Covenant Kids

The episode focuses on Joseph’s story in Genesis 42–50, discussing forgiveness, how God can turn bad things into good, and why Joseph chose not to take revenge on his brothers. Twelve year old Grayson and the host talk about forgiving siblings and friends, compare Joseph’s life to Jesus Christ’s, and share a “Pocket Full of Rocks” story about how holding onto anger weighs us down. Grayson describes receiving priesthood blessings, a miracle when his sister recovered quickly after a seizure, his baptism and the Holy Ghost helping find lost items, temple baptisms, passing the sacrament, and how covenants help him make kinder choices and feel the Spirit.

In this episode, Hannah, age 12, joins to discuss the story of Joseph in Genesis and how God’s promises can be trusted when looking back and forward in life. They recap Joseph being betrayed and sold into Egypt, staying faithful through unfair trials, interpreting dreams, and ultimately leading Egypt to prepare for famine. The conversation breaks Joseph’s story into three lessons: being peacemakers in families (with “detective” questions and tools like pausing, using kind words, apologizing, and making a fix-it plan), trusting that “the Lord was with Joseph” during hardship, and resisting temptation by choosing what’s right and leaving risky situations. Hannah shares personal experiences with loss, unkind friends, prayer, temple baptisms, baptism feelings, recognizing Christ through the Spirit, and a family miracle, and closes with her testimony of Jesus Christ.

Anson, a nine-year-old guest, shares how reading the scriptures during hard times brings peace through the Spirit. The episode teaches two Genesis stories: Abraham’s servant prays for help finding a wife for Isaac, and Rebecca’s kindness and hard work—offering water to both the servant and his ten camels—shows God answering prayers through simple service. The discussion then connects Jacob’s dream of a ladder reaching heaven to the covenant path, comparing ordinances to steps: baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, the sacrament, the temple, temple covenants, and sealing families. Anson describes feelings from his baptism, times the Holy Ghost helped him, miracles answered through prayer, and encourages prayer, scripture study, repentance, and kindness.

In this episode, Marcus—one of the youngest but powerful Covenant Kids guests—talks about loving the scriptures and knowing Jesus is real. The host teaches faith and trust in God through Abraham and Sarah’s miracle of Isaac, Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice, and how God provided a ram, pointing to Jesus as the Lamb of God. They also review Lot’s wife looking back and discuss leaving wrong choices behind, everyday sacrifices like obedience and telling the truth, and preparing for baptism by making covenants and following Jesus.

In this podcast episode, a very wise 9-year-old Clark, shares his love of reading and the scriptures, including his favorite story of Helaman’s stripling warriors and how it strengthens his faith. Together, the host and Clark study Abraham’s story: Jehovah’s promise to lead Abraham “by the hand,” Abraham’s rescue from wicked priests, and the covenant promises of priesthood, land, and blessings to all families of the earth through Abraham’s family. They discuss how covenants connect us to Jesus Christ and bring security and strength, using the image of holding hands while walking through a dark cave. Clark talks about being baptized, receiving the Holy Ghost, and a personal experience where he ignored a warning and got hurt, teaching the importance of listening to the Spirit. The conversation also covers Abraham and Lot’s conflict over land, choosing peace over contention, and practical ways to be a peacemaker through solutions and empathy.
