  1. What They Found At The Bottom Of The Sea

    Hi Kids, What’s at the bottom of the ocean? Not treasure or a sea monster—but a plastic bag! Even the deepest part of the Mariana Trench isn’t safe from pollution. It’s a bit like our hearts. In Mark 7, Jesus says evil comes from within us. Even in the deepest parts of who we are, there’s mess.…

  2. Shrinky Dinks

    Hey kids, When I grew up in the 90's we would shrink chip packets in the microwave. This made me think of how we sometimes shrink God down in our minds. This episode reminds us not to make God small. Isaiah 40 shows us just how big and glorious God really is—he holds the oceans in his hand! But...

  3. Wheely Bins

    Hi kids, how can your overflowing wheely bins remind you of Jesus this Christmas? Have a listen and find out!

  4. C3PO

    Hi kids. I'm sure you know the golden robot from Star Wars - CP30. But, I bet you didn't know that the actor loves to holiday in my home town and that he's been here dozens of times! Each time he comes no one ever knows he's been because he's not wearing his costume. Have a listen to why...

  5. Fairy Bread

    Hi kids. Do you like fairy bread - that white bread and butter you find at parties covered with sprinkles? Have a listen to hear what Jesus and fairy bread have in common.

  6. Dinner Time

    Hi kids, have you ever eaten so much food you feel like you'd never eat again? Not only has God made our bodies for food, but he also gives us the Bible to get all we need for life with him.

  7. Stuff God Can't Do

    Hi kids, did you know there a bunch of stuff God can't do and it's really good news when we know what they are? Have a listen and find out a few of them.

  8. Big Pigeons

    Hi Kids, do you know there's heaps of big things in Australia and in my city, we have a big pigeon. Turns out that we don't just like big things, we like to be big people, too. Listen to why Jesus came said blessed are the poor in Spirit, for their is the kingdom of heaven.

  9. Old Clothes

    Hi kids, do you ever wear old clothes when playing in the mud? Turns out, getting old clothes isn't so much of a big deal compared to new ones. This is a helpful way to think about sin and God's forgiveness.

  10. When You Don't Want To Go To School

    Hi Kids, have you ever not wanted to go to school? Have a listen and learn how God helps us do hard things and tricky things. After all, there's so much we can't do on our own strength.

  11. Clocks

    Clocks were once the pinnacle of modern technology and were kept in buildings called monasteries. What does a clock have to do with God? If you've got time, have a listen and find out.

  12. Phones

    Do you have a phone? Do you watch people scroll and text and laugh and look at theirs all day? Here's a question: What would happen if we treated the Bible like we do our phones?

  13. Bananas

    Did you know that we share 40% of our DNA with a banana? But, unlike a banana, we can think, create, explore the cosmos are friends and do art. And, we can also get to know the God whose image we have been made in.

  14. Who Are You?

    When you first meet someone, you might say, what’s your name? What school do you go to. How old are you. Do you like Star Wars? But, do you know who God says you are?

  15. Apple Trees

    Have you ever tried to grow a tree from a seed - like an apple? Growing a tree from a seed is a great way to think of our bodies now, the new body that Jesus will give us in the resurrection. A body perfectly able to love and glorify God that feels no more pain or sadness.

  16. Recycling

    Did you know that you can recycle soft drink cans and milk bottles into new things? That’s a little like what Jesus does for us, forgiving and making us new, giving us a new purpose in life to tell others about his love and kindness.

  17. Annoying Sounds

    What's the most annoying sound you can think of? Did you know that if we do things without love that annoying sound is nicer to hear than what you do?. Love is pretty amazing and love is one way that motivated Jesus to die and rise for you.

  18. Gravity

    Did you know that astronauts who come back to earth can forget about gravity? For something so important in keeping us grounded to the earth it seems strange that you can just forget about it. I reckon, if you are like me, you can sometimes forget about God, like the astronauts forget about gravity.

  19. Getting Petrol

    What do getting petrol, grumbling and being thankful all have in common? They are all moments that you can give thanks to God.

  20. New Shoes

    Have you ever felt like you can run after with new shoes, or been wowed at how white and clean they are? New and old shoes can help remind us of how God shows off his glory in Jesus, and that all the other glorious ways he made himself know in the past are a bit like old shoes compared to the new.

  21. Hurry Up!

    Have you ever been told to hurry up, get ready or we will be late? No one's ever had to tell God to hurry or he will be late! For him 1,000 years are like a day. And one day is like 1,000? Have a listen to see why that's really great news.

  22. Space Roses

    Did you know that Potatoes, tomatoes and roses have been grown in outer space? Turns out that space roses smell really good, and remind us of how God’s love for us is deeper, wider, longer and more beautiful than any kind of love we can find on earth.

