Cleopas - The Road to Emmaus (A Resurrection Special)
from Sojourner Storycast: Church History for Kids and Families · host Faithstead
In this episode of the Sojourner Storycast, we follow Cleopas and his traveling companion as they walk away from Jerusalem, hearts heavy after the crucifixion of Jesus. Along the dusty road to Emmaus, they wrestle with disappointment and doubt—until a stranger joins their journey. We witness the moment everything changes: Jesus explains the Scriptures to them and then, at supper, takes the bread, gives thanks, and breaks it. In that moment, their eyes are opened, and they recognize the risen Lord. Their journey of sorrow turns into a story of hope, wonder, and joy as they run back to share the incredible news with the other disciples. Cleopas’ story reminds us that when all hope seems lost, God is still present and working. God’s love is stronger than death, and His promises are true. Like Cleopas, we are invited to see, believe, and share the hope that comes from Christ’s resurrection. Communion, or the breaking of bread, becomes a tangible reminder that Jesus’ sacrifice was for us, that He is alive, and that we have a living hope until He returns. Scripture: Genesis 22:1–14; Luke 24:13–35; Luke 22:19–20; 1 Corinthians 15:3–8 This episode is part of the Sojourner Storycast—a storytelling series for kids, teens, and families that weaves history and Scripture together to show how God worked through ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. Perfect for Christian homeschool families, family devotion time, and Bible learning at home.
