Hey Carpool Crew!Welcome back to Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible! In today’s episode, we continue the story of Samuel and explore a turning point that changed Israel forever.  As Samuel grows older, the people of Israel make a big request—they want a king. But this wasn’t just about leadership… it revealed something deeper going on in their hearts. In this episode, kids will learn: How Samuel became a trusted prophet across Israel What life was like before Israel had kings What judges were and how they led the nation Why Samuel’s sons created a problem for the people What it really meant when Israel asked for a king Why wanting to be “like everyone else” can lead us in the wrong direction Even after God warned them, the people still chose their own way—and that decision would shape the future of Israel. 📖 Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 8 (CSB) Sometimes what we want isn’t what’s best.God knows what we truly need—even when we don’t. 🚗💨 Thanks for riding along on Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible.Next episode, we’ll meet Saul—the man who looked exactly like the king people wanted… but whose story teaches us that appearances can be deceiving. And remember: God isn’t trying to hold you back—He’s trying to lead you well.   APPLE PODCASTS Apple Channel:⁠ https://apple.co/4gUygJo⁠ Carpooling with Jesus:⁠ https://apple.co/3Zt7lvO⁠ Goodnight Psalms:⁠ https://apple.co/4nPQBJy⁠ Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible:⁠ https://apple.co/42UWrBm⁠ SPOTIFY Subscribe on Spotify:⁠ https://bit.ly/SpotifySubscribe⁠ Spotify Plus (all shows + bonus content):⁠ https://bit.ly/SpotifyPlus⁠ CARPOOLING WITH JESUS COMMUNITY Facebook Group:⁠ https://bit.ly/CPWJFB⁠ YouTube Channel:⁠ https://bit.ly/YoutubeCPWJ⁠ Instagram:⁠ https://bit.ly/carpooling-insta⁠ GET INVOLVED Request Free Stickers:⁠ https://bit.ly/CarpoolingStickers⁠ Book a Shout Out:⁠ https://bit.ly/booktheshoutout⁠ Submit a Question from the Backseat:⁠ https://bit.ly/4bgCQir⁠ Get Carpooling Unpacked Newsletter: ⁠https://bit.ly/Carpool-Unpacked⁠ Christian kids podcast, Bible stories for kids, kids devotional podcast, Jesus podcast for children, short Christian podcast for kids, podcast for kids in the car, faith-based podcast for children, daily Bible podcast for kids, unforgiving servant explained for kids, Bible parables for children, teaching kids about forgiveness, grace of God for kids, Christian parenting resources.
