Hey Carpool Crew,

Summer's almost done, and a new year is right around the corner. Here's something most kids never realize: they get a say in what kind of friend they're going to be this year. It's not just something that happens to them. It's something they can decide. Today on Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin opens Proverbs 27:17, where iron sharpens iron. The right kind of friend doesn't just hang around, they make each other better. Your kid isn't just looking for good friends this year. They get to be one, the kid who walks over to the one who's left out and says, come sit with us.

This Monday episode hands kids three things to try this week: decide out loud one kind of friend you want to be, whisper a quick prayer to see who needs a friend, and ask the heart question, am I just looking for good friends, or am I willing to be one? About 5 minutes, kid-friendly, with a discussion question to land on together.

Today's One Thing: You get to choose what kind of friend you'll be this school year.

Scripture: Proverbs 27:17 (CSB)

Hey Carpool Crew,

 

Getting passed over stings way more than it should. A kid stands there acting like it's fine, but inside it hurts. Today on Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin opens Psalm 34:18, where the Lord is near the brokenhearted. When a kid's heart cracks, God doesn't back away. He leans in closer, which is the exact opposite of how it feels. Not getting picked by people does not mean a kid isn't wanted by God. People can overlook them. God never does.

 

This Friday episode hands kids three things to try this week: tell God exactly how the hurt feels instead of stuffing it, whisper a quick prayer that God is near, and ask the heart question, do I let one not-picked moment tell me I'm worth less, or do I let God tell me the truth? About 5 minutes, kid-friendly, with a discussion question to land on together.

 

Today's One Thing: God is closest to you when your feelings are hurt.

Hey Carpool Crew,

 

Summer makes friendships go quiet. People travel, they're at camp, families get busy, and the friend a kid saw every day is suddenly gone for a while. That quiet can feel scary, like something's wrong. Today on Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin opens Proverbs 17:17, where a friend loves at all times, which includes the quiet ones. Quiet is not the same as over. A friendship can go silent for a season and still be alive underneath. The real question isn't whether a friend went quiet. It's what kind of friend your kid will be while it's quiet.

 

This Saturday episode hands kids three things to try this week: send one kind message with no pressure, whisper a quick prayer to be a steady friend, and ask the heart question, do I drop people the second things get quiet, or do I love at all times? About 5 minutes, kid-friendly, with a discussion question to land on together.

 

Today's One Thing: A real friend keeps loving even through the quiet stretches.

Hey Carpool Crew,

 

Summer does something funny. When nobody's handing kids a list, it's easy for them to forget who they are and just float through the day. Today on Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin opens Ephesians 2:10, where we are God's workmanship, made on purpose for good works God planned ahead of time. A kid's worth doesn't switch on when a grown-up hands them an assignment. It was baked in all along. The empty day isn't a test of whether they matter. It's a blank page where the real them gets to show up.

 

This Wednesday episode hands kids three things to try this week: do one good thing on an empty day without being told, whisper a quick prayer of thanks for being made on purpose, and ask the heart question, do I only feel like somebody when someone's telling me what to do? About 5 minutes, kid-friendly, with a discussion question to land on together.

 

Today's One Thing: You are God's handiwork, even when no one is telling you what to do.

 

Scripture: Ephesians 2:10 (CSB)

Hey Carpool Crew,

Some days a grumpy mood rolls in like a cloud and parks right over a kid's head, no real reason needed. Today on Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin opens 1 Thessalonians 5:18, where we give thanks in everything, not for everything. Grumpy makes the brain hunt for what's wrong. Thankful makes it hunt for what's right. They can't both run the show. So when a kid names three real thank-yous, the grumpy has to start scooting over.

 

This Tuesday episode hands kids three things to try this week: name three real thank-yous when a grumpy mood parks over you, whisper a quick prayer to see what's good, and ask the heart question, am I letting one bad thing block out all the good things? About 5 minutes, kid-friendly, with a discussion question to land on together.

 

Today's One Thing: Naming three thank-yous can turn a grumpy day around.
