and servants,
00:12:36.88\00:12:38.75
upon my return I
expect a good report.
00:12:38.78\00:12:43.14
Yes, my lord. Thank you.
00:12:43.17\00:12:44.61
Yes, master. One talent.
00:12:44.64\00:12:48.11
What am I supposed
to do with one talent?
00:12:48.14\00:12:50.62
May be five. This is ridiculous.
00:12:50.65\00:12:54.66
I've never been so insulted.
00:12:54.69\00:12:57.06
One talent.
00:13:03.13\00:13:05.12
What am I supposed
to do with one talent?
00:13:05.15\00:13:08.89
Give me five, may be ten,
00:13:08.92\00:13:11.40
I could have done
something with them. One?
00:13:11.43\00:13:15.06
I should just bury this thing.
00:13:15.09\00:13:17.47
Dig it up when he comes back.
00:13:17.50\00:13:19.01
He wants to
invest it in something,
00:13:19.04\00:13:20.68
he can do it himself.
00:13:20.71\00:13:22.80
Now where to put it?
00:13:22.83\00:13:24.88
Where will it be safe?
00:13:24.91\00:13:27.83
Excellent.
00:13:27.86\00:13:30.03
Perfect.
00:13:41.06\00:13:42.43
It should be safe
there until I return.
00:13:42.46\00:13:45.57
One talent.
00:13:45.60\00:13:47.91
Hello, how are you doing today?
00:13:57.50\00:14:00.50
Doing excellent work.
00:14:00.53\00:14:01.92
Good job.
00:14:01.95\00:14:04.96
Great. Now I have
one talent and fleas.
00:14:04.99\00:14:07.96
Eber. Hegar.
00:14:07.99\00:14:09.36
Eber. How are you doing--
00:14:09.39\00:14:10.76
Look at these
baskets, they are incredible.
00:14:10.79\00:14:12.72
Baskets? The
workmanship is fantastic.
00:14:12.75\00:14:15.57
A wonderful
investment for our master.
00:14:15.60\00:14:17.83
Baskets?
00:14:17.86\00:14:19.28
Yes, I've heard about
Hegar's mini baskets. Yes.
00:14:19.31\00:14:22.88
The market is all abuzz
about your mini, mini baskets.
00:14:22.91\00:14:27.61
You shall be very
successful, I'm sure.
00:14:27.64\00:14:31.29
Jayden, my old friend,
00:14:31.32\00:14:33.04
it seems you have
invested your talent in produce.
00:14:33.07\00:14:36.61
Yes, a great investment indeed.
00:14:36.64\00:14:39.03
I'm working very hard
00:14:39.06\00:14:40.43
so that the money I
make goes to our master.
00:14:40.46\00:14:42.44
It's a great investment.
00:14:42.47\00:14:44.34
So both of your
talents in produce?
00:14:44.37\00:14:48.22
Excellent. Good luck with that.
00:14:48.25\00:14:50.43
You will need it.
00:14:50.46\00:14:53.12
What am I going to
do with one talent?
00:14:53.15\00:14:55.87
Hey, hey, the ruler is coming.
00:14:55.90\00:14:58.18
You must come at once. Me?
00:14:58.21\00:15:00.00
The ruler is coming.
You must come at once.
00:15:00.03\00:15:01.92
Why would he return so soon?
00:15:01.95\00:15:04.26
This is unexpected.
00:15:04.29\00:15:05.96
I should not have
buried my talent the way I did.
00:15:05.99\00:15:08.65
I will unearth it at once.
00:15:08.68\00:15:10.73
Master. Welcome.
00:15:16.34\00:15:18.31
It's been a long trip for me.
00:15:18.34\00:15:20.23
Tell me where is
servant number three?
00:15:20.26\00:15:22.70
I saw him in the
market place, master.
00:15:22.73\00:15:24.85
He was attending to some
small business on your behalf.
00:15:24.88\00:15:28.36
He should be here
shortly. No matter.
00:15:28.39\00:15:29.78
Well, servant number one,
I could use some good news.
00:15:29.81\00:15:31.96
What have you to
report about the talent?
00:15:31.99\00:15:33.54
I have taken the five talents
you've given me, my lord,
00:15:33.57\00:15:36.48
and invested them
as best as possible.
00:15:36.51\00:15:39.06
I have 10 here
for you. I hope that--
00:15:39.09\00:15:43.30
Oh, magnificent,
servant number one. Thank you.
00:15:43.33\00:15:46.67
You have thought
well, planned wisely.
