January 8th: ‘Blessed Are the Humble’ – Learning Humility with Jesus | Carpooling with Jesus Podcast

🚗 Carpooling with Jesus is back for another ride! 🎉 Imagine if Jesus joined you on the way to school—what advice would He give? Today, Pastor Justin explores Matthew 5:5 where Jesus says: “Blessed are the humble, for they will inherit the earth.” Humility might sound confusing at first, but it’s a big deal to Jesus. Let’s talk about what it means to be humble, why it’s important, and how we can live with humble hearts every day. 💡 Key Takeaways for Kids and Parents: What does it mean to be humble? It’s not thinking, “I’m the best!” or “It’s all about me!” Humility is about putting others first, being kind, and not showing off. Jesus was humble AND strong—humility doesn’t mean weakness. It means trusting God and living for Him instead of trying to push others down. Practical Ways to Be Humble: Let someone else have a turn first. Help a friend without expecting anything in return. Celebrate quietly when you do something awesome and thank God for your talents. 🌟 Challenge for the Week: Find one way to be humble at school, home, or with friends. Remember—Jesus sees your humble heart and promises amazing blessings when you live this way! 🗣 Car Ride Question: Why do you think Jesus says it’s a blessing to be humble and put others first? 🚗 Carpooling with Jesus is back! 🎉 Picture this: Jesus is joining your ride to school. What would He say when you’re feeling sad? In today’s episode (Day 2), Pastor Justin dives into Matthew 5:4: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” We all feel sad sometimes. Mourning is when we experience deep sadness, like when something hurts our feelings or we lose someone we care about. But here’s the beautiful promise: Jesus says we are blessed because God Himself will comfort us. 💡 Key Takeaways for Kids and Parents: Mourning means feeling deep sadness, and that’s okay—Jesus understands because He felt sadness too. God doesn’t leave us alone when we’re sad. He comforts us with His love and peace. We can: Pray: Tell God how we feel. “God, I’m sad today. Please comfort me.” Lean on others: Talk to parents, teachers, or friends—they’re here to help. Be there for others: When someone feels sad, a kind word, a listening ear, or just sitting with them can share God’s love. 🗣 Car Ride Question: When someone around you is sad, what can you do to help them feel better? 🎧 Listen and Subscribe: 🎙 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ZQq3iq 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3Zt7lvO 📺 YouTube: https://bit.ly/YoutubeCPWJ 🌐 Podbean: https://bit.ly/PodbeanCPWJ 👍 Facebook: https://bit.ly/CPWJFB 📱 Instagram https://bit.ly/InstagramCPWJ ❤️ Parents: If you enjoy this podcast, share it with other families and help turn car rides into faith-filled moments! 🌟 Tune in Tomorrow: We’ll continue learning about the Be Attitudes and what Jesus wants to teach us!
