116. A Very Special Kind of Fruit
Monday - May 4, 2026
We’re back and kicking off a brand-new series about a very special kind of fruit. A tomato vine that Dan picked up at Maker's Garden helps us picture how God makes this fruit grow in our lives.
Discussion Question(s)
• What kind of “fruit” do you think God wants us to grow with our lives?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you that you grow good fruit in our lives. You call this a blessing, and it’s a blessing not only for us but for the world around us as well. Help us to stay connected to you because you are the vine that makes the fruit grow. Amen.

115. Impromptu Block Party
Friday - April 10, 2026
With a day of beautiful weather on deck, Dan expects most of the town will out for an evening of fun and community. We also reflect on the call to share the message of Easter with others.
Discussion Question(s)
• If you had been there with Mary Magdalene, and you saw Jesus, how do you think you would feel?
• What is one small action you can take this next week that feels like something God might want you to do?
• Have you seen any signs of new growth or new life this week?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for all the ways we’ve been able to reflect on and celebrate Easter. What happened that Sunday changed the world, and it continues to change us. Especially this time of year, we are surrounded by signs of new life. Help us notice them and may they remind us of what you’re doing in our lives. Amen.

114. Signs of New Life
Thursday - April 9, 2026
Dan's on the mend, and so is the weather. Inspired by Mrs. Quackerson sitting patiently on her eggs, Dan introduces the concept of sanctification — becoming more and more like Jesus, slowly, over time, by practicing what we know we're supposed to do and trusting God with the rest.
Discussion Question(s)
• Can you think of a time when you’ve had to wait, trusting that something good is coming?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for this day and for all of your blessings. Whether today is an easy day or a tough day, we know you’re right there with us - encouraging us and helping us. Help us practice loving you, loving others, and loving ourselves today, so we can take one more tiny step in the direction you’ve laid out for us. Amen.

Wednesday - April 8, 2026
Get your art supplies ready because it’s Draw a Bird Day! Even if you don’t think of yourself as a great artist, you can still use the creativity God gave you to have some fun. We also have an exciting update from the Village Green pond!
Discussion Question(s)

Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for activities like drawing pictures. You’re a creative God, and you placed within all of us a creative spirit. Even if we don’t think of ourselves as artists, we can still use this gift in other ways or just for fun. Amen.

112. Sad and Glad
Tuesday - April 7, 2026
Dan's feeling under the weather, but still riding high from Easter. He introduces the idea of "bittersweet" — holding sadness and joy at the same time — and connects it to the story of Jesus weeping at the tomb of his friend Lazarus, even though he was about to bring him back to life.
Discussion Question(s)
• Can you think of something that has happened to you or someone you know that is bittersweet?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for the good news of Easter. At the same time, there are still things in this life that are hard to carry. Help us remember that we can be both sad and joyful at the same time - just as you were with your friend Lazarus. Amen.

On Easter, God proved that the power of life and love is stronger than anything. When we show love, we are wielding a true super power.
Discussion Question(s)
• Do you think a story where love is the most powerful force of all would end in a good way or bad way, and why?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for the message of Easter - that your life and love are the best and most powerful forces in the universe. We thank you too that you allow us to be a part of how you love the world. Show us where we can make a difference today. Amen.

110. Good Friday
Friday - April 3, 2026
As Jesus prays in the Garden of Gethsemane, we see that Jesus allows himself to die on the cross, not because he wanted to, but because he loved us so much and trusted God to be faithful. We also wrap up the entire season of Lent with some reflection questions.
Discussion Question(s)
• Of the themes we’ve looked at over the last six weeks, which is easiest for you and which is hardest?
• As you think back over the events of Holy Week, which part do you wish you could’ve been there for?
• Is there anything you’d like to say to Jesus?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for the time we’ve spent preparing our hearts for Easter. It’s about so much more than celebrating a holiday with baskets of eggs and candy. It’s an opportunity to remember that you love us more than anyone else ever could, and that you proved your love for us by giving up your life. May we see it, believe it, and be transformed by it. Amen.

Thursday - April 2, 2026
Dan shares about a special meal with family before telling the story of Jesus’s Last Supper. It was a night of dirty feet, broken bread, and a love so big it changed how we gather around every table.
Discussion Question(s)
• Can you think of a special experience you’ve had with your family or friends? How did it make you feel?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for special meals and special people. When we are in meaningful moments, help us to slow down enough to recognize it. And may your generosity toward us inspire us to love others as you have loved us. Amen.

107. Why Did Jesus Do It?
Tuesday - March 31, 2026
Dan walks through three ways the Bible helps us understand why Jesus died — as a gift of love, a bridge that brings us close to God, and a daring rescue plan. Even when the answers aren’t simple, God’s love shines through.
Discussion Question(s)
• Did any of these ideas - that God loves us, that God builds a bridge to reach us, or that God had a great rescue plan - sound good to you?
• Do you want to learn more about any of them?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for everything Jesus did for us. We all probably still have lots of questions, but that doesn’t bother you. If you loved us enough to rescue us, you surely love us enough to be patient as we learn and grow. Amen.