00:15:46.70\00:15:50.17
And I will give you
more responsibility,
00:15:50.20\00:15:52.03
plenty more where that came
from in the future. Thank you.
00:15:52.06\00:15:54.09
We'll celebrate.
00:15:54.12\00:15:56.38
Number two, your report.
00:15:56.41\00:15:57.78
Wine please.
00:15:57.81\00:16:00.03
My master, you have
given me two talents
00:16:00.06\00:16:04.04
and as you have taught me,
00:16:04.07\00:16:05.60
I invested wisely
00:16:05.63\00:16:07.27
and turned them
into four talents.
00:16:07.30\00:16:09.92
You have doubled my investment.
00:16:09.95\00:16:12.55
Very good, servant number two.
00:16:12.58\00:16:14.79
Once again,
thinking, wise planning.
00:16:14.82\00:16:17.55
I did my best, my master.
00:16:17.58\00:16:18.95
You've done well with
responsibilities I've given you
00:16:18.98\00:16:21.25
and I will give
you more responsibility
00:16:21.28\00:16:23.99
in the future. Thank you.
00:16:24.02\00:16:26.04
We too will celebrate.
00:16:26.07\00:16:29.77
And, servant number three.
00:16:29.80\00:16:32.14
Master. Please approach.
00:16:32.17\00:16:35.98
Your report of
the talent I gave you?
00:16:36.01\00:16:38.46
My report?
00:16:38.49\00:16:40.16
Well, the good news is
00:16:40.19\00:16:43.51
I did not lose any
of my master's money.
00:16:43.54\00:16:48.54
Yes, yes, I see
that, servant number three.
00:16:48.57\00:16:52.66
Bad news is that instead of
investing in something silly
00:16:52.69\00:16:57.19
like baskets or produce,
00:16:57.22\00:17:01.23
I instead dug a
hole and buried it.
00:17:01.26\00:17:07.21
Servant number three,
00:17:09.69\00:17:12.38
do you think your
master to be a greedy master?
00:17:12.41\00:17:16.29
Not at all, master.
00:17:16.32\00:17:17.69
Well, obviously
you must not know me
00:17:17.72\00:17:20.67
so well to think
that I am as a no-minded
00:17:20.70\00:17:22.94
to want you to invest
only in my own kingdom.
00:17:22.97\00:17:26.79
Not exactly, I--
00:17:26.82\00:17:28.33
Anyone beyond and you
does it not stand your reason
00:17:28.36\00:17:31.74
that I would have you invest
00:17:31.77\00:17:34.50
in the way that I
prescribed? Well--
00:17:34.53\00:17:37.43
For goodness sake,
servant number three,
00:17:37.46\00:17:39.80
could you not have at
least put the talent in a bank
00:17:39.83\00:17:42.33
where it could draw interest.
00:17:42.36\00:17:44.79
I see now that I
can't trust you now, can I?
00:17:44.82\00:17:47.93
The moment that
you see something
00:17:47.96\00:17:49.33
that goes the other way
of what you are thinking
00:17:49.36\00:17:51.36
you chose to go the other way
00:17:51.39\00:17:52.76
for self
preservation, don't you?
00:17:52.79\00:17:54.20
Actually, I was--
00:17:54.23\00:17:55.60
Oh, give me the
talent! Give it to me now!
00:17:55.63\00:17:59.05
I'll give it to someone else
00:17:59.08\00:18:00.45
who has my kingdom and
well being in their mind
00:18:00.48\00:18:03.06
and their good
fortune and their good graces.
00:18:03.09\00:18:05.51
Guard,
00:18:05.54\00:18:08.82
throw this worthless
servant out into the streets.
00:18:08.85\00:18:11.82
No. Master--
00:18:11.85\00:18:13.27
Let him well gnash his
teeth over what he has done.
00:18:13.30\00:18:15.57
I'll invest wisely
next time. It rubs.
00:18:15.60\00:18:19.80
It is to see
that takes my talents
00:18:22.62\00:18:27.02
and uses them for
the goodness of my name.
00:18:27.05\00:18:31.35
You have done well,
my faithful servants.
00:18:31.38\00:18:34.69
Come, let us celebrate.
00:18:34.72\00:18:37.97
If only all my servants
were as faithful as you.
00:18:39.41\00:18:44.08
Do not wait until some
deed of greatness you may do
00:19:01.95\00:19:06.73
Do not wait to
shed your light afar
00:19:06.76\00:19:11.69
To the many duties
ever near you now be true
00:19:11.72\00:19:17.09
Brighten the
corner where you are
00:19:17.12\00:19:21.88
Brighten the
corner where you are
00:19:21.91\00:19:26.56
Brighten the
corner where you are
00:19:26.59\00:19:31.18
Someone far from harbor
you may guide across the bar
00:19:31.21\00:19:36.02
Brighten the
corner where you are.
