Donuts and Devos

Sodom and Gomorrah - two cities that received a big dose of judgment from God! The people lived sinfully and wickedly, and the Lord saw it. God saw the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah as a big problem, and a decision was made to solve it – they needed to be destroyed. But in His mercy and for Abraham's sake, God saved Lot and his family from destruction.

In our devotion this week on the podcast, we focus on the more positive message of the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham intercedes on behalf of the city of Sodom, and God once again demonstrates His faithfulness and desire to save His people, not destroy them!

God visits Abraham in a special theophany or, manifestation, as He came to Abraham in human form with two angels. They appeared to Abraham, ate with him, and finally give a date on when the promise of a baby would finally happen for Abraham and Sarah. Yet Sarah laughs in disbelief. We take a closer look at the "clues" from Genesis 18 to figure out the importance of these visitors on this week's episode.

What’s in a name? We all have names. You know someone cares for you if you have a name—your parents or guardians gave you your name as a sign of their love. They chose your name especially for you!  Some people don’t like their names, so they change it, or they are known by a nickname. But having a name means you are loved! On our podcast this week, God shows us the importance of names as He gives Abram a new name with a very special meaning.

God's covenant with Abram was not to be taken lightly. Abram waited many years, childless, wondering how these amazing promises God made him were actually going to come true! But when God makes a promise, a divine covenant, He never backs down! Join us as we take a closer look at what exactly God promised Abram and how God "cut" his covenant with him.

We are back with brand new shows of Season 2 for Donuts and Devos! We kick off our new season in this episode, where we learn how God chose Abram to become the "father of all nations". But what made Abram so special that God picked him out of everybody else? Absolutely nothing! God shows us that's it not by our doing that we can be saved but by grace, through Him!

We wrap up Season 1 of our podcast by looking back at the Bible stories we've learned about in the beginning of Genesis. From Creation to Adam and Eve, to Noah and the people at Babel, God's constant love for His people shines through as He keeps His promise to send the Savior to save us.

Our show features our Memory Verses put to music by Ms. Baker and a "Roasting Seat" segment that will test our young listeners knowledge of what we've learned this season.

The people of Babel wanted to make a name for themselves. They wanted to reach heaven by their own hand by building a huge tower that would bring them to God. But once again, God shows them that it's only through His Word and plan that we can get into heaven.

This week's show dives into the story of the Tower of Babel, as the people's babbling amongst themselves gets them into trouble with God! He keeps His promise and doesn't flood the earth, but He does get creative and changes all the languages!

Be sure to grab the activity sheet and coloring page for kids to do as they listen to the show.

The rainbow that we see after a storm is such a beautiful sight, but the world seems to have forgotten its meaning and purpose. After the Flood, God made a covenant with Noah: He promised to never flood the world again and destroy all flesh. The rainbow is God's visible sign of His everlasting promise! Not only do we see it, but God sees it and is reminded of His promise also.

The Bible story of Noah and the Flood is a kid favorite in Sunday school. We "dive" into this story more and study how God cleansed the earth from the corrupt people, saving Noah and his family!
