June 12th: Don’t Fall Out the Window: Staying Focused on God | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus
Today on Carpooling with Jesus, we’re talking about a true story from the Bible that’s both surprising and unforgettable — a boy named Eutychus literally fell asleep during a late-night sermon… and fell out of a third-story window. 😴💥
📖 Key Verse: “And a young man named Eutychus... sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.” — Acts 20:9
But don’t worry — the story doesn’t end there. God worked a miracle.
🧠 Big Idea:
God can work through our accidents — but He calls us to be present, alert, and ready to listen.
🏡 In this episode:
Why church was held in houses in Bible times
What it felt like to be packed into a hot upper room with oil lamps
A teenage boy who tried to stay focused… but just couldn’t keep his eyes open
How Paul responded, how God moved, and how it all points back to grace
💡 Practical Takeaways for Kids:
Get good sleep before church or time with Jesus
Leave devices behind so you can focus
Bring a notebook or doodle during teaching to stay engaged
📝 Family Discussion Question:
What’s one thing you can do this week to show up fully and focus better when it’s time to learn about Jesus?
🎙️ Parents: If this story made your kid laugh or helped spark a great conversation, share the podcast on social and tag @carpoolingwithJesus to help other families discover it too!
