In today’s episode of the Tiny Theologians Easter series, we visit the temple in Jerusalem and discover the meaning behind the dove. Join TJ and Tory as they learn what it really means that Jesus “cleansed” the temple—not by scrubbing it clean, but by clearing out what didn’t belong. As they explore this moment, they begin to see how much Jesus cares about true worship and honoring God’s presence. Today’s symbol is the dove, which reminds us of God’s Spirit and His presence with His people. Through this story, we learn that Jesus was preparing the way for something greater—that through His death and resurrection, God would no longer dwell only in a building, but in His people by His Spirit.

Scripture Passage: Matthew 21:12–13 (NIV)