00:19:36.05\00:19:44.02
Hi, boys and girls.
00:19:50.79\00:19:52.16
It's time for Miss
Brenda's book of the day.
00:19:52.19\00:19:55.37
And today's book is
called "Curse-Proof."
00:19:55.40\00:19:58.59
That's kind of a
strange title, isn't it?
00:19:58.62\00:20:00.86
And it is by
beloved author Eric B. Hare.
00:20:00.89\00:20:04.36
And Miss Brenda grew up
on stories by Eric B. Hare.
00:20:04.39\00:20:07.40
I know you're gonna
love this incredible book
00:20:07.43\00:20:09.92
and it's about a boy in Burma.
00:20:09.95\00:20:12.33
Eric B. Hare actually
was a missionary in Burma
00:20:12.36\00:20:15.49
for many, many years
00:20:15.52\00:20:16.89
and he's written some
incredible mission stories
00:20:16.92\00:20:19.35
and you are not gonna
want to miss this one either.
00:20:19.38\00:20:21.99
Something else you're
not gonna want to miss
00:20:22.02\00:20:23.77
and that is hearing
all your letters today.
00:20:23.80\00:20:26.97
Boys and girls, I'm
gonna read some of your letters
00:20:27.00\00:20:28.91
that come from
all over the world.
00:20:28.94\00:20:30.73
And I absolutely get so excited
00:20:30.76\00:20:33.80
when I get letters from you
telling me how you share Jesus,
00:20:33.83\00:20:36.98
telling me how
much you love Jesus
00:20:37.01\00:20:39.02
and especially how
much you witness for Him
00:20:39.05\00:20:41.71
and all those
witnessing experiences.
00:20:41.74\00:20:44.07
So I want to encourage
you to send me the letters.
00:20:44.10\00:20:46.37
You can send it to
me right here at 3ABN
00:20:46.40\00:20:49.03
and also some of them I
pick to read on the air,
00:20:49.06\00:20:51.90
others go on our website.
00:20:51.93\00:20:53.85
You can go to kidstimeforjesus.
org, kidstimeforjesus.org
00:20:53.88\00:20:59.89
and you can look at
all your letters on there.
00:20:59.92\00:21:03.08
I post them with your pictures
00:21:03.11\00:21:04.57
and it's a
wonderful way to share Jesus
00:21:04.60\00:21:06.39
to all the other boys and girls
00:21:06.42\00:21:07.96
that go look at the website.
00:21:07.99\00:21:09.47
So today let me just
grab some of your letters.
00:21:09.50\00:21:12.29
I'm so excited about what
we have to share over here.
00:21:12.32\00:21:15.68
And this one,
the first one here,
00:21:15.71\00:21:18.20
let's see where this is from.
00:21:18.23\00:21:19.84
And it says it's
from, I believe, Guyana.
00:21:19.87\00:21:23.84
And let's see-- oh,
we've got a nice picture.
00:21:23.87\00:21:26.78
I love it when you
send your pictures,
00:21:26.81\00:21:28.18
'cause then I get to
see what you look like
00:21:28.21\00:21:29.77
and all the boys
and girls get to see
00:21:29.80\00:21:31.24
how what you look like,
who's writing the letter.
00:21:31.27\00:21:33.20
So be sure and
send me your pictures.
00:21:33.23\00:21:35.08
Here's a handsome man
right here. Let's look at this.
00:21:35.11\00:21:37.63
It says, "Dear Miss Brenda,
00:21:37.66\00:21:39.77
I am a boy and
my name is Shakeel."
00:21:39.80\00:21:42.99
It said, "I am in grade 2
and I live in South America."
00:21:43.02\00:21:47.01
It said, "I am 7 years old
00:21:47.04\00:21:49.40
and I'd like to
join Kids' Club please.
00:21:49.43\00:21:51.69
I enclosed a picture of myself.
00:21:51.72\00:21:53.56
From your friend, Shakeel."
00:21:53.59\00:21:55.25
Well, Shakeel, thank
you so much for your letter
00:21:55.28\00:21:57.33
and we'll get those Kids' Club
lessons out to you right away
00:21:57.36\00:22:00.33
and I know you are
going to enjoy them.
00:22:00.36\00:22:02.16
They are absolutely free.