  23. Cinnamon

    Do you have a favourite smell? We love cinnamon in our family - especially that time we got a packet from overseas. This delightful fragrance reminds me of the foretaste we get now of God’s future kindness and how one day, we will experienced the fullness of God in a New Creation.

  24. 96 Thousand

    96 thousand is a huge number. That’s how many people gathered to hear one of the greatest singers and performers of all time. Did you know that the Bible tells us of a future when we won’t gather around singer, but the saviour? And there won’t just be 96,000 but millions and millions. Are you...

  25. Rubber Ducks

    Have you ever lost something important? NASA has. They lost 90 yellow plastic ducks down a hole in the ice. God is also in the business of finding lost, valuable things. If you’re lost, why not let God find you?

  26. Gingerbread

    Hi Kids, Have you ever made or decorated a gingerbread house? Have you ever broken a gingerbread house? Those beautiful, broken gingerbread homes are the reason Jesus came at Christmas. To fix broken people so that we can build our life on something solid - Jesus and his teaching.

  27. Green Diamonds

    Hi Kids. Did you know that there are lots of coloured diamonds? One of the most amazing and beautiful, yet, slightly dangerous ones, are green diamonds. Just like there's dangerous beauty in nature, God the holy, beautiful, good one is also dangerous if we get too close. Don't worry, that's why...

  28. Stinky Christians

    Hi Kids, Did you know that Christians smell? Not in a, you’ve been working all day or gone for a big run and are sweaty kind of smell. But in a good, nice, pleasant way, that helps people see and know Jesus.

  29. The Cosmos Speaks

    Hi kids, Looking up at the stars at night is magnificent. Did you know that God put all the stars and planets upon there for the joy of it? And each day since he made then, they have been speaking to us of God’s beauty and glory just by existing? Just like the stars, you and me are made to orbit...

  30. What Will You Wear To Heaven?

    Hi kids, Did you know that God is in the fashion industry? Not making shoes or hand bags, but by giving people a new pair of clothes that’s especially designed for heaven with him.

  31. Chasing The Wind

    Hi Kids! Have you ever tried to catch the wind? One of the writers in the Bible reckons that our life is a bit like trying to catch the wind. He reckons that windy things should blow us on, to God, our rock, the place were we find lasting hope.

  32. Use-By Dates

    Hi Kids! Do you know what a best before or use-by date is on food? Did you know there's also a best after date, too? Psalm 16:11 reminds us that the Christian's best life is yet to come - just like the best after date found on our food.

  33. Words

    Hi Kids! Have you ever worn a name badge? Got a song stuck in your head? did you know that the first words ever spoken were by God? God's word to us is Jesus - everything God wants to say to us in a person. Why not get to know this God though his word today?

  34. We Miss Our Onions

    Hi Kids! Sally-Lloyd Jones reminds us that when God's people were rescued from Egypt, all they could think about was the onions they left behind! They had forgotten that God rescued them to fill them not with onions, but the joy of knowing him.

  35. Something Sweet

    Hi Kids! What's the sweetest food you have ever eaten? Did you know that God knows all about sweet things too and he's made something sweet for us - it's his word, the Bible. The longest chapter in the Bible, Psalm 119 is all about the joy and sweetness of knowing God though his word.

  36. Slippery Places

    Hi Kids! Have you ever slid in the mud? That's lots of fun. You know what's not fun? Slipping in life when school, friends or family make us feel blah. David once wrote a song in the Bible about how God helps him be secure when he slips and this can be our hope too.

  37. Newspaper Of Heaven

    Hi Kids! Have you ever come across a book from another country telling you what it's like and the things there? This is like the Bible, it's God's newspaper from his Kingdom, from his perfect, wonderful place, to help make us excited and happy to live as his people and our future with him.

  38. Cars

    Hi Kids! This one is from Sally-Lloyd Jones. She asks, "What happens when you put porridge in a cars petrol tank?" Turns out, it won't work very well! In the same way, Jesus can heal our hearts because he knows them best.

  39. But God

    Hi Kids! This one is from Sally-Lloyd Jones, encouraging us with 2x little, but super important words in the Bible: But God. See how these words are like a fire engine of hope when all hope seems lost.

  40. Dogs That Cry

    Hi Kids! Do you know that dogs can cry tears of joy when their owners come home? Did you also know that God, the Father, feels great joy when we come home to him too?

  41. Chainsaws

    Hi kids! Have you ever tried to cut a cake with a chainsaw? Or use toilet water to wash your dishes? Oh dear!