00:22:02.19\00:22:03.56
They don't cost a thing
and when you are all done
00:22:03.59\00:22:06.12
with the lessons Miss
Brenda is going to send you
00:22:06.15\00:22:07.93
a brand new,
beautiful, free Bible.
00:22:07.96\00:22:11.03
Okay, let's see we
have another one over here.
00:22:11.06\00:22:12.80
This one is from Kansas.
00:22:12.83\00:22:14.57
Another handsome boy that
has sent us a picture of himself
00:22:14.60\00:22:19.28
and let's see
what he has to say.
00:22:19.31\00:22:21.74
There he is, right there.
00:22:21.77\00:22:23.14
"Dear Miss Brenda, I like
to watch Kids' Time every day.
00:22:23.17\00:22:26.61
My name is Nathaniel
and I'm 11 years old.
00:22:26.64\00:22:29.63
And I share Jesus
by copying Bible verses
00:22:29.66\00:22:32.72
and I have my mom
print them on the computer
00:22:32.75\00:22:35.42
and I send them to my uncle
in Africa who is a missionary.
00:22:35.45\00:22:39.13
Please send me an
activity book, please.
00:22:39.16\00:22:41.15
My favorite parts of Kids' Time
00:22:41.18\00:22:42.80
are the cooking and
learning time with Ben Roy.
00:22:42.83\00:22:45.64
I'd also like to
join Kids' Club please.
00:22:45.67\00:22:47.82
Thank you very
much, love, Nathaniel."
00:22:47.85\00:22:50.61
Well, thank you, Nathaniel.
00:22:50.64\00:22:52.01
We'll get you signed up
for those Kids' Club lessons
00:22:52.04\00:22:53.95
and how wonderful that you have
an uncle that's a missionary
00:22:53.98\00:22:56.40
and you can help
support your uncle.
00:22:56.43\00:22:58.18
That's a way to share Jesus.
00:22:58.21\00:22:59.58
You are absolutely right
and keep doing that, okay.
00:22:59.61\00:23:03.21
We have another one
here from Westbury, New York.
00:23:03.24\00:23:07.25
And let's see if
there's a picture in here.
00:23:07.28\00:23:09.80
And there is.
00:23:09.83\00:23:11.20
Let's see, right
here there's a picture.
00:23:11.23\00:23:12.88
It says, "Dear Miss Brenda,
00:23:12.91\00:23:14.55
my name is Frangine
and I'm 7 years old.
00:23:14.58\00:23:17.79
I'd like an
activity book please."
00:23:17.82\00:23:19.94
It says, "I
share Jesus by telling
00:23:19.97\00:23:22.06
about Jesus to my
neighborhood friends.
00:23:22.09\00:23:24.28
I love Jesus very much and
I very much love Kids' Time.
00:23:24.31\00:23:29.17
Please give Max a
great big hug for me."
00:23:29.20\00:23:32.16
And it said, "Love, Frangine."
00:23:32.19\00:23:34.48
And look, she
has drawn a picture.
00:23:34.51\00:23:36.48
I got to show your picture
right here that she's drawn.
00:23:36.51\00:23:40.40
Look at that. It says--
00:23:40.43\00:23:41.80
Here she's got a
picture of Miss Brenda
00:23:41.83\00:23:43.72
and she drew a picture
of herself right there.
00:23:43.75\00:23:45.80
Isn't that cute?
00:23:45.83\00:23:47.20
And she says,
"Give Max a big hug."
00:23:47.23\00:23:49.04
Well, Max is sleeping right now
00:23:49.07\00:23:51.00
as you can see
like Max likes to do.
00:23:51.03\00:23:52.86
He's the sleepiest dog ever
00:23:52.89\00:23:55.31
but when he
wakes up I'll make sure
00:23:55.34\00:23:56.98
that Miss Brenda gives him
a little hug for you, okay.
00:23:57.01\00:24:00.32
Let's see over here now.
00:24:00.35\00:24:01.72
We have one from Hadassah.
00:24:01.75\00:24:04.48
And, Hadassah, let's
see where you're from.
00:24:04.51\00:24:06.46
You're from Missouri.
00:24:06.49\00:24:08.30
And I like the nice
big letter from Hadassah.
00:24:08.33\00:24:10.96
Let's see what we've
got going on in here.
00:24:10.99\00:24:13.51
And, oh, and a
beautiful picture.
00:24:13.54\00:24:15.91
Thank you, for sending
your picture, Hadassah.
00:24:15.94\00:24:18.01
It says, "Dear Miss
Brenda, my name is Hadassah.
00:24:18.04\00:24:20.58
And you say it like
this, H-a-d-a-s-s-a-h.
00:24:20.61\00:24:23.73
I am 14 years old
00:24:23.76\00:24:25.42
and I really got
hooked on Kids' Time
00:24:25.45\00:24:27.74
when I came to my
grandma and grandpa's house.
00:24:27.77\00:24:29.89
And I'm glad to say that I
love Jesus, thanks to 3ABN.
00:24:29.92\00:24:34.40
My favorite part is Praise Time
00:24:34.43\00:24:35.95
because I like to
sing and I play a flute.
00:24:35.98\00:24:38.27
I share Jesus by
telling everybody in my class,
00:24:38.30\00:24:40.92
and I go to a public
school, about my faith
00:24:40.95\00:24:43.48
and I tell them
about the Sabbath.
00:24:43.51\00:24:45.28
Pretty soon when
my veggies are ripe
00:24:45.31\00:24:48.06
I will give those
away to my neighbors too.
00:24:48.09\00:24:51.66
And I will use
them to share Jesus.
00:24:51.69\00:24:53.27
I can't wait to get
more lessons from you.
00:24:53.30\00:24:56.19
I'm taking your
Kids' Club lessons
00:24:56.22\00:24:57.87
and they are
really a blessing to me.
00:24:57.90\00:25:00.93
Well, I love the Lord so much
00:25:00.96\00:25:02.59
and I love how
you share Jesus, too.
00:25:02.62\00:25:04.66
Here's my picture.
00:25:04.69\00:25:06.06
I've got to go to worship now.
00:25:06.09\00:25:07.46
Your sister in
Christ, Hadassah."
00:25:07.49\00:25:09.65
And, Hadassah,
thank you for that letter.
00:25:09.68\00:25:11.42
It sounds like you really
witness everywhere you go.
00:25:11.45\00:25:14.14
And, boys and
girls, that's really
00:25:14.17\00:25:15.54
what we all need to be doing.
00:25:15.57\00:25:16.94
There's so many wonderful
ways that we can share Jesus.
00:25:16.97\00:25:20.19
And if you've got a special way
00:25:20.22\00:25:21.59
that we haven't
shared yet on Kids' Time,
00:25:21.62\00:25:23.25
I'd sure like to
hear from you, okay.
00:25:23.28\00:25:25.33
Take time and write me a letter.
00:25:25.36\00:25:27.07
All right, this one
is-- oh, I've got another.
00:25:27.10\00:25:29.81
This is from Drew.
00:25:29.84\00:25:31.91
And let's get
Drew's picture up here.
00:25:31.94\00:25:33.59
It says, "Dear Miss
Brenda, I love Jesus very much
00:25:33.62\00:25:37.35
and I would like to
tell everybody about Him."
00:25:37.38\00:25:40.42
It said, "Could I have a
Kids' Time activity book please?
00:25:40.45\00:25:43.63
Your friend, Drew
and I am from Missouri."
00:25:43.66\00:25:46.91
Well, thank you, Drew.
00:25:46.94\00:25:48.31
Yes, we'll get some Kids'
Club lessons out to you, too.
00:25:48.34\00:25:50.91
I love it, boys and girls,
00:25:50.94\00:25:52.31
that you're signing
up for these lessons.
00:25:52.34\00:25:53.96
Let's see if we
have time for one more
00:25:53.99\00:25:56.70
and it's--let's see right here.
00:25:56.73\00:25:59.97
I almost dropped
that one, didn't I?
00:26:00.00\00:26:02.00
And it says, "Dear Miss Brenda,"
00:26:02.03\00:26:05.84
it says, "Guess what?
00:26:05.87\00:26:07.24
Sixth grade is
easier than I thought.
00:26:07.27\00:26:09.37
Thanks for encouraging
us to do our best for Jesus
00:26:09.40\00:26:14.31
otherwise I would
just be horrible at it."
00:26:14.34\00:26:16.71
It said, "I guess that my
satellite needs to be fixed
00:26:16.74\00:26:19.58
so I can see more of 3ABN.
00:26:19.61\00:26:22.01
I love 'Kids
Time.' Love, Meghan."
00:26:22.04\00:26:25.07
And Meghan, thank
you for your letter.
00:26:25.10\00:26:26.81
Boys and girls, I
wish I had more time
00:26:26.84\00:26:28.61
to read all the
letters in my basket
00:26:28.64\00:26:30.64
but until next time remember,
it's Kids' Time to share Jesus.
00:26:30.67\00:26:35.86
